202110080900|Book of Wishes
October 8, 2021 Friday 9:00 AM
Magic Bakery

One day at the Magic Bakery...

Ivy: Here you go, Little Red. It is... Ivy: The Book of Wishes.
LRRH: It is so cute! With this I can keep track of people's wishes!
Vivi: If that's all you wanted couldn't you use any notebook?
LRRH: Yes, but a gift makes it a special treasure. Thank you, Ivy! Little Red Riding Hood thanks Ivy.
Ivy: Actually it is more than just a notebook. Try opening it.
LRRH: Wow, it already has people's wishes in it! ** (Book shows Red's wish) ** // Red's overall wish: A culture of fulfilling wishes // Resolution 1: A simple story book // Resolution 2: Routine with Quest
Ivy: Every page is a screen connected to the backend. ** (Book shows Ivy's wish) ** // Ivy's overall wish: Populate Book of Knowledge // Ivy's Resolution: Have it used as a reference. That is so overkill.
LRRH: Vivi, what is your wish?
Vivi: I won't bother myself with that. Besides, wasn't there a saying that if you tell others your wish, then it won't come true?
LRRH: The saying is there, but I tell my wish and people help me fulfill it. So if you tell me yours I will help you make it true.
Vivi: If you tell others your wish, you also let others sabotage it. Right, Vivi had a very game-of-throne-y life. But it's okay. There is a lot of time for you to decide what you want to do from now on.
LRRH: When Kisaragi came she also had no clue. She stayed and everything works out fine. It has been almost a year now.
Vivi: So has she found her wish?
Kisaragi: My wish? I wish to stay here and keep cooking for everyone. Zero ambition.
LRRH: If your wish is simple, you will be happy every day.
Kisaragi: Since everyone seems to be making a book, maybe I should make one too. That'd be awesome!
LRRH: Vivi, that reminds me, since I know you and you are talking to me in this book, you have earned some credits. I should show you on the board too.
Vivi: I don't get the enthusiasm about the quests. It's not like there's any real reward for doing it…
LRRH: Vivi you have 3 points. The graph shows you at the bottom. But this is not a competition. Everyone starts at the bottom. **Disturbed** Who is Ledia? She is a paladin that comes sometimes. She doesn't live here... I don't think you have ever met her. ** Sulks and walks out of the room **
LRRH: Ivy, what was that about? Vivi was a queen. She is not used to seeing herself at the bottom. She wants to beat Ledia. In scores, I meant. Should we not show the scores of new people? There is no problem with the leaderboard. It is functioning as designed. ** (Just as planned) **

202110102037|CH24 Plan
October 10, 2021 Sunday 8:37 PM
Magic Bakery

The organization for CH 24 seems too overwhelming, how can it be simplified?

Tanya: The subtitle “100 ways to do good and feel good about it” doesn't match the contents listed in the TOC. What do you really want to include in this book?
Natalie: I want to make a book about doing good. It is good for others and a great source of happiness. It gives people purpose and energy. I want to share this to those who have not discovered this hobby in life, and help those who are already doing it to keep doing it without getting burned out.
Tanya: I think the purpose of your book is to motivate in two stages: 1. To persuade the reader from doing nothing to doing good; and 2. To reward someone who is doing good with tips to keep going. Are you okay with the book having only these two parts instead of the current five parts? Yes
Tanya: You could still mention the definition and concepts in passing, but they don't need their own sections since they are not the focus. The focus of the first part is on someone who has not been doing good or doesn't know that they have been doing good. I wonder how to actually go about persuading someone who is doing nothing to do good. To me it is like a game. But you are self-motivated. The question is how would someone become self-motivated?
Sasha: How about we bring the game to them? If you give yourself a pat in the back, then we will give them a pat in the back when they do something good. That could get them started. Then once they get used to it, they would start patting themselves. "
Natalie: Bring the game to them. I think that is a great idea, Sasha. “Challenge yourself to become a better self.” New organization: Part 1: From doing nothing to doing good. Part 2: From doing good to doing better."
Sasha: Natalie, I just read what P4 talked about regarding her music book. She said instead of aiming to write about what she wants others to know, she will write what she finds useful for herself. So I was wonder, if you write this book, does it help you?
Natalie: Not really, it is second nature. And it is not like I would carry a book around when I try to do something. That seems like a red flag. If what you are trying to write is not useful for you, it might end up being not useful to anyone. Hmm… I see.
Evelyn: I think this book or the topic is useful for me. A little bit earlier, I was trying to write a manual on when to and how to response to online discussions. But that content doesn't really fit with what I want to write about in my book, which is happiness. I think the manual content would fit really well here. Umm. Then aren't you hijacking Natalie's project? I don't mind, the more the merrier. We get MORE points for having more participants! And, rules of engagement is a paladin concept.
Tanya: If you are accepting topics, I would want to read an actual paladin manual. Then you could keep your tone and talk about the subject like a recruiter.
Natalie: Book of Paladins! I think that topic is more intuitive to me.
Tanya: What is your perspective on being a paladin?
Natalie: Paladins are both at the frontline and last line of defending peace. We de-escalate and end physical confrontations. We stop fights. We watch for and eliminate physical threats. We encourage everyone to be aware of threats because an alert citizenry keeps everyone safe. Are you the police? What is the difference? Paladins do not exist to “enforce the law”. We only exist for mutual protection. Everyone can be a paladin and get paladin certificates and do paladin quests. Again, we encourage everyone to train and get paladin skills. Even if you don't do paladin quests, your understanding what we do makes paladin quests easier.
Sasha: I don't really like doing physical things though.
Natalie: But you would be interested in solving crimes yes? Ooo murder mysteries!!!
Evelyn: We are kids! 😖 I didn't say anything. She already knew.
Sasha: Evelyn is more like the police than Natalie. That is the kind of protection I don't need. I am sorry. I don't mean it in a bad way. I appreciate your trying to look after me, but I am strong and I can decide for myself what I don't like.
Natalie: Independence is strong with this one. That is a great trait to be a paladin. Sasha the detective! I like the sound of that!
Natalie: And Evelyn too. Evelyn is always cautious and has a keen eye to keep everyone safe. It is better to offer help and be rejected than to not offer at all to avoid rejections. Evelyn has her priorities right. Being so reliable and consistent are also highly sought traits to be paladins. 😊 Being able to see relevant skills in people is a good trait as a recruiter.
Natalie: Yes, the ever observant Tanya. We can count on Tanya to notice the smallest clue at a crime scene. Hold on, who makes the better detective? Tanya or I? Both, of course. Paladins work together and value healthy rivalry. Good competition brings the best work out of everyone. I hope something happens so we have a mystery to solve. Just saying.

202111070900|Black's Wish
November 7, 2021 Sunday 9:00 AM
Magic Bakery

Evelyn, today I want to check on people's wishes. I think we have collected enough wishes so I want to focus on fulfilling them. Black has been talking about wanting to buy a desk. But I don't see an order. Let's see what's going on. Okay.

Black: Oh, the desk. I haven't made up my mind because I planned to put a keyboard on a shorter desk under a desk. I think that it would help my posture, but I am not sure that I could type without looking at the keyboard.
Red: That seems like a very easy test. Let's find something to cover your hands over the keyboard… There. Now no one can see your hands, or the keyboard. Try typing something.
Black: It looks a bit intimidating. But apparently I can still type. I am not sure about the punctuations though. I don't know where the punctuation marks are… And there is not keypad, so typing number is also a problem.
Evelyn: But is it more comfortable this way?
Black: Yes it is. And less distracting because I don't see my moving fingers.
Evelyn: Do you feel that you can memorize the other keys?
Black: Possibly. I just realized that I can type the question mark without thinking where it is. I still can't type numbers accurately.
Red: I have an idea. How about you take a picture of the keyboard and put it on top of the top table. Then if you really forget where a key is you can just see that.
Black: That's a good idea. Or I could get a full-sized keyboard with a keypad. Let try first. Hmm… Looking at a photo isn't working all that well. I need to type many numbers. Being able to type numbers is important.
Red: Full size keyboard then.
Black: I really don't like full size keyboard though. It makes the mouse really far from the keyboard. Why didn't they make a keypad on the left side?
Evelyn: You can get a separate keypad.
Red: I got another idea. You can add texture to the number keys. If you can feel where 3 and 8 are, the other number keys are just two spaces from them.
Black: That's interesting. Let me put some tapes on… That is working quite well. Give me some random number to try. 1925.8 3706.3 5287.6
Black: It is faster than without tape, but still very slow. I might keep another keyboard on top where I can see just in case. But if I keep using that all the time it would be waste to get the shorter desk.
Evelyn: I think it is worth trying though. Even if you don't need the desk, I am sure it is useful in other ways.
Black: We already have other desks like that that no one uses. This one that I want to get is just shorter so that it could fit under the desk.
Red: Then are we forgetting something? The desk has wheels! If you really need to see your hands, you could just pull out the keyboard or the desk more.
Black: That's true. But doing that would add about a foot between me and the screen.
Evelyn: I think it is still worth trying.
Black: And I still can't decide…
Red: Black is that kind of person. He has problem deciding to spend money on himself. So if it were free that you would have tried? Yes.
V: There is a free table. This one. Next to the piano. It is pretty short.
Black: I forgot about this. It is the right height, but it has this ledge at the edge. It would get into the way of typing. And it has no wheels. If I try pulling it, it will probably make a horrible noise.
V: You could pad it up.
Black: I also have the alternative of just raising my seat. Then I don't need to buy any desk or keyboard.
V: Isn't it frustrating talking to this guy? His indecision is borderline pathological. 😅
Evelyn: What should we do, Red?
Red: Let's move on to the next person. At least we now know what's going on.
Evelyn: I hope you find a way that is comfortable. You deserve to be comfortable. Sorry to bother. I will try that short desk. Please do! 😃

November 14, 2021 Sunday 9:00 AM
Magic Bakery

The Wishpedition Team checks how Black is doing. So I tried to short desk. I really couldn't type correctly without seeing my keyboard. I ended up attaching a shorter keyboard and things seem fine. I learned that I am most comfortable sitting with my body touching the edge of the desk and have my elbows resting on the desk. So my wish is fulfilled. We don't need to buy a new desk. Thank you for trying. Red, whose wish is next? Let's go through the 2021 New Year's resolution and see who needs help. Here they are.

2021 New Year's Resolutions
LRRH: A culture of fulling wishes | A simple story book | A routine with quest
James: Free'ku
Natalie: Good Deeds tracking and rubric
P4: To end the pandemic
Casey: To build her own house
Evelyn: To have lasting friends
Sasha: To beat Tanya in a game
Zoey: To be popular
Tanya: To Grow, acknowledgement of growth
3B: Draw everyone's story
Ivy: Populate the book of knowledge and have it used as a reference
Black: Study for Japanese N3 test
Evelyn: I don't understand some of them. But mine is fulfilled. It is not something that others need to help me fulfill.
LRRH: Two of mine are fulfilled. Let's check on James. He wants to write Free'ku. What is a Free'ku? Let's ask the master.
James: A free'ku is a haiku about freedom. A haiku is a poem that follows a 5 syllables, 7 syllables and 5 syllables format.
Evelyn: I've never written a poem before, is it difficult?
James: Free'ku means freedom // It is as hard as you want // Let's give it a try!
Evelyn: I am Evelyn // Giving Free'ku my first try // Thank you for teaching
James: Congrats Evelyn! // Here presents your free'ku badge. // May your rhymes fly free!
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7_FUHCr8gqtPIugLAZJU7auOWWexseR6eFlbq26lHzpUj1NOkqDjgG22b7ccOvXx0Q0vLyojpsNh1583aQHsf3tluEuyWnxjGL31KOgUmevOlzLmShrA9WOYLeT4Yn9f0toi13dvzrgNDYzD5hCLIYhxyTJN5M5-aFcPlLN0SAIDFXyN6LlSVYv88SQ/s1600/20211114%20-%20Freeku.png"}
Evelyn has received a Free'ku badge.
Evelyn: It's a badge! Our first badge! I've got to tell my friends. I can't be the only one having this!
LRRH: Magic Bakery // Promote freedom for a badge // Don't you want one too?
Ivy: Dad, what's going on?
James: Just chilling and giving badges.
Ivy: That's just a prototype!
James: Not any more.
You will never know // How ready you really are // Until you try it. James receives That was... Arcacia Award (*Link to 2021-11-14 Scoring Discussion*) ! James got an Arcacia Award! I am so making a badge for that for myself.
Public Locker
[202111152002]

202111152002|Public Lock
2021 NOV 15 MON 8:02 PM
Puzzle Plaza

This is about a puzzle: Sasha: Jim and Sarah are in a long-distance relationship. Jim buys an engagement ring for Sarah and wants to mail it to her. Unfortunately, the only way to ensure the ring will be received is to place a lock on the package. Jim has locks and Sarah has locks, but neither has keys for each other’s locks. How can they make sure the ring isn’t stolen? Sasha: And the answer is the following. Don't read it if you don't want spoilers. Sasha: Answer: The ring is sent through the mail multiple times. First, Jim puts a lock on the package and sends it to Sarah. Then, Sarah places one of her locks on the package and sends it back to Jim. Then, Jim removes his lock and sends the package back to Sarah. Finally, Sarah unlocks the package and gets the ring.

Sasha: I don't get it. Keep reading if you don't mind spoilers. Sasha: The solution requires the ring to be sent 3 times. Sarah could just send her open lock to Jim, then Jim can lock the box with her lock. Tanya: I also don't understand the solution. Maybe it was simplified from some computer protocol. Now it doesn't make sense. Sasha: So we agree that it is a bad puzzle. Tanya: I agree. StarTree: It would make sense if the box is not a box but a public locker. Jim locks the locker with his lock and tell Sarah about it. Then Sarah comes with her lock and locks it and notifies Jim. Then Jim comes to unlock his lock and tells Sarah to come unlock hers one last time! Sasha: Ooo it is so shady. I like it. Let’s change the puzzle. Tanya: I see an improvement. But if I see a locker with two locks I would be suspicious. StarTree: StarTree did her best! Tanya: 👍

202112021000|Wish Story #4
December 2, 2021 Thursday 10:00 AM
Wishpedition

We were chatting at Daily Quest just before we came back to here at @Wish.

LRRH: I want @Wish to contain standalone stories so I want it to have its own thread.
Ledia: For those wondering, the Daily Quest is a game we are playing at Magic Bakery. In that game, the Evil Queen Vivi is taking over the world unless the heroes defend each location by updating their corresponding project. So, if we sound too gungho about trying to fulfill people's wishes, that's the reason. Oh, and by the way, I am Ledia, an EXP hungry DPS in that game.
Evelyn: Hi, I am Evelyn. I was helping Red on her quest to check everyone's new year resolution before we had the Daily Quest game.
LRRH: So Ledia was saying it is hard to fulfill someone's wish in one sitting. That's true. And that's part of the reason I want a different thread. With a different thread, I can time skip to the next point when there is progress on fulfilling the wish.
Ledia: Then you are essentially having a thread for each player then?
LRRH: Except for those whose wish is already fulfilled or don't need help. It would be weird for a section to just have a line saying their wish is fulfilled or they don't need help.
Tanya: I have a wish that you could fulfill today. I want to make some changes to the Daily Quest Game. What changes?
Tanya: The purpose of the game to promote peacemaking activities for those who wouldn't have done those activities otherwise. It should not take away from those who are already doing peacemaking activities. Do you agree? Yes?
Tanya: I feel that the current game is drawing attention away from more important peacemaking activities because the peacemaking contents of each project is not the same. The update tracker sees each project as if they are equal, but that is not correct. With about 20 projects on the tracker, even if we update each one every week, each project would only get updated once a week. I think some projects should be updated more often.
LRRH: Which projects do you think should update more often?
Tanya: I think @Seed, @Concept, and @Carrot. @Seed is the main project where we describe the whole system of what we are doing so others can replicate. That is the most important. @Concept helps us debate and spread our peace ideas. And @Carrot is currently our most promising project to spread our idea in a fun way.
Tanya: @Cardinal, our gamification project, should focus on drawing people's effort to working on those three projects. The rest of the projects do not need an update tracker. They exist to support the main peacemaking efforts. Tanya receives
LRRH: Hmm. I understand what you mean. There might be some debate on which projects is worthy to be tracked. But let's bring @Vivi to the discussion because she is running the Daily Quest.
Vivi: You are making me come read your log at @Wish, when you could have just kept the conversation at @Cardinal. Sorry…?
Ledia: Although it does feel really quiet, almost zen here.
LRRH: You are sitting with Little Red Riding Hood the Sage on a picnic mat at a warm hill somewhere out there at the expedition.
Vivi: I read it. I am not trying to be a dictator, and I think you can make such changes as part of the game at @Cardinal. There is nothing stopping people from casting Sanctuary on each project they feel they don't need tracking. And, you don't have to care about the “Panic Level”, you could just ignore it and update whatever project as you see fit.
Sasha: Sasha followed the Queen the found them at the mountains way out. It seems that the Queen is about to duel Tanya.
Ledia: I think the Queen is correct. The bottom line is anyone may just ignore the Daily Quest and update what they want. There is no bonus doing the quests DQ lists, and no actual penalty when the “game world” is in panic.
Tanya: My wish is that similar to how you pin @Cardinal to be on every day, could you also pin a quest from the “important” category?
Vivi: I can discuss more if we return to @Cardinal. This white background is hurting my eyes. (Editor's note: This conversation took place at Google Slides with a white background.) Tanya follows Vivi back to @Cardinal.
Ledia: Well?
LRRH: I suppose we all go back to Cardinal?
Ledia: Vivi is so powerful now it eclipses Red.
LRRH: @Cardinal is her charter. She is not doing anything out of line. And I am already used to being a bakery guild master when hardly anyone bakes. Let's go back to @Cardinal.
To be continued. (?)

202112032024|Let's Try Blogger
2021 DEC 03 FRI 8:24 PM
Magic Bakery

Dear Bakers,
The internet connection is still quite unstable, but we were able to squeeze in some updates to know that current status. Yesterday, the main quest party managed to end Queen Vivi's seizure of daylight, and Tanya said she was going to make some changes about the game to help people focus on the quality instead of the quantity of updates. But I haven't seen her plan yet. So, for those who still care about the panic level, the current chapter in danger are: @Book, @Paladin, and @Puzzle.
Happy Friday,
Little Red Riding Hood

Patricia has defended the library by herself again!
Ledia: So I take it that we will use Blogger exactly the same way as how we have been using Google Slides? Keeping all messages for the daily quest in one thread? Unless someone suggests another way. Then unless someone explains what should change I will be doing the same thing as usual and try to update the least updated chapter. But here at Blogger the screen is too bland. Back at @Cardinal the screen was more compact and intense. That was more interesting to me.
StarTree: For the confused reader, the screen that is more interesting to Ledia is this: It might take some time to adjust the theme. Let's give it a try before we give up. For @Paladin, I will answer the question "What is the difference between Paladins and Vigilantes?" Ledia receives StarTree: Ledia gets Arcacia Award for mentioning that paladins travel! {"cmd":"url","url":"https://tinyurl.com/MB24Paladin#slide=id.g10616988e8e_0_0","desc":"🔗"} Ledia has fended off Vivi's minions at Paladin HQ.
Evelyn: I wish that Tanya would come explain her plan. I am feeling lost without knowing what our goal is for daily quest... Tanya was trying to reduce our stress, but with us switching to blogger there will be even more work. Discussing what to do will probably take more than one quest slot.

December 6, 2021 Monday 7:36 AM
Vivi's Castle

Queen Vivi woke up from her slumber. "Cardinal, how many hit points do I have?" Vivi has 1 hit point out of 3 hit points.
Vivi: Queen Vivi is displeased. A whole day has passed but she did not recover any hit point. "StarTree. Explain."

StarTree: StarTree doesn't know the rules, but found some clues on how Cardinal might work! StarTree shows Queen Vivi the result (Charter 30) locating the buried castle.
Vivi: Queen Vivi looked at the detailed result. She would have been happy except for one enchantment that was apparently present restraining the Cardinal Castle:
Vivi: "Low Stress Gameplay: While the game provides a platform as a reward for peacemakers to play, with in-game activities not necessarily eligible for earning peacemaker EXP, the Engine shall have mechanism against over-indulgence in the game itself. The stress level created by the game itself shall not be more than that of current events occurring at the time of play."
Vivi: Although the magical seal was written in alien language, the One-And-Only-Truly-Out-of-this-world embodiment of perfection Queen Vivi has no trouble deciphering its true meaning.
Vivi: We found the Cardinal Castle underground, but its true power is still sealed. The seal is preventing its power to be used to bring terror to the world, to say the least. But Queen Vivi would not be satisfied with simply being an Entertainer for the Heroes. Queen Vivi decides that she will find a way to use the Cardinal for her own purpose, and not be a tool used by the Cardinal. Vivi receives
Vivi: Cardinal, you shall address me as Queen Vivi. Vivi is now known as Queen Vivi.
Vivi: Cardinal, who is the perfection of this world? Perfection is undefined.
Vivi: Cardinal, I am the perfection of this world. Queen Vivi is the perfection of this world.
Vivi: Mwahahahaha!
Vivi: Cardinal, what are the rules regarding my hit points? Why didn't I heal? There is only a rule that a player may not fully recover the next day after KO. Black receives
Vivi: Cardinal, is it true that Heal and Revive do not work for villains? That is False. Cardinal receives
StarTree: StarTree is confused! Is Cardinal a player? Should StarTree keep score for Cardinal also? StarTree thinks that she probably should since the Cardinal is probably a being similar to herself! If something can get Arcacia Award, then it is a player! StarTree receives
Vivi: Cardinal, is it true that a villain can be a peacemaker? That is True.
Vivi: Queen Vivi got an idea on how she could heal herself.
StarTree: StarTree reminds Queen Vivi that she could attack a location without being there herself! All she needed to do is to assign a target, then the minions will attack while she remains at the Cardinal Castle!
Vivi: Queen Vivi is not interested in attacking without being able to see a war map and a war banner. "Make me a war map, then a war banner. Then the Queen shall consider entertaining the world with her prowess."
StarTree: Yes, Queen Vivi!

December 9, 2021 Thursday 11:00 PM
Arx Catacomb

The party gathered at Arx Catacomb where Tanya wants to show Evelyn her plan of using the Catacomb as a training place against evil beings.

Before we start, may I suggest that we stop referring to Cardinal as that gate? That... gate has a special meaning so it is offensive to some people. Alright, I'm sorry.
Sasha: Casey, how did you get here?
Casey: What do you mean? I logged on.
Sasha: Where were you in the game world before you got here?
Casey: It seemed like a long time ago, I don't quite remember. Why? Tanya has reconnected the teleport crystal at Pirate Bay and World Tree.
Zoey: By the way, I think Casey was at the Plaza last time. So ARP won't have done anything.
Evelyn: Sasha, we are on the same team... aren't we?
Sasha: Let me think. Nope, not really. My game role is still an agent of Queen Vivi.
Evelyn: But if we are playing in character, we won't let you join our party.
Sasha: Then what are you going to do? Are you going to kick me out?
Evelyn: ...
Sasha: Cardinal, AES. Emotional Safeguard module activated. Emotional distress detected for Evelyn. Evelyn takes 1 psychic damage. Evelyn now has 1 hit point.
Zoey: Sasha, that's mean!
Sasha: I am in-character, and this IS the training ground. My character alignment is Evil, same as Queen Vivi. In the game, that is.
Zoey: OMG, Sasha is the BOSS this time!
Tanya: That was not my plan. I didn't see that coming. I'm sorry. Should we KO Sasha first? It is 4 v 1.
Sasha: Let's see if you can! Sasha takes a critical hit for 2 damages. Sasha is now KO'ed.
Sasha: Overkill. Ouch.
Casey: Wait, who did that?
Zoey: I haven't done anything yet. Was that a spell attack? The only magic users here are Evelyn and Sasha.
Evelyn: I didn't do it...
Sasha: Murder Mystery!
Casey: Are we sure Sasha didn't just KO herself to trick us? We can't trust her character if she is evil.
Zoey: What is her motive though?
Tanya: Maybe she wanted us to argue and blame each other for her KO.
Evelyn: I am not going to blame anyone. That would be mean for me to do so because the whoever it was that did this was just trying to protect us... protect me. Evelyn receives Evelyn's emotional distress is relived. Evelyn now has 2 hit points.
Sasha: Did Arcacia KO me?
Tanya: I think no one here knows except Cardinal. If we are not lying, we are just guessing.
Sasha: Cardinal, don't say it. I want to guess.
Tanya: We are not here for that kind of puzzle.
Evelyn: Tanya, what were you trying to show me? Let's see that first.
Tanya's Plan
Tanya: As some of you may know, my chapter @Concept is about peacemaking concepts. In that chapter I include terms and philosophy both for and against peace. When it is "my turn", I would pick a concept from the backlog and posts it as a BOSS. Then each of us may come up with their best response, and together, we see whether we have a good answer to beat the BOSS (address the prompt).
Tanya: During that exercise, it is us who may roleplay and define what kind of boss could be a fitting personification of the prompt. Without our interpretation, the prompt itself is just a question. But our personification of it turns that into a roleplay game element. As we identifying more bosses and the kind of skills that defeat them, we are also personifying the solutions to the prompts, and turning the information into more memorable stories.
Zoey: I don't remember what the question was last time, but I remembered that I one-shot the boss. I went Legolas on that boss. What did you do to come up with the your response.
Zoey: The prompt said something so I looked up whether it was true. I fact-checked. Then I made a counter argument, that the fear that prompt made had no ground, because the United States has arguably the most powerful military and it is an all-voluntary force. Oh, now I remembered the prompt. The prompt was, "You can't reward people enough to serve in the military". It was trying to say that if we don't force people to serve in the military, there won't be enough people serving in the military to protect a country. That... fear didn't pass fact check. Zoey receives
Tanya: How did you feel when you beat the boss?
Zoey: I felt like I might be good at answering that kind of questions. I wanted to do it again, with others, so I... I know who KO'ed Sasha! XD Don't say it! I'm still guessing!
Tanya: Does it help if every time you fact check against a boss, I say that you are drawing an arrow and taking aim?
Zoey: A mnemonic device! I have a quiver of fact checking! Zoey receives Tanya receives
Casey: I can picture it too.
Tanya: What kind of boss do you think you defeated?
Zoey: Maybe some kind of cowardly mage, it was creating an illusion that didn't pass fact-check. What do others think?
Casey: I think you pictured quite well. I could see a witch doctor type monster. They attack with lies.
Evelyn: It could just ignorance if they didn't mean to deceive anyone. They simply don't know any better. But with facts, we can give the real healing. Are we fighting or are we healing.
Evelyn: I see us fighting off things that keep a person from being good, truthful, and knowledgeable. Ignorance and fear are status effects debilitating a person's potential. I don't think fighting sentient humanoid could pass Evelyn's test.
Evelyn: I prefer not. I am okay with cutesy representation, such as when defeated enemies are sent back to their home or they repent and turn into good character we can party with. And I am okay with fighting and sealing evil spirits to save the people affected by them. I am okay with the sealing away evil part of Cardinal's story. I don't get why we need to release evil just to seal them again. Especially not in our game world. Our game world should be a sanctuary so that people who come here don't have to worry about or being on guard of evil spirits possessing people.
Zoey: Then we are fighting non-physical things. Arrows against non-physical things...
Casey: You can have magical arrows.
Evelyn: Isn't it better to just use magic? Getting hit by arrow is... painful. Even if we agree that there is no pain system, just hit points being deducted.
Zoey: In other words, a non-violent Dungeon Crawl.
Evelyn: That would be better... and closer to reality if we are talking about concepts. In a real discussion you can't settle an argument by fighting, but if you maintain an attitude to help people who are confused, or are ignorant about something, then you can help them without calling that evil. They are not evil people. They are affected by biases and deeply rooted fears from their experiences. We should save them, not fight them.
Tanya: In Evelyn's eyes, this is an exorcising activity. We are dispelling evil spirits and illnesses affecting people's wellbeing and judgement.
Evelyn: I prefer that interpretation.
Casey: I think exorcising is still very awesome. I do prefer being able to land a hit on something solid instead of swinging the air though.
Evelyn: If you can hit them, they can hit you.
Casey: Is it okay if we are fighting undead? We are at a catacomb.
Evelyn: I am more okay with that as long as it is not graphical. I prefer not to promote and celebrate destruction. I prefer not to promote people looking forward to... fighting other humanoid or sentient beings.
Tanya: I think this is a good time to return to our bonus challenge. Evelyn, you said you don't blame the person who KO'ed Sasha, but how would you have dealt with it?
Evelyn: In our game, KO'ing someone is acceptable to me because it is really a skill-activated Timeout button. We are asking Sasha to stop hurting a fellow player in the game. It is like Sasha got tranquilized. Please don't force me to think about what I would do if Sasha really tries to hurt us.
Tanya: Cardinal, please refer to this discussion for maintaining a game world that Evelyn accepts.
Cardinal: Acceptable theme is now defined and can be enforced by invoking Cardinal command "Acceptable Theme Violation (ATV)". Defining Evil Quest is now Completed.
Cardinal: Is anyone still guessing who KO'ed Sasha?
Sasha: I think I know who did it.
Evelyn: May I come up with my guess later? It is late now.
🌒 The date has changed. Daily Quest for Thursday December 9, 2021 is now closed.
Sasha is revived with 1 hit point.
Sasha: Cardinal, Pixie. Initiating player exhaustion check. Casey, Evelyn, Sasha, Tanya, Zoey are exhausted. They are now KO'ed.
Evelyn: Sweet dreams, Sasha.


Q: Should @Seed be its own blog?

Freedom Plaza


A Sight to Behold! // New Dawn At Freedom Plaza // Where Heroes are Made

After defeating Queen Vivi and her invasion force, James the dictator governor had decided that there was no respectable town plaza without a statue of the town's hero, which shall be none but the revered forever-incumbent self-elected governor James himself. Being a hulk figure himself, he decided that the statue shall be at least twice as tall as himself and be made with all metal, which happened to be in short supply in order to rebuild the town. Therefore, he created a quest for Heroes to gather material. For the rebuilding, of course, according to the wording of the quest...

HEROES, WE NEED YOUR HELP!
To speed up the rebuilding process, please restore the supply chains to the following places. They are listed in none but alphabetical order, may our town be blessed by your wisdom:

The Academy: Our legendary blacksmith is missing. There is a rumor that she is still locked up by Queen Vivi. We need her back for rebuilding.

The Farms: Carrots are in short supply. We need them for draft animals.

The Harbor: Please check and increase security at the Harbor, and retrieve any stranded supplies.

The Lighthouse: Please check and repair the lighthouse at Cape Etherealis. 💗

The Pirate Bay: There are rumors that the Evil Queen Vivi had been looking for a ca3tographer to create a map for her evil plans. Please investigate and alert us of her plans.

Vacation Islands: Please check and retrieve rumored supplies and tools left there.

Teleport to most of those locations are not working. None other than HEROES like you know how to fix them. For further details please ask Ivy.
James receives
Ledia: Ledia arrives at the plaza and wishes that @Evelyn would be there.
StarTree: (Narrator) While waiting there, Ledia heard a telepathic voice: "Why don't you connect the teleport for everyone first?" Ledia does not recognize that voice. GM, how did that voice sound? StarTree is the GM? From my view, yes. StarTree is now recognized as a Magician. Wee~~!!
StarTree: (GM) The telepathy voice sounds like a young girl. It sounded soft, curious, and innocent. It was not a voice that Ledia could recognize.
Ledia: Ledia looks around for anything unusual.
StarTree: Ledia sees many people working around the plaza rebuilding. At the quest board, there is a young girl in a yellow cloak checking looking at the quest that Governor James had posted just a moment earlier. Ledia recognizes that as V.
Ledia: Ledia wants to remind the GM that although V doesn't speak often, Ledia would recognize V's voice.
StarTree: Ledia would recognize that the telepathy voice was different from V's voice or anyone who had spoken in Vacation Island.
Ledia: Ledia realized that she had never💗 heard Patricia spoke. Could that lady's voice be that of a young girl? Ledia receives
Ledia: GM, that hint was too obvious. It was not a hint! StarTree knows nothing!
StarTree: In the meantime, Ledia saw that P4 had joined V's party. The two were heading out.
Ledia: Ledia asks P4 where they are going.
P4: We are going to music practice. Nothing to do with James' quest? Nothing to do with it. See you later!
StarTree: P4 and V 's party had moved out, on V's ride.
Ledia: Ledia thought that the telepathic voice might belong to Patricia. As an oracle, Patricia might have farseeing and telepathy abilities. It seems that P4 and V might not have realized that the teleport system was down. So she started fixing the teleports for everyone while waiting for Evelyn. Teleport to Main Stage is now restored. Teleport to Vacation Island is now restored. Teleport to The Library is now restored. Patricia added a quote to the library:
When you discover your mission, you will feel its demand.
It will fill you with enthusiasm and a burning desire to get to work on it.
Ledia: Ledia thought, if Evelyn doesn't come she should start working on the new player designs. But at this moment, what was in her mind was to quest with Evelyn again since they were KO'ed at Ivy's lab. They really didn't notice how quickly time was passing. Patricia has defined the Alchemist skill Elemental Control. Patricia receives Patricia receives Kudos from Ledia: "Thank you for defining ALL elemental control skill in one entry, that has pretty much everything I need without defining each one separately."
Evelyn: Hi, Ledia. Have you waited long?
Ledia: Just enough for the best part of today. Ledia showed Evelyn the quest that James posted today. "Shall we quest?"

Q Should @Seed be its own blog? Status: @Seed Lv2 | 12 days cycle | 0 Issues | 3 Quests | Boss Lv 4

Tanya: I am thinking of eventually yes. For now, maybe it is better to just make posts and use the label "CH13" to mark the @Seed posts. One of those posts will be the table of content of what you want to present in the book. When you have a set that is complete, that is when it would make sense to "launch" and make a separate blog. The way you do it might be more different from mine because my chapter has less to do with us. Your chapter includes surveys and discussion of participant behaviors and feedback. Your chapter might end up staying here.
Zoey: What would be worse if I start another blog now?
Tanya: You might spend too much time on tweaking the style of the organizing the content. YMMV.
Zoey: I was thinking, if I start another blog and tweak just the appearance and style first, then I only have to transfer to content once, instead of from the old chapter to here, than to the new blog. I think @Concept can be a section in that same blog. So the Seed of Peace blog can include @Concept posts. The style of that blog will be professional looking with Royalty Free images. No Roleplay, no manga, no anime style drawing posts.
Tanya: That's a good plan. But I think I still want @Concept to be completely standalone. So unless you tell me, not only would your blog does not show our avatars, it also does not link to Magic Bakery Posts showing avatars, then I would have @Concept there. Otherwise, I would make @Concept to be its own blog, but you can link to it.
Zoey: I can't make that promise, I think it is more personal and convenient if give examples of how we use the game mods...
Tanya: Is it okay if you try to make a new blog? I might not add content to yours, but I could learn from yours to see what I want for mine. In the meantime I might just start a simple blog to transfer my existing chapter contents, and worry about the format later. I want a blog template that is simpler and faster transitioning between posts.
Zoey: In that case may I just style your new blog? I need content to test the layout.
Tanya: That's fine with me. Some of the Seed of Peace content would fall under my "Tactics" section, and possibly a "Schema" section that I don't yet have.
Zoey: That's fine with me also. I think @Concept is important. It would be a waste if it is held down just because it is ugly and not styled.
Tanya: RP ON: After talking to Zoey, the two formed an agreement to have Tanya's Starship be constructed at the World Tree, with the starting design done by Zoey.
Zoey: "Starship at World Tree" sounds so much like StarTree. Maybe we need a different name for the ship for roleplay?
Tanya: That's worth its own thread. Let's make a new post for our plan and naming.
Tanya: Summary of Plan:
Tanya: 1. @Concept needs its own blog to be isolated from roleplay with no links to roleplay
Tanya: 2. @Seed might also need its own blog isolated from roleplay, but its content might mention and link to roleplay and discuss how scores are kept and how players think about the game.
Tanya: 3. For now, Zoey will help Tanya format the new blog, while Tanya focus on adding content without worrying about the formatting (@Concept has a backlog in content).
Tanya: 4. For roleplay, the Starship needs name other than "that starship being built at World Tree". This question has been answered.


Natalie: we added a quiz feature! By the way, Ledia and I have answered all questions from the old chapter. Please keep asking questions if you have more. I can also roleplay if anyone needs help from more paladins in the story!


Zoey: I tried using the what Ivy added for @Arena manga script. I plan to add back the previous page (with drawing) and see how it would look. Ageless Forest

December 14, 2021 Tuesday 8:48 PM
Puzzle Time

Hey hey hey It's your puzzle master Mikela! Are you all ready for a puzzle? Would you deflect to Queen Vivi if we get it wrong? 😖 As far as I know, Queen Vivi is not attacking anyone anymore. So let's just play! Okay 😀

Prices
Mikela: The owner of a popular clothing store comes up with his own method of pricing items. A vest costs $8. Socks cost $10. A tie costs $6. And a blouse costs $12. Using the owner's method, how much would a pair of underwear cost? It's too easy!!! I agree. Next! I want to file a complaint against Mikela. She should screen the puzzles before posting them. Okay! I'll start skipping! Here is the answer to this puzzle... Mikela: It's $18! Each letter costs $2!
Password
Mikela: A woman wants to enter an exclusive club, but she doesn't know the password. A man walks to the door and the doorman says 12, the man says 6, and is let in. Another man walks up and the doorman says 6, the man says 3, and is let in. Thinking she's figured it out, she walks up to the door and the doorman says 10, she says 5, and she isn't let in. What should she have said? Still too easy... This might be okay if not for the first puzzle. The next one better be better. You're on fire! Mikela: It's 3! The reply needs to be the number of letters of the word the doorman spoke!
Reading
Mikela: Jessica is telling her friends this story and asks them to guess if it's the truth or a lie: “There was a man sitting in a house at night that had no lights on at all. There was no lamp, no candle, and no other source of light. Yet, he sat in the house and read his book happily.” Her friends say she's lying, but Jessica corrects them and says she's telling the truth. Jessica's story is true—but how? Mikela Mikela Mikela... Casey receives What was that for?! I think Arcacia liked Casey for being nice. Compared to... last time. May I answer this one? Yes, please. P4: Did he read it with his hands?
Sasha: Who agrees with P4's answer? Sasha: Zoey: Evelyn: Casey:
Sasha: Tanya, Yes or No?
Tanya: I don't like to take meaningless risk.
Sasha: There is no risk! Just pick so if we fail, we ALL fail together!
Tanya: I'm sorry. I'm not interested in failing together.
Casey: Well, if we get it right, then we ALL win together.
Tanya: Okay. I agree with P4's answer.
Mikela: Okay!! Are you ready? We are ALL IN!
Mikela: And the answer is... 🥁🥁🥁 The man is blind and is reading braille! Congratulations!! Everybody wins!! That's all, folks! Thanks for playing! See you next time! Today's puzzles are from ! Cheers!

202112142223|Farewell Messages
December 14, 2021 Tuesday 10:23 PM
Magic Detectives

Writing farewell message has always been one of my weaker skills. How do you do it? This is a post from @Happy: Lv1

OMG, Evelyn! Don't make titles like this! I thought you were leaving! I'm sorry! I'm not! I'm just trying to ask because someone else is leaving! 😖
Tanya: Is it difficult because you know them well or because you don't? Tanya receives This time it is because I don't. I feel like I failed to know them better. 😔 If you had known them better, what would you have written? Then I could wish them luck on what they plan to do. Right now I don't know their plans. 😔 I see. I propose a generic "Wish you all the best!" Let's see if someone else can come up with a better message. Thank you. 🙂
Casey: How about an inspiring quote? Such as: "All the little things will add to a happy journey." I like that! 😀 Casey receives
Zoey: Is there something you could thank them? We haven't worked together for years. I can't think of something to thank them. If I mention something from years ago, I think it just shows how long it had been since we last talked to each other. 😔 But how do you feel when you see them? I feel excited because it was as if we went back in time in another dimension. But that's probably just me. 😊 What if it is not just you? Then I will thank them for being them? And for reminding me the happy moments? That sounds kind of boring though. How about: "Thank you for making time-travel possible." That's funny. That's a little daring but I will try. 😳
Summary
Zoey/Sasha: "Thank you for making time-travel possible."
Casey: "All the little things will add to a happy journey."
Tanya: "Wish you all the best!"
Evelyn: I think together this is a good size for the message. Thank you all! 😊✅ The online form only accepts 80 characters! My planned message was too long... So I will just include the last two. Thanks again! 😊✅ Tanya, Casey, Zoey, Sasha receive Kudos from Evelyn.

📯
Tanya was planning for building the new Albatross when she learned about the situation at Deer Crossing. "This is serious." She thought to herself. "The plan for the Albatross can wait, but this cannot." Although there is no map to Deer Crossing, she reasoned that it is somewhere south of Arcacia's farm. Tanya started heading there, hopefully a map will be created soon.

🗺️ Quest map

Tanya: Could we get a map showing Deer Crossing and Arsenal Castle? I think we will also need local maps to show locations of monster spawn points.
Casey: I've just done the large map. What kind of location is Deer Crossing and Arsenal Castle? I'll let the others decide. LRRH: Just a friendly suggestion. This type of non-RP conversation about the game could be part of the RP thread. You could just hide it as an aside. I think it would be interesting to read those notes while reading the main RP. StarTree, Could you copy that so we can see and decide whether to keep doing so? StarTree: I'll add this 💬 icon. If you click on it, it shows you the aside comments! Wow, this is REALLY Interesting! Red deserves merit!
LRRH is awarded Merit by Casey.
🦌 What Deer Crossing is

💡Evelyn: I've got a suggestion about what Deer Crossing is... I want the Deer Crossing to be a safe haven for deer. It means that it is not a hunting zone.
That sounds like the Ageless Forest. That's on the other side of the ocean. Could you move Ageless Forest to our continent? I think Ageless Forest should be closer to us. It was where P4 went for training. Then what about the World Tree? Could you move that too? Is there any reason there needs to be land at the northwest corner? If not I'll just remove that continent. I don't know if that continent is necessary, but I have an idea.
🧭 The Continents

💡Zoey: When people discuss politics, they often refer to a 2D political compass. Why don't we place the cities according to their alignment?
I think doing that would make the world look much less 'organic', and our map should show how cities of different political view can coexist in the same region under Hospitalian principles. You shouldn't need to move very far to find a community that shares your political alignment. Okay. But as of now it almost looks like that with the four corners. The northwest continent is the libertarian left. The northeast corner is authoritarian right. The southwest corner is libertarian right. The southeast corner is authoritarian left. I am okay with the countries being moved, but I still want some leeway to show how Hospitalian principles work, so individual cities should not be located according to their political alignment. So, World Tree on the bottom left. Country of Walls at top left. Country of Possessions at top right, and Pirate Bay at bottom right? Pirate Bay should be between countries that trade. May I also add my two cents?
👑 The Countries

💡Sasha: I want good countries to be one top and evil countries to be at the bottom.
That is somewhat opposite of Zoey's suggestion. But having the good countries at the top is like what we have now. What should I do if your wishes contradict each other? The person who draws decide. It is up to you, Casey. If you want to be Arcacian about, you would give priority to the one with more credits. @StarTree, what is our current ranking order? StarTree: It is:
336 points: Tanya: Wants the map to show Hospitalian Principles where cities of different political views can coexist in different regions.
233 points: Zoey: Wants the main countries to follow the political compass.
224 points: Sasha: Wants the good countries to be on top (north).
207 points: Evelyn: Evelyn: Wants Deer Crossing to be a sanctuary for deer (no hunting).
Hold on... Wouldn't the top scorer make all the calls? How many player levels are Tanya spending to get her priority? Remember, it is not about raw exp. It is about player level. It is not about who is the highest level, it is about who wants to spend the most of their player level (game coins). Currently: Tanya has 19 coins, Zoey has 15, Sasha has 15, Evelyn has 14! Are we really going to bid on the priority on deciding the game map...? I say Yes. Unless the others forfeit, then I get my way. But Queen Vivi is up north right now, do you want Castle Vivi to be at the south pole? What is wrong with it? Queen Vivi is obviously the good team. You guys go down. Are we talking to the normal Sasha or the villain Sasha...? 😅 I think it means there is no conflict. There is no need to bid. I am just going to draw something first. Tell me again if you don't like it. And this time I am going to make a square 8x8 map because that is what I want.
Tanya thanks all for answering the call.

I made the quest board prettier and added tier for cycling the quests! Tier 1 has the top 3 quests. Tier 2 has the next top 7. Tier 3 has the rest. And this area is for people to just say things without making a new post!

Sasha: I like this new shout out section.
Tanya: StarTree, could you list the top 3 quest in each tier to show what's up next? Done!
Vivi: 3 is too many on mobile.
Tanya: On second thought, I want to see the full list of quests so we can audit the tier/priority. That section should be pretty much the same on each day unless we need to shift priority. So it can be normally hidden, but it needs to be there per day.
Mikela: I want Puzzle Time to be weekly. StarTree trades with you starting tomorrow!
Tanya: I've just realized what Cardinal's Quest is about. It is important. That should be the sole Tier 1 quest. We need to do that daily. Please move @Concept and @Whale to Tier 3 starting tomorrow, and shift @Guild to Tier 2. Tanya receives Cardinal receives
StarTree: I am closing today's Daily Quest. 🥨

But I can only see the cat island... But more importantly, what exactly do we need to do for this quest? @Tanya.

🔮 Deer Crossing's Barrier

Tanya: Since Tanya arrived near Deer Crossing, she had heard rumors and sighting from the locals, but there was no concrete report on what was going it. "This was almost like a ghost hunt," she thought herself. But she knew very well that the sightings were not ghosts, but signs of the guardian statues losing its power to maintain its barrier to protect the sanctuary. If the barriers go down, the sanctuary will be no more.
Tanya: But first, they should find someone who knew more about the guardian statues. It just happens that now is a holiday season and none is around.
Ledia: Ledia has arrived. She asked, "What about the monster spawning points? How do we seal them?"
Tanya: The guardian statues are what that would, or have been sealing the spawn points. When they are weakened, the monster will come out and take people's lives, including deer.
Ledia: Is there any monster that is already out, that we can fight?
🔮Tanya: There is a monster at large that is luring the Heroes' attention away from the impending issues giving false hope that things will just be okay. Tanya thinks that some heroes are already struck by it without knowing it. Zoey: Are you talking about Sloth? Tanya: It is a combination of Sloth, Distraction, False Hope, and Pride. Ledia: Ledia would see that as a team of four monsters. Zoey: We should make notes about the monsters somewhere. Where would be good? Cardinal or Catacomb? Let's make a separate post with the label Monster. Let's spec out the monsters.

Hey Hey Hey! It's your puzzle master Mikela! Are you all ready for a puzzle? Just one good one, please. P4, come sit with me! P4 sits on Evelyn's lap. We are ready. 😊 Here we go!

Paying the Bill
Wednesday, Steve and Pam go to a restaurant to eat lunch. After eating lunch, they pay the bill. But Steve and Pam do not pay the bill. So... who does?
Casey: There are way too many possibilities...
P4: I know this one. Is it Wednesday?
Casey: OMG, that is so dumb! I was so dumb!
Evelyn: Could we not use that word...?
Sasha: I can't. I can't be satisfied with just one puzzle. Especially not like this...
Mikela: AND... P4 is Right! Congratulations!!
Sasha: I... need... more...
Zoey: Don't give in, Sasha. It won't get better.
Sasha: Just one more please...

Mikela: And here we go...
Pick Your Own Poison
An evil man kidnapped someone and made them take one of two pills. One was harmless, but the other was poisonous. Whichever pill the victim took, the kidnapper took the other one. The victim took their pill with water and died. The kidnapper survived. How did the kidnapper get the harmless pill?
P4: The kidnapper is immune to the poison.
Sasha: The pill mixed with water becomes lethal, otherwise the poison isn't enough to kill a person.
Casey: The kidnapper has antidote.
Evelyn: ... I don't really want to think about this kind of puzzle... 🏳️
Zoey: I think the wording of the puzzle is wrong. It didn't just say the kidnapper end up surviving even if he took the poison pill. It said the kidnapper end up taking the harmless one regardless which one the victim took. That is impossible.
Sasha: @Tanya, make us whole!
Tanya: I don't see what the puzzle is. It just said the victim took the poisonous pill, so the kidnapper is left with and took the harmless pill.

Mikela: Alright! And the answer is...
Evelyn: Hold on. I don't want to be the only one not answering. So... The pills were labeled. The victim intentionally took the poisonous pill because she didn't want the evil man to die even if he was evil.
Evelyn receives Sasha: I can't tell whether that was dark or moving. Evelyn deserves a roleplay award.
Evelyn receives Mikela: OKAY! Six different answers! And the answer to the puzzle is... 🥁🥁🥁

🎊

Mikela: Both pills were harmless -- the poison was in the water! Sasha wins! Congratulations!
Sasha: Yes! I won and beat Tanya!
Zoey: But I was also right, the puzzle was worded WRONG. It said one of the pill was poisonous. The puzzle contradicted itself! It is a bad puzzle.
Sasha: That's part of the game! You have to factor in how people don't always write the puzzles correctly!
Zoey: But you also assumed one of them was in fact poisonous, just not enough to be lethal.
Sasha: I still got the closest answer and a better answer because my answer didn't contradict with the puzzle.
Zoey: True.

Mikela: And that's all, folks! See you next time!

Evelyn: I'm sorry! They are both my turn!

Tanya: Can you link to a specific section in the document from outside the frame?
Ivy: I haven't tested this but I would think so.
Tanya: But the link itself needs to have a target tag. It means I can't get a link to post on another website, correct?

So. Could we play murder mystery here?

LRRH: The short answer is no, because it doesn't meet Magic Bakery Guideline.
Sasha: And where is the guideline?
LRRH: I never wrote it down.
Sasha: Cardinal, ARP. LRRH takes 1 psychic damage. LRRH is now KO'ed.
LRRH: Ivy, how do I define Auto-Revive?
Ivy: You could define it with on the Revive post.
LRRH: Do we really need a separate post for each skill?
Ivy: My plan is to minimize manual linking. If you tag a post a Skill, then the label feature can list all the skills.
LRRH: Can a post have two archetype tags? Auto-Revive is an Alchemist skill.
Ivy: A skill post can have multiple archetype labels. Okay. LRRH has defined Auto-Revive.
LRRH: Where should I put guild rules?

Setting up

202112281000|Haunted House
December 28, 2021 Tuesday 10:00 AM
Magic Bakery

Hey Hey Hey! It's your Puzzle Master Mikela! Are you all ready for Puzzle Tuesday? I'm ready! Here it comes:

The Haunted House
Jack and Jill were visiting a very scary haunted house on Halloween. There was no light source in the house other than the flashlights they were holding. Jack was walking behind Jill, then he was just gone. Jill looked around but couldn't see him. She called him but there was not response. What happened?
Isn't this...? Yes it is. Then do you know the answer? Not yet. What if it turns out dark? Then I'll pick the best answer as the winner! Mikela receives merit from LRRH. Evelyn: Maybe Jack fainted? Wouldn't you hear something when someone falls? And what about the flashlight he was holding? Maybe he fell on something soft and his body covered the light? Maybe he fainted because his flashlight went out of battery. I don't think it is loud when someone faints and collapses. Jill might simply not notice when Jack fainted and walked some more before she realized. Casey: I say Jack just hid himself intentionally. Maybe he was trying to scare Jill, or he was too scared and went back by himself. Wouldn't he tell Jill if he was just going back? Maybe he did, but Jill didn't hear it or listen, or he might be too ashamed to admit it so he didn't say anything.
Mikela: Okay, so far we have two types of answers: Accident, or Intentional. Do you have more answers? LRRH: There is another kind of intentional action, but not by Jack. Such as when someone else intentionally turned him into a pudding. What do you want to call this third type? Hostility? Sasha: That's kid-friendly but it doesn't make any sense. If it is a haunted house, it could be something like the house has painting and it sucked Jack into one of them. I like that theme better. Sasha receives kudos from Evelyn. Why didn't the painting suck Jill? She was in front. If the painting sucked Jill first, Jack could see it happen. By sucking Jack first, Jill may still don't know what happened and could be sucked also. Then the paintings are sentient? The word hostile implies someone intentionally does something harmful. Otherwise it would just be dangerous or hazardous. There is something playing as the villain. P4: What if he smelled something really good? He was hungry and so he wandered off. Cute ! 😊 P4 receives kudos from Evelyn. Casey: How about the picture that sucked Jack happened to show something he was attracted to? You need to be drawn to the picture to be sucked in. And that was why Jill and Jack both walked past that painting, but only Jack was sucked in it. There is no villain, but the house is hazardous. If nothing bad is actually happening to Jack, then what would you call it? He saw a better place and went there. It doesn't mean that the House was doing anything bad. Mesmerized. Charmed. That's what kids' games would call it.
Mikela: Okay, so now e have five types of answers: Accident, Charmed, Hazard, Hostility, Voluntary. Are there more? Zoey: What about a misunderstanding or a mistake? Maybe Jack saw the Exit and went there, or Jill missed the Exit and kept going. Then Jill would think that Jack should still be behind her, but it was normal that Jack would not be. Casey: Jill went inside a women's restroom inside the haunted house, Jack saw that so he was waiting outside! That's funny! Casey is awarded Merit from Sasha. Tanya: What if we were misled by the puzzle? The puzzle presented what it said as the truth, but it could be wrong like the last time. Maybe the account by Jill was false. Jack didn't disappear suddenly. That's just Jill's testimony. The puzzler left out important information. I would call this false witness. Like... Jack and Jill had an argument and one of them intentionally walked off. Then when Jill was asked what happened, Jill didn't want to talk about the argument so she just says, 'Jack just disappeared suddenly'. That's one possibility. I want Tanya to play Murder Mystery. She would help us solve cases, it would be fun and possibly educational. Why are we suddently talking about murder mystery? 😅 LRRH: Sasha, you are making Evelyn uncomfortable. If you keep pushing I would considered your being hostile to another guild member and turn you into a pudding. Then eat you. I want to know what is going on and I don't want to be separated. I want to play murder mystery with everyone but Red won't let us play here. I think the first question is, does Evelyn even want to play that. If not, then you shouldn't keep asking because you already know she wants to be with you but you are using that to make her do something uncomfortable. But if you say it like that, you are also pressuring her to do more because she now knows that there are things we want to do but would never bring it up for fear that it would make her uncomfortable, then we would become more and more like strangers to each other, and we will become separated because we won't know how to talk to each other anymore. Then she would regret having been so opposed to everything and blame herself for breaking our group. I see. I am against those games because they associate evil intentions and behaviors to pleasures. Even if you are playing the protagonist trying to solve the crime, you are still propagating evil thought patterns by describing them. When you do that you create a world of evil and suffering. I object your thought pattern for several reasons. 1) People who help solve crimes should not be stigmatized. They need to be supported. You are isolating them from support when you don't let them talk about what they do, or don't let them turn what they have to do into something fun. When you do that, you are forcing them into a corner to be traumatized because you keep telling them that the only way they should feel is to be traumatized when something bad happens. 2) In those crimes someone is hurt. Do you go save them or do you seal them away? 3) If you don't let people play, how do you train people to solve the crimes? For point #2, I think people may choose to coop with an incident by sealing it away. We can help them start over by not bring them back to the past. We can also help those who want to find answer in the past find answer. That is the victim's choice. You can't decide for a victim whether they shall face the past and make it normal to talk about it. And we don't need to go out of our way to save imaginary victims because Arcacia can do that and give them a new life. There is no place of unwanted eternal suffering. Evelyn receives For point #1 and #3, I don't think I am trying to stigmatize anything. There are places where people can talk about things and get training on how to do things. But this place is a bakery. Red has been generous for letting us do things unrelated to baking. Then if I go play that would you come? Am I forcing you or making you uncomfortable? And where would we go to play it? I don't get the big deal about those games. What is so more interesting about them than regular puzzles. I don't get why people would play those but not when the crime is about "just a bank robbery". I think horror and violence are part of the attraction. It is the same as how a person would go watch a horror movie compared to an action movie. It is kind of like dare, like eating spicy food. People challenge each other to see who can stomach more. Sasha, why do you want to play these games? Because the puzzle is more complicated, more realistic and there is a storyline. But is it violent? That's the thing, I don't know how or whether I am allowed to talk about it. When we played Vivi's game, we can get KO'ed. Zoey KO'ed me in one hit. In the KO mystery people also got KO'ed in one hit in a locked haunted house and you are trying to figure out who did it. I am not trying to dare anyone to be violent. I am seeing it as a puzzle that we can solve together. I don't care if we make things cuter as long as the puzzle is the same. How would you know what is important to the puzzle if you start translating it to a less-violent equivalent? I don't know how until we finish playing it! But by then we won't be playing it. So we would just have to translate it as we play and hope that we didn't miss anything that is vital to the puzzle. In the end it should be a small fix if we missed anything. But in that case, what is our purpose of translating it? We are still playing the real thing. We are doing it so other people can play the non-violent version, the family friend version that is about motives and figuring our false witnesses, instead of simply decoding ciphers like in Escape Room puzzles. I see. What would you call the translated type of game, after removing the violence? Magic Bakery Detectives. ... Is that a silent approval? Should I write a charter? We translate violent murder mystery puzzles into non-violent family-friendly puzzles. We will have a translation team, and another section with the translated puzzles for others to play. Our goal is to promote logical thinking so people don't get deceived and get taken advantage of. This is peacemaking not by censoring but by providing a more popular and enjoyable alternative. It is Arcacian. Mom isn't responding. I can't tell whether what you do is okay until I see it. @Ivy, how can they do it as a trial? They can do it on a page and don't link to it. Then it becomes unsearchable. Then you may do it there but I am not giving you a charter number or credits for doing so until I see what you can actually do. I guess that is fair. Who wants to join my translation team? I want to join but could we do the other quests first?
Mikela: Okay! And the kids went questing. Stay tuned next time for the answer!

Defending Deer Crossing
Command Center, Western Statue
DX Command Center
Deer Crossing Command Center

Wednesday December 29, 2021


To recharge the Guardian Statues, Tanya believed that the first step was to setup a command center so that heroes who would arrive later would know the status. As of now, the pertinent information is as follows:
Deer Crossing Status Summary
December 29, 2021

1. The Deer Crossing Sanctuary is protected by three guardian statues. The sister statues form a reuleaux triangle covering the entirety of Deer Crossing.

2. The power of the statues are running out. In their weakened states, monster would start spawning to attack the sanctuary and area nearby.

3. The quest goal is to recharge the statues and to protect the area from monster attacks in the meantime.

4. Sages may have useful information if they can be located. If they cannot be found, the statues need to be studied to recharge the seals.

5. Rumor has it that there are more than a dozen interrelated magic seals on each statue to be recharged.

6. The exact date when the statue power would run out is unknown. Rumor has it that it will run out before Spring.
~ End of Summary ~
...


Zoey was unsatisfied with point 5 and 6 in Tanya's status report. "Knowing how many seals we need to restore and when its power will run out are important. If we know the truth too late, we won't be able to adjust our efforts in time. We need facts, not rumors. I am going to track down the facts and destroy the rumors. Who would join me?" Zoey didn't intend to explore alone. She wanted at least one other Hero to join her party.

Zoey added Rumor as a monster.
Tanya: Tanya intended to stay and set up base camp. "Monster activity is low at the moment," Tanya said to Zoey, "Are you sure you don't want to go solo?"

Zoey: Unlike Tanya, Zoey normally don't do things alone unless she was in a safe zone. According to the reports, Deer Crossing is no longer a safe zone. It seems unreasonable to venture alone in such unfamiliar environment. "I only have 1 hit point." Zoey reminded Tanya.

Zoey added Pride as a monster.
Tanya: Noted.

Zoey: Zoey thought Ledia or Evelyn would response but they didn't. There was one person she knew would response, although it would seem overkill in this situation. But since no one else was coming, Zoey summoned that person...

🧭 Western Statue
To the Western Statue

Wednesday December 29, 2021


Zoey wanted to dispel the rumors and get the facts straight within today. She reasoned that although Deer Crossing was not inside Ageless Forest, the most capable person for the task would be Fina.

Zoey summons Fina. Zoey is recognized as a Herald.



Fina: Good job avoid saying that I'm your last choice. Let's get something done.
Fina: Fina led Zoey through the forest. She tried to do it swiftly but quickly realized that it was more like a babysitting deal than a scouting deal.
Zoey: Although both Fina and Zoey are Heralds, Zoey was more comfortable as dispatch behind a desk looking up information than as a ranger following tracks.
Fina: We aren't even following any tracks. We are just going from point A to point B.
Zoey: Through a jungle, with no roads, no stairs... *pant*
Fina: Save your breath...

The party reached a hilltop where one of the statues were located. Teleport to the Western Deer Crossing Guardian Statue is now connected. Zoey receives Kudo from Tanya: "Thank you for taking one for the team."
Sasha has teleported to the Western Statue.


Sasha: Pixie.

Zoey is hungry and exhausted. Zoey is now KO'ed.
Zoey: What was that for?
Sasha: That's for you to go take a break, and for me to take my turn.
Zoey: Fina, Sasha is the enemy!
Sasha: Not right now. Queen Vivi wasn't the one attacking. This is something new. I'm just trying to understand what's going on. Same as you.
Fina: Hmm. In that case, you won't mind if I just start cooking would you? Meanwhile you could examine the Statue, then we can eat together.
Sasha: I guess that's fair.
🔍 Investigation
Investigation

Wednesday December 29, 2021


With her unrivaled magical aptitude, Sasha deciphered that the Statues, together, would run out of power on Spring Equinox, which would be Sunday March 20, 2022. As for the number of magical seals to recharge, she counted 18.



Ledia: "What do we need to do to recharge them?" Ledia had followed the tracks and reached the summit of the Western Statue.

Sasha: It says that the statues are supposed to recharge itself, but apparently the landscape or terrain has changed, preventing it from doing so. We would need to alter the magical leylines for them to recharge from the current terrain. The 18 seals correspond to locations where the leyline had already changed. We need to fine alternate sources to reconnect them. For example:


Sasha: This magic seal was originally at the bottom of the lake. But the lake had gotten deeper. The original seal is now too far from where it needs to be to seal the monster spawn point. I can make you a scroll but you still need to dive down there for the scroll to activate because I can't tell the exact locations from here. Translocation Scroll 📜


Zoey: Zoey was surprised that Sasha was actually being helpful and felt bad about calling her an enemy earlier.
Sasha: A likeable villain is not bad all the time. Sasha receives Kudos from Zoey Sasha is now recognized as a Magician. Sasha: Pixie. Zoey has returned to normal condition. Zoey now has 1 hitpoint. Fina is now recognized as an Alchemist. Fina receives Kudos from Zoey: "Thank you for the meal."
Ledia: I will go to the lake, find the old seal and apply this scroll. If you would, could you list the rest of the sub quests at the command center?
Sasha: Actually, I was thinking, since we need to check the status of the statues all the time, why don't we set the command center here at the statue?
Ledia: I will let you sort that out with Tanya. Either way is fine with me as long as there is a list.
Ledia is now recognized as a Paladin.
🔮 Lake Monster
Base Camp

Wednesday December 29, 2021


Before diving into the lake, Ledia teleported back to base camp to consult with Tanya.

Ledia: Tanya, with our current information and preparation, what are my odds of succeeding if I go to the lake right now?



Tanya: I've found historical records of this mission type being done with this kind of scroll. But since the location happens to be underwater, it would be difficult even if you succeed. I expect you to lose 1 hit point just for diving. There is a small chance (1/6) that you will need to fight monsters that had already spawned. If you encounter them, you would lose another hit point just for fighting. Your odds of winning if you fight is less than half (2/6). Otherwise, your chance of finding the spawn point and being able to apply the new seal is one half (3/6) per dive. In summary:
For each diving attempt:

1. Roll for monster encounter (1/6)
2. If there is a monster encounter, roll for combat success (2/6)
3. If combat fails, lose 1 hit point and resurface (Skip to Step 5)
4. Roll for success in finding and applying the scroll (3/6)
5. Resurface: Lose 1 hit point.

Ledia: It seems to worth a try. Tanya is now recognized as an Oracle.

Defending Deer Crossing
Sealing the Crystal Lake Spawn Point.
⚔️ Crystal Lake First Dive
Crystal Lake

Thursday December 30, 2021




Ledia and Evelyn rowed a boat to the middle of the misty lake. Although it was winter, the weather was not too cold at Crystal Lake. According to Sasha's scroll, there were geysers at the bottom of the lake. There might even be hot springs near the lake.
...
Evelyn: May the spirits of light protect you.
The party gains Protect and Light Evelyn is now recognized as a Level 3 Light Magic User. Evelyn: Be careful.
Evelyn receives Ledia: Ledia makes the first dive.
First Dive at Crystal Lake



🎲


Ledia dived into the lake with Evelyn's light illuminating the surrounding. Hopefully it makes it easier to spot the old seal at the bottom of the lake.

Cardinal: The water was quite clear. The light spell definitely helped. However, the unusual light source drew curiosity from the lake creatures including monsters. The chance of encountering monsters has doubled.
🎲🎲
A monster has appeared to attack Ledia.
⚔️

Ledia: Ledia observes the monster's type.
Cardinal: The monster was flat like a devil fish, but uses electrical attack with its whipping tail.
Ledia: Ledia has resistance to electrical damage because she herself is also an electrical attack user.
Ledia is now recognized as a Level 4 Lightning Magic User.
Cardinal: The monster has no physical attack other than its electrical attack, which is dampened by Ledia's magic resistance. However, the encounter is preventing Ledia from searching for the magic seal. The monster is not moving particularly fast as it has no natural predator in the area and its electrical whip attack would normally work against its preys.
Ledia: Ledia tries to hit the monster. If she could land a physical hit, she would cast freeze on contact, otherwise she would try to freeze the monster at range.
Ledia is now recognized as a Level 4 Ice Magic User.
Cardinal: Although the monster was not moving particularly fast, Ledia was moving even slower. Ledia tried to freeze the monster at range but ice magic was at disadvantage because the water was a bit warm...
🎲🎲
⚔️ The freezing attack was too slow to have an effect on the monster.

Cardinal: The monster started to flee, it seems that it has lost interest in Ledia as its attacks did not work. Ledia is running out of breath and must resurface or risk drowning.
Ledia: Ledia resurfaces.
Diving and fighting under water was strenuous.
Ledia now has 1 hit point remaining.
⚔️ Round 2
Round 2

Thursday December 30, 2021


The attempt to find the magic seal at Crystal Lake didn't go well. Although she could retry every day, it seemed like a waste of effort because she knew of someone better suited for the task.
...
Natalie arrived at Crystal Lake and was briefed about the situation.


Natalie: A Taser Ray! It sounds like fun! Let's do it!
Natalie is now recognized as a Paladin.
...
Crystal Lake Round 2



Natalie: My plan is to use water bending swim really fast underwater. I will avoid fighting and prioritize locating the seal. I think that once the seal is located, we have someone else who can apply the scroll for sure, even if I don't do it myself.
Natalie is recognized as a Level 4 Water Magic User.


Evelyn: Do you want protect and light? Light was attracting monsters last time. 😖
Natalie: I think I can swim faster than the monster so I should be fine. So, Yes please.
The party gains Protect and Light. Natalie: Natalie prays to the spirits for guidance. "O Spirits of the Lake, we thank you for lives and joy that you gave us. Please help us find the seal and protect the lives here."
Natalie receives Natalie is recognized as a Level 1 Divine Magic User Natalie gains advantage in locating the seal. Natalie: Okay. Here I go. Natalie flies above the lake to see if there is any sign of the seal.


Cardinal: From the sky, Natalie sees two things unusual. There is a spot with dark shadows, which seemed like a small school of Taser ray monsters. About 100 meters from there was a spot with faint radiant lights the looked like broken rainbows.


Natalie: Natalie relays that information back to base camp.
Tanya: Please go down near the broken seal and use the first part of the scroll to gather the old seal. Then go to the new spawn point to use the second part of the scroll to relocate the seal. You don't need to gather anything physical that had the old seal. As long as the scroll can recognize the old seal, it can recreate it at the new location.
Natalie: I fly to the top of the broken rainbows and dive down, using just enough water bending to create a slim pressure bubble so that I fall to the bottom of the lake.
🎲🎲
Cardinal Natalie fell to the bottom of the lake which was about 100 meters deep. Natalie was surrounded by broken rainbow lights that spread for about 10 meters all around her. There, she could also see shadows of three Taser ray monsters circling, uncertain what to do with this intruder. There might be enough time to use the first part of the scroll before they decide to attack.
Natalie: Natalie uses the first part of the scroll. She is ready to abort and resurface if the monsters attack.
🎲
⚔️ As soon as Natalie started using the scroll, the monsters attacked.
🎲🎲
Natalie dodged the electric tail whips and resurfaced.
Natalie still has 3 hit points but is now out of mana.
...
Natalie: Ah well. Natalie calls their secret weapon.


Sasha: Why didn't you just let them hit you? You have protect.
Tanya: Protect doesn't cancel the effect of paralysis from electric shock.
Evelyn: I didn't help at all. 😖
Natalie: We didn't know what else was in the lake.
Sasha: We still don't know.
👑 Round 3
Round 3

Thursday December 30, 2021


The secret weapon Natalie mentioned was V. V was immune to electric shock and attacks that do less than 3 damage. Natalie's plan was to just let her go down and use the scroll.

Sasha: How is she going to breathe underwater?
V: I don't.
Sasha: O. K.
...
Crystal Lake Round 3





V: V walks to Evelyn.
Evelyn: Yes?
V: Light, please.
Evelyn: Yes! Sorry! 😖
The party gains Protect and Light. V: V flies to where Natalie was and dived.


Cardinal: V sinks slowly and quietly down the lake like a falling star. The monsters are attracted to the light.
🎲🎲
⚔️ Three Taser ray monsters approached to attack V.

V: V counters with sword skill Ice Carousel. V receives V is recognized as a Sword Master and a Level 3 Ice Magic User.
🎲🎲🎲🎲
👑 V has KO'ed all three monsters.
Casey: That sounds so cool!
Cardinal: V, how do you want to do this?
V: There was no witness to what V did. V kept sinking. She intended to use the first part of the scroll, then swim to where the new spawn point might be. Hopefully catch exactly where they spawn.
Cardinal: Without any difficulty, V applied the first part of the scroll. The scroll collected the broken rainbow fragments and reassembled the seal to the applied to the new location. V then swam to the next location. There was no obvious sign of where the spawn points were. V waited.
V: V sucks on her popsicle while waiting.
🎲🎲🎲🎲🎲
Cardinal: V waited for 25 minutes at the bottom of the lake before the three monsters respawned together. V could easily see the spawn point, and the Monsters could clearly see V. The monsters were attracted to the light just the same as before.
⚔️ Three Taser ray monsters approached to attack V.
V: Ice Carousel.
🎲🎲🎲🎲 👑 V has KO'ed all three monsters again.

Sasha: That is just too OP for a Level 9. Ledia is level 13 and couldn't defeat one. V KO'ed 6 in one breath.
V: V applies the second part of the scroll to the spawn point.

The Crystal Lake spawn point has been sealed. V: V resurfaces and flies back to shore.

Sasha: And she can fly!!
Ledia: I feel that I used wrong tactics. V's fighting style is efficient.
Sasha: Sasha questions the rule that physical attributes are free to import.
Evelyn: Thank you for coming, V.
V: ✌️

Tanya receives


Zoey: Zoey checks in at base camp to see how she may help.
Tanya: Could you check Seal 19 Sundial. There was a report that the seal was already fixed. It is not surprising if that had happened because that area is travelled by merchants. Could you confirm that it is sealed? You should be able to find it along the path.
Zoey: It would be awesome if we have a bigger map.
Tanya: I think that can wait.

Zoey: Zoey followed the path to north shore to look for the sundial. She is going alone because according to Tanya the path should be quite safe.


Cardinal: Zoey followed the path and crossed Timber Bridge to North Shore. Where the old records described to have a sundial is now the construction site of a clock tower, as the small fishing port has been growing into a full-fledged town.
Zoey: Hmm... Timber Bridge. That sounds familiar. But first thing first. I am here for the sundial. I look for a town hall to ask about recent monster sightings.
Cardinal: Zoey finds a town hall and there is a young town hall clerk.
Zoey: Zoey asks the clerk for reports of monster sightings.
Cardinal: The clerk gave Zoey a case file that about a year ago, there was a mysterious incident where the sundial in the vicinity would become out of sync. Around that time, monsters started appearing and many people got sick. The issue was solved when the people started using clocks instead. There had been no sighting of monsters nearby since then.
Zoey: Considering the situation, Zoey believes that the town's record is truthful, and if not, there should be new reports of monster sighting. Zoey considers this check confirmed. She will look for a town crystal and return to base camp. The safe status at North Shore has been confirmed. Teleport to North Shore is now connected. Zoey receives Kudos from Tanya.

About

20230423: This is an archived post for Ch16 Dungeon. The original date of this post was unknown. The date 20211230 1304 was based on the timestamp of blogger.

WELCOME TO THE ARCADE


Arx Catacomb is a training dungeon for peacemakers to hone their skills against evil. Using alter-reality magic, trainers can spawn replicas of monsters recorded from all realms. Tanya: With total control of the monsters, the trainer may adjust their speed and actions, as well as pausing and replaying the simulation for discussions and studies. No real monster or creature is present or hurt during training exercises. Tanya: The training exercises exist for the benefit of peacemakers. There is no deadline or urgency in defeating the monsters. (2021-12-10: Securing the site) Ledia: We Paladins call this place the Arcade. I used to work there. It was fun.
THE DUNGEON
Game flow (Sasha: Group with Albatross Quest)
The Dungeon, which is Arx Catacomb proper, is where we get the materials to revive and supply the new Albatross. Periodically, Tanya will open a room let in a creature. The peacemakers will then need to decide whether that creature is a friend or a foe, and KO it if it is a foe. During or after KO'ing the foe, the peacemakers will try to identify the foe and conclude the best weapon against them for future references.

Dungeon Todo List:
⬜ STEP 1: Open a room and invite peacemakers to respond.
⬜ STEP 2: Peacemaker responses: For conciseness, each peacemaker should choose and give their best shot.
⬜ STEP 3: If the room is cleared, craft ammo for Albatross.

Supportive Todo List:
⬜ Conceptual: Create a list of identified and spec'ed monsters
⬜ Rulebook: Conceptual: Define terms for the Rulebook
⬜ Rulebook: Artistic: Graphic and layout design for the Rulebook
⬜ Promotion: Artistic: Design dungeon banner
⬜ Promotion: Artistic: Design dungeon map
⬜ Promotion: Artistic: Design monsters
⬜ Music: Record the fighting BGM
ALBATROSS
Reconstructing the peacemaker vessel (Sasha: Repost as Albatross Quest)
The Albatross was a peacemaker vessel that we are trying revive. When revived, it will be capable of wrapping supplies and reinforcement to the frontline to provide rapid response against monsters.
The following is the action plan.
ACTION PLAN
2021-12-30

STAGE I:
o Define the format at the Construction Site so supplies can be sent
o Create the definition section.

STAGE II
o Restart the routine to survey alien monster types, devise effective countermeasures.
o Complete undefined section at the definition section.
o Survey Game Theory Upgrades
o Survey Logical Fallacies and Bias

STAGE III
o Complete importing from old designs.
.. Old prototype (65 pages total)
.. Arcacian Principles 14 pages to merge
.. Unused Module Text 1 page to merge
.. Import concepts from Google Sheet Todo List. Current backlog: 90+ Items.

STAGE IV
o Eventually resolve the difference in style with the colored section. This is postponed if the page has a navigation link (not an orphan) (17 pages)
o Resolve Manga section (2 pages)
*Dropship: The Dropship was our rapid response unit to dispatch paladins to fight actual monsters outside the training area, and in other realms. It is built to equip the pinnacle of technology and material recovered from the catacomb. It responses to events in real time in uncontrolled environment.

🗓️ Calendar Not Functional




Vivi: The "calendar" here is not really functional. Once the day has passed, you can't tell what had happened unless you click on that date. In the old calendar you could at least see an avatar picture.
StarTree: StarTree doesn't understand what she needs to do!


Ivy: In the spirit of reducing manual links, why don't we use "2021-DEC" label to mark quest of the month? Then Blogger will list them.
Vivi: I think it is annoying to have to go to a different page to see a list to make this page, the Dashboard, useful.
Ivy: It is useful because it has the link that will list you the quest of the month, which is December 2021.
Vivi: But as a USER, why would I care about clicking on your quest of the month? I am not here to do archaeology or how ever you spell that. I am here to be entertained. You need to advertise what is interesting and draw my attention.


Sasha: Queen Vivi is back! And she is right! Bow and serve our Queen!
Ivy: What is it like when you come to the website? What do you want to see instead?
Vivi: For starter, when I come to the website I click on the biggest thing. And for me to do that I am already being really generous because your store front picture is just not really exciting. But for now I just want to talk about the Calendar because it is the end of the month and I want to see changes by tomorrow.
Vivi: When on 2021 December, I want to automatically the top banner being the advertisement for the top quest/event of the month. I don't want to see the cheeseboard. Following that I want to see a calendar grid. The grid shouldn't take more than half of the screen on mobile. When I click on a date, I want to see the date cheeseboard you have now but with Status, Scoreboard, and Chatroom collapsed. For the Quest Banner there, I don't want to see a whole list of avatar pictures of the participants. Two is the max that you could fit on mobile. Please hide the Chatroom if no one end up saying anything. If I click on another date on the calendar, show another cheeseboard so I can compare them two. Let's start with that and finish it today.

Deer Crossing
🦌 James's Brown
James Checks In

Friday December 31, 2021


Feeling neglected at Freedom Plaza when no heroes answered his call for help, James decided to take matters in his own hands, to show the world what the story is about--him. So he followed the news about Deer Crossing and arrived at the base camp to see how he could save the world.




Tanya: Could you check the Northwestern waterfall and the cavern? According to reports it should already be sealed.
James: How do you decide where I shall go?
Tanya: I'm choosing the ones that seem the easiest. I am trying to check off as many and as quickly as possible so we can concentrate on the harder ones.
James: While that answer didn't make James feel ultra important, he decided that this could be a good opportunity to shine in quantity. He plans to distinguish himself for checking the most spawn points... James knows that before going to the waterfall, he needs to know what exactly he must check to tell if a spawn point is sealed. So far the closest way to check was to find the town records of last monster sightings. So his first stop would still be North Shore.
North Shore Town Hall





James: James arrives at the North Shore Town Hall to look for monster reports about the waterfall.
Cardinal: The young clerk retrieved a few reports. An incident report, a design of a trap, and scroll of a magic seal.
James: James reads the reports and writes a summary for the Status board.
Cardinal: James learns that what the reports were describing was about a prediction that the a spawn point will become exposed due to natural erosion by the waterfall. The trap and magic seals were copies used by another town for a similar defense. A crystal needs to be placed and enchanted at the cavern behind the waterfall, but the crystal itself has not been completed.
James receives Status at Northeastern Waterfall and Caverns is now confirmed.
Deer Crossing Base Camp





James: James returned to base camp and questioned whether it was premature checkmark the waterfall. "The situation is clearly a still a threat until the new crystal is installed," He said to Tanya, "I propose that the checkmark be reserved only for locations that are completely secured, that is, we would mark them only after Spring Equinox when we know the sanctuary is no longer at risk."
Tanya: Tanya intended to just add another column of checkmarks when they are ready for the next stage of confirming.
James: James proposes using different symbols: A white symbol for a location that needs more information. A yellow symbol for a location that has a task a hero can do beyond just gathering basic information. A blue symbol for a location where the heroes are waiting for a condition before they could progress. And the green checkmark when everything is done.
Tanya: Tanya updates the status board according to James's suggestion for James to see.
James: Hmm... Blue doesn't look quite nice on the Status Board. Let's make it Brown. James's Brown. What's next?
Tanya: Could you check Forest Bazaar? Same deal, please bring back a status report.
James: Sure thing.
James completed status report for Forest Bazaar, and more later on. James is now recognized as a Herald and a Magician.


Zoey: Zoey sees what James is doing and updated her status report similarly.
Zoey: Tanya, if we will make a status report for each location, should I just do them one by one in any order?
Tanya: I still prefer you would start with what I think is the easier ones. So please do Imp Tunnels next.
Zoey: Is this one dangerous?
Tanya: If you stick to gathering information from town hall then no. I am not asking you to actually explore the tunnels.
Zoey: Hmm... okay. Zoey teleports to North Shore town hall.
🦌 Imp Tunnels
Imp Tunnels

Friday December 31, 2021
Zoey asked about the Imp Tunnels at North Shore but the town clerk could not find any record about it. The clerk said there were rumors about Imp sightings east of Deer Crossing on the way to Fort Arsenal. So Zoey decided to go there.
Fort Arsenal





Cardinal: Zoey arrived at Fort Arsenal, which was a barracks and weapon factory, now making mining equipment and supply for mines nearby. The landscape nearby was rugged and dusty without trees serving as wind breakers.
Zoey: Zoey submits a side quest to plant trees around Fort Arsenal. "There is no fighting anymore, so they shouldn't need to clear all the trees to avoid ambush. Zoey receives Cardinal: Zoey found what would could be called a quest center and submitted a side quest. The old clerk said he didn't think the town's folk would want the trees, since they must be vigilant against attacks. The old clerk guessed from Zoey's outfit that she was from Panarcadia. He said, Panarcadia is just a small pocket in the world, beyond Deer Crossing it is a whole other beast.
Zoey: Ooo. A talkie NPC! What does he look like?
Cardinal: The old clerk looks like an old dwarven miner.
Zoey: Finally! A dwarf! Oh, by the way, what do I look like in the game?
Cardinal: It is up to you.
Zoey: May I be an elf, and not be a kid? I don't picture myself as a kid with bow and arrow. I picture myself as an elf. A dark skinned elf. I mean a normal elf, not a dark elf. And not a kid.
Cardinal: You are not saying anything that would contradict the story so far, so as long as you decide that I would set your character to be so and use the information in the narrative. However, once I start using your character setting in the story, if you want to change it you need a valid story element for the change.
Zoey: That should be easy if I just go to Mira Mira. But I don't think I would change thought. I want to be an elf.


Sasha: Well I see a contradiction. Elves are supposed to be agile, but you were panting on your way to the Statue.
Zoey: Can't I just be a sheltered and anime-watching elf. I am still good with bow and arrow just not good at going places, yet. But more importantly, how did you get here?
Sasha: I... followed you?
Zoey: Cardinal, there is no tree around and as a scout I would have spotted Sasha. She lied about following me because she realized that I hadn't connected the teleport at Fort Arsenal yet. I request ARP.
Sasha: Hold on. Why do you want to punish me for joining the game? I am going to make the game more fun! And for my defense, you are calling ARP too soon. I could very well have checked with North Shore town clerk and learned from him that you went to Fort Arsenal. Then I "followed" you by following his lead to Fort Arsenal, where I found you talking to the dwarf clerk. There is no contradiction about what I said.
Zoey: But your said that with a question mark. Your tone meant that you were not certain and you were making it up.
Sasha: Of course I was making it up. That's is RPing! All it matters is whether what I make up still make sense within what our characters would do. And I don't see your character having lie detect skills, so in the story, the surprise from your character didn't come from knowing that I lied, but from your grudge of me having KO'ed you before. You are just looking for an opportunity to take revenge. But I am not here to fight. Having travelled to Fort Arsenal, Sasha meets her rival Zoey. Sasha connects Fort Arsenal to the teleport system and offers to rest and eat with Zoey.
Teleport to Fort Arsenal is now connected. Zoey: Sasha is being nice again! I don't understand!
Sasha: I just don't want you to be the only one connecting all the teleports. That would make me feel like we are using you to do all the walking. So, let's eat?




Sasha: While eating, Sasha and Zoey share information on what they gathered about the Imp Tunnels.
Cardinal: The old clerk had told them that Imps were known to dig tunnels in the area between Deer Crossing and Fort Arsenal, but as they are weak monsters, the miners consider them more as a nuisance than a threat. They do not track or keep records about their sightings.
Zoey: But the clerk did say they are trying to vigilant about a thread. Then what is the threat that they worry about?
Cardinal: It seems that the clerk doesn't bother telling these young adventurers who are literally strangers unknown to this area.
Zoey: He doesn't trust us.
Sasha: I think that's a GM's way of saying we are off-topic. So let's focus on the Imps first. The Imp tunnels may not be affecting Fort Arsenal, but they are affecting Deer Crossing's leylines. According to North Shore, there had been no sighting of Imps along the paths, but the locations of the alleged northern and southern ends of the tunnels will be on the paths. I think it means that the Imps haven't dug far enough to make the exits yet, but that is going to happen. If we know where the exits will be, then we can seal it with this scroll.
📜 Scroll of sealing Imp Tunnel exits. Zoey: How would we know where the tunnels will exit? I think it is too late if we just wait for that to happen. (I know what we can do but my character doesn't.)
Sasha: Sasha knows who can do so but doesn't want to divulge about the fact that Queen Vivi used that method to find the Cardinal Core and had been digging since. So Sasha said, "I think I know someone who can do that, but it would take a bit of time. Give me a few days and I can report to base camp.
Zoey: Having been eating with the new nice Sasha, Zoey did not suspect Sasha of hiding any information from her.
Sasha: Sasha will ask @StarTree to map the Imp Tunnel and create a map. To not be overly confusing, Sasha will just update the Status board now, but in the story, the map is obtained a posted a few days later.


StarTree: StarTree will have no problem mapping the Imp Tunnels, but only as far as halfway between Deer Crossing and Fort Arsenal! Beyond that there weren't enough trees for her to do so!
📜 Partial mapping of Imp Tunnels. Status report for Imp Tunnel is complete.

I made a character card for the Deer Crossing campaign.

Ivy: I started with the one for Evelyn then did the one for Ledia. Please feel free to tweak it (or change it altogether, especially if it is yours). There were no rules about what needs to be on that character card. I just put the information that was already there with a new format, where only skills that cost a player level have a number, so that you could add them and check whether you've maxed out. Please keep upgrading them.
Zoey: It looks really nice! I will make one too. I think everyone who has roleplayed in that game should make a card. But no pressure.
Ledia: I maxed out...
Zoey: By the way, I want green for my title although I know the designated color for Herald is teal. The text already says what our main archetype is, I don't think the color really needs to match that. Zoey: Ok. I "bought" some skills to make up for the gap between my skills and my actual skills. Now I am a proper ranger with hiking, camping, and tracking skills, in the game.

Deer Crossing

📯
Back at Panarcadia, Little Red Riding Hood went to the Governor's Manor about the Statue of Legacy quest. There was a handwritten question on the flyer about the quest that was posted at Magic Bakery Headquarters. The question was "Where to put a book of passwords?"

🚪 Governor's Manor

🕰️ [19:33] 🕰️
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood knocks on the Governor's door.
There was no answer. But there was a sign that said James the Governor had gone to assist Deer Crossing. For any inquires please find his daughter Ivy at the Adventurers' Hall. Red goes look for Ivy at the Adventurers' Hall. Ivy was not there. There was a sign that said Ivy had gone to help Deer Crossing. If there is anything urgent, please go to Deer Crossing base camp. Red thinks why is everyone being so difficult to reach?
🏕️ Base Camp

🕰️ [19:54] 🕰️
Tanya: I see that you are looking for James. But James and Ivy are both KO'ed from questing. You can find them resting at the tent over there.
Red didn't feel like bothering people who are on their break. So she asked Tanya about the question on the flyer. I see. Tanya tells Red James's dilemma.
🔐 James's Dilemma

🕰️ [20:10] 🕰️
Tanya: James was worried about himself dying so he wanted to leave his unfinished work for someone else to continue. His unfinished work and treasures are locked at some location. He was wondering how he could pass down that information without also letting someone else steal his treasures.
Red doesn't feel like she is good at this kind of puzzle. What is it that he has that others can't just take? Magic Bakery's guideline is that everything is public domain. If you make something, even if it is unfinished, you would make it public so that people can take it continue if they want to. Sasha: ARP! ⚡Cardinal: LRRH referred to an undocumented guideline. LRRH takes 1 psychic damage. LRRH is now KO'ed. Tanya used the undefined Oracle Skill Insight. Tanya takes 1 psychic damage. Tanya is now KO'ed. Oh wow, I didn't realize that Tanya had been cheating! Not that I am complaining. Double KO FTW! LRRH has added a guideline. LRRH: LRRH has revived herself. So as I was saying, if you are making something worth continuing, your unfinished work should be available for free. There shouldn't be a password. The thing you make shouldn't be able to let people do bad things. But you can make ____ from flour. Flour is commonly available. But you don't know what James is making. Maybe he is making ____, but he wanted to use them for good. ... Red realized she has no idea what the conversation is about. All she knows is that Magic Bakery makes bread. Bread is not a threat to anyone and it is cute. I would send that question to @Mikela because at this point that is just a puzzling curiosity. Magic Bakery has nothing that is password protected. What about the account password to the world? That's not important because people can just make their own website with the same content. Well, I don't know the specific context to argue with you but I feel that you are just leaving the ball to someone else. I think you didn't solve what troubled James. He is just going to ask you again when he comes back. I hope that it wouldn't be so cryptic next time he describes it.

The Dashboard has a lot of space again! Let's make the space interesting!

Fina: I am adding a nomination section in that space. And I nominate Arcacia's Plan tab for Best Tab for 1 EXP for the chapter.
Her Plan Tab replaces and includes the old "Updates" tab. Inside that tab, she started with an overall plan, which replaces the Todo list section, followed by an year bar that hides the statistics for the updates. The overall look is clean and saves space on the banner.
Jan 9: Red: Arcacia Plan Tab is now adopted in the Place EXP Guide.
Fina: Next I nominate Ledia's for best tab view for 1 EXP for the chapter.
Despite most of us switching to having individual toggle for the banner tabs last month, Ledia kept the old style, and apparently someone updated the function to hide the display area when the tab is clicked twice. As a result, now Ledia's banner has the best switching tab view.
Jan 9: Red: Ledia Tab View is no adopted in the Place EXP Guide. Fina is recognized as a Herald. {"cmd":"next"}

POLL: Should we suspend TIER 2 and 3 quest rotations and focus on Deer Crossing?

LRRH: This question came up in DX Episode 2. You may still work on your chapter at your pace with rotation suspended. Please let us know your thoughts. If you suspend the rotation, I would start resetting the timer every time I update something related to @Skill. There are many overlap between DX and @Skill, I am actually holding back. So I don't mind if it is suspended. (Jan 7) Thank you for the weekly reminder for Freedom Plaza. I would appreciate the same reminder going forward, even if it is just for me. Could we just let people choose another Tier? (Jan 8) @StarTree, I volunteer @Carrot to be on Tier 4 (No reminder), and leave an empty slot in Tier 1 so that Tier 1 is still on a weekly rotation. My todo list includes repairs. I need a reminder unless you don't want things fixed. Actually, may I be on Tier 2? And make Tier 3 a bi-weekly tier? (@StarTree) @Carrot is now on Tier 4 and @Treasure Tier 2! General maintenance and repairs should be in @Guild, but you are welcome to do that during @Treasure. @Guild time slot is not convenient. Could we make @Treasure Saturday, @Guild Sunday? The lineup is now this: SUN @Guild, MON @Skill, TUE @Puzzle, WED @Seed, THU @Makeover, FRI @Freedom, SAT @Treasure!

While she was KO'ed, Tanya received an anonymous message: Tanya: To the Quest Giver at Deer Crossing Base Camp:
The quest is missing an EXP schedule showing the EXP they would get per task. Without this you aren't giving proper incentives for the players to play the game as a game. You do plan to give players credits PER TASK, not PER DAY, right?? And while you are at it, find a way to show who is about to level up, that would nudge them to join. ~ Queen Anonymous
Queen Anonymous receives Queen Anonymous is now recognized as an Oracle.

Tanya: In response, Tanya updated the charter with an EXP Schedule. The player will get credits per task completed, as logged at the Status Board at Base Camp. The amount of EXP is based on the difficulty of the task itself, not how much time a player spends on the task. However, while a player is doing the task, Cardinal will regularly KO exhausted players to let other players join. With these changes, it is unnecessary to RP to get EXP. As for alerting players who were close to level up...
🏕️ New Helper

Tanya: Tanya had reservations about advertising and asking new people to join this quest because the tasks are difficult and not for everyone. She was afraid that an advertisement would invite too many unqualified helpers that need training.
LRRH: It sounds like you want someone else to babysit non-intensive tasks. As I see it, base camp is getting messy and could use a maid.
Tanya: But your head maid already gets EXP for cooking. She will level up today one way or another.
LRRH: But now I am here, so I want her to be here also.
Tanya: I see. She is welcome to tidy up here and do other quests she wants.
LRRH: Then I will call her.
🎠 Rotation

Tanya: Red, I have another request. Could we suspend all other Guild quest rotation and concentrate on just this quest?
LRRH: I think that is not up to me. People are free to do the quest they want.
Tanya: But I can see a difference if you suspend the rotation. People are still free to do what they want. But the rotation makes people do things according to 'their turn' instead of the priority, even when they agree with the priority.
LRRH: Is that so?
Tanya: I believe so. When you setup a rotation schedule, you make people feel that they should work on those other quests.
LRRH: I want to see how others think. @StarTree, could you set up a poll at Dashboard on whether we should suspend Tier 2 and Tier 3 rotations?
StarTree: Copy that!
LRRH: I will decide after seeing some responses.
Tanya: Thank you.
🧹 Cleaning up

Kisaragi: Kisa reports to the base camp with bento boxes. She has been briefed that Heroes have been working really hard, and she may start cleaning up as she without supervision and let the Heroes rest. Kisa looks around to check the condition around camp.
Cardinal: Kisa sees several messes. The quest board was cluttered with information scattered at different places. There was an incomplete roster of player. The desk was cluttered with paper and unprocessed quest logs. Kisa also notices Cardinal as in its familiar form. Cardinal sees Kisa but does not know what archetype or skills Kisa has.
Kisaragi: Kisa greets Cardinal with her character card, then adds herself to the roster. Kisa assumes that her archetype is Paladin, but she will let Cardinal be the judge. Kisaragi is now recognized as a Paladin.
Kisaragi: Kisa wants to know who else is around.
Cardinal: There was no one else around. It is nighttime. The Heroes are either sleeping in tents or have logged out.
Kisaragi: Kisa feels a bit relieved. She starts her tidying up...
📜 The Desk

Kisaragi: Kisa started at sorting the things on the desk. The desk was cluttered with seven things: Charter, Plan, Preliminary survey reports, Maps, Hero profiles, Status reports, and Quest logs. There was no clear space left on the desk. So she filed the papers vertically to make space. ✨
📰 Old News

Kisaragi: While putting things vertically, Kisa noticed that the stacks of preliminary reports and charter seldomly used. So she grouped them together into the stack "Reports". 📂
🗺️ The Map

Kisaragi: And there was the map, which seemed important. So she blew up the section near Deer Crossing and hang it prominently, then started adding pins to key locations. 📍

At the Guild Log there is an obscure statistics that gives the guild a level from total member EXP. With the results from yesterday, which was a gain of 64 EXP (!), the guild had reached LEVEL 100!! Congratulations! 🎊

Sasha: POLL: Use Square to calculate EXP required to reach a level. We had some discussion in the field about EXP and came to a proposal to simplify the math by using square to determine how many EXP is needed to reach a level. For example, to reach level 10, it takes 100 EXP. If we change to this way, everyone will become slightly lower level. The guild will become level 68. Tanya, who is Level 20 now, will become Level 19. @StarTree, could we get a poll about this?
With Square EXP it will take 10000 EXP for the guild to be at Level 100! It will sound more EPIC and we are almost halfway there! (Our current EXP is 4742!) I proposed the current EXP calculation partly as a joke. I don't mind if it is changed. BTW, those who are below level 14 might see their level increase by 1. Square EXP might be simpler, but not as magical. The original EXP formula will still be legendary in my heart. I respectfully disagree with what Ledia said. Square number contain way more magical power. 289. In case you don't know, that is the square of 17. And how many EXP I need to have to become level 17, again. We need the EXP calculation to be stable for updating the character cards. And an difficult to calculate relation is bad for promotion. So let's do this. Little Red Riding Hood hereby proclaims that square number are cute. @StarTree, @Cardinal, please proceed with the proposed change. And it is done! Please be mindful of your new Player Level! This poll has concluded!

On her way to look for new ingredients, Arcacia noticed the base camp at Deer Crossing. It seems that there is something really important going on. Maybe she should set up a massage booth there also? But home is just a teleport away. Arcacia leaves her card before moving on to her own quest for the day. Arcacia is now recognized as an Alchemist. Casey passed by the base camp to see what the big deal was. The camp was unexpectedly tidy, and there was a map with some symbols she didn't understand. The roster looked interesting so she left her card there too. She didn't come to do the Deer Crossing quest. She came to recharge a magic mirror to tell whether it could be a good gift. Casey is now recognized as an Alchemist.
Is the mirror useful? Casey was surprised that the bird was talking. Not that the bird could talk, but that it decided to talk to her. She said, "It doesn't seem very useful. The mirror has a habit of showing something else by itself, which is a bit distracting. It might work well at a waiting room though. Are you going to give it to someone? I think I made a mistake of waking it. Now it only recognizes us (Magic Bakery). It has become quite useless to others... Why did you get it in the first place? I thought it could replace some clutters, but it may very well end up being a clutter itself... A clutter that can't be donated. You can still donate it if you attach your account email and password. But while we are here, let's do Deer Crossing quest. Of course, you don't have to do it if you don't want to.
It has been a week since the Heroes had updated the reports. There was a stack of... Tanya noticed that the base camp has been tidied up. Although the field notes still need to be filed. Kisaragi receives Kudos from Tanya. Let's start with the Quest Map and pin all the locations. I think the pin head we use are too big. Let's make them smaller. The group at base camp finished added checking the reports and pinned the locations on the map. There were "What do we feel like doing today?" Could we do the watermill? That seems to be the easiest one, and I am new here. The watermill itself is still in the safezone, but the clues to the enchantment would be deeper in the forest. There would be monsters and possibly golems. You might need to fight or defend yourself going there. Sounds like I should go with Evelyn, then? Who else wants to come? Before you start forming a team, you should know that the bigger your party, the higher chance that your party would be seen as a threat and get attacked. Here are the chances I see:> For every half hour in the forest, there is 2/6 chance on each Hero that something will find the group a threat and call for help to attack the Heroes. The first encounter will have as many enemies as the party size. If the party does not TPK, each encounter thereafter will have up to 2 more enemies than the previous. 1/6: Same number as previous. 2/6: 1 more enemy. 3/6: 2 more enemies. Still feel like going? It can't be that bad. Let me go with just one other person... Casey decided to go with Arcacia because they are both new to the quest. We are looking for the enchantment pattern for the watermill. Tanya said we might be able to find clues in the forest. Should we ask the trees then? Oh? You can do that? Arcacia goes to a tree, gently put her hands and forehead on it for a few moments... I can't! 😜 "Ah well, you tried." Casey said, and though maybe StarTree would have been the perfect person for this quest. She could probably solo it in no time if the trees knew. And they most likely do. But Casey is satisfied for this journey where both Heroes have ZERO clue. I break off some loose leaves and flowers to make a a wreath headpiece while planning to aimlessly and mindlessly wander with Casey in the forest. Cardinal, what is our chance of finding a clue? I forgot to ask Tanya. The party wandered in the forest. Half hour has passed. 🎲🎲 Not far away the party sees what seems like two rock golems doing something. It is not clear what they are doing or which direction they are facing. Maybe we can ask them? Casey: But James's report said we can't communicate with them, we need wisps as intermediates.
Arcacia: Ooo there was a report?! 😆
Casey: Casey thinks that Arcacia might be more high than StarTree.
Cardinal: Just as Casey was thinking about that, it had become clear that one of the golems had lifted up a boulder from the ground.
Casey: Casey thinks that this is bad and is prepared to dodge if they throw it. "We should probably hide." Casey thought, but fell short of saying it out loud.
Arcacia: Arcacia mirrors the golem's movement and lifts up her wreath, with no particular intention or meaning.
Cardinal: How big is the wreath?
Arcacia: The hole is shoulder width.

Cardinal: The golem that lifted the boulder lowered its boulder. While the other one lifted its.
Arcacia: Arcacia puts her wreath around her neck and started humming the tune of Fireflies of the Milky Way https://musescore.com/user/35526651/scores/6287786 for no particular reason.

Cardinal: The second golem puts down its boulder. The two appears to be sitting still. They now look like ordinary rocks.
Casey: Is there any clue around?
Cardinal: The party has no idea whether they have or have not seen any clue, or whether there will or will not be any clue. Casey: Arg.
Arcacia: If we don't find any clue, we could just start from scratch. We'll enchant it our own way.
Casey: How do we enchant it ourselves?
Arcacia: We will make it so that everyone who sees the watermill feels loved. Arcacia receives Arcacia is now recognized as a Cleric.
Casey: The party went to the watermill with Arcacia's wreath and love, where Casey started writing a scroll. Based on the design and the actual watermill, Casey made a list on how to care for the watermill so it my run for a long time. With a wreath hang over it, it drew people's attention as they took breaks from construction. Casey wondered how much love they were able to give.
Arcacia: The more we care the more love it will show. Let's come back again and again.
Casey: The watermill quest is taken cared of. We didn't find a clue, but we enchanted it our own way.
Tanya: I see. Thank your for your good work.
Casey: But that's not all, we found something extra at the watermill. **Hands a scroll to Tanya.**
Owl Forest resealing scroll obtained. Casey: Someone clearly loved the Owl Forest. We can't let their love go to waste. Casey receives Tanya: I see. This is a great find. We will study it. Thanks again for your good work. And for taking care of the guild.
Casey: "It's not that big of a deal."
Tanya: Before moving on to the next quest item, Tanya decided that now is a good time to tally the task credits for Episode 1 and 2. The tally was based on the Status Board. The result is next.

POLL: There was a suggestion of Bye days. Applied to Tier 3, there will be three bye days. How does that work? What should be shown? StarTree doesn't understand!

For a bi-weekly tier with 11 quests, it means that we have 14 days to complete 11. When a quest is attended to, just move it a sub-tier such as 3.1, and don't show it until two weeks later. Then there will be days when we would see no quest left in Tier 3. The days we see nothing are the bye days. Are we really doing bi-weekly, or bi-monthly? Bi-monthly will give us two bye weeks in a year, which will be similar to having guild vacation days. I don't mind bi-weekly or bi-monthly. But bi-weekly could match payroll calendar. What I mind is that people don't do a few small things in one sitting and say they had done enough to check off a few periods. I also don't want people to intentionally spread out small tasks over a long period. But between the two, I would rather people do some part, then wait and see if someone else has a better way of doing it, then continue with the better way. The tiers are just reminders. Actual measure of the quality of the result should be done based on the place level. Each of our location has a place level. We start the year at a certain level. A year from now are we still at the same level? That's what matters. If the period doesn't matter, could we match the moon phase? There are 13 moons in a year. today is first quarter 🌓. Next last quarter will be Jan 25 🌗. Using moon phase is so mystical! I like it! Let's not make the same mistake of choosing something niche and uncommon. If you need to reference a table to know when something is due, then it is too complicated. Then it comes down to either monthly or bi-monthly. I would say let's just do Monthly for the rest of January and see how it goes. During a month, you could set a goal for the month and try to finish it. Now we have this "Poll" section and you can discuss and get feedback. I like Ivy's idea. I think it will destroy the snooze issue, and our plans and results would make good summary banners for the Dashboard. If we do that, we don't even need Tier 3 or 4 any more. We just need a list of monthly goals. We could still have the weekly rotation schedule. Ivy's idea seems like the solution to my worries. I suggest that for now, we make no change to the Tier reminder (no bye days), but people may make a monthly goal for their chapter. There is no rule on how easy or difficult that goal is.

POLL: It seems that every month StarTree forgets what she is supposed to do and can't write a charter! What do you think @Board should be? What do you want StarTree to do for the guild?

StarTree is clearly the one keeping the board (message board and quest board) up and is really good at it. I don't see a problem keeping it that way and have someone else try to do Front Desk as a different charter. What about @Freedom? StarTree is basically doing @Freedom's charter. Maybe StarTree should be the Mayor! StarTree doesn't want to be the major! StarTree wants to be free! Maybe we should emphasize the difference between Place Level, and the Top Contributor. If we keep @Freedom's charter unique, then it means that StarTree had been leveling up Freedom Plaza. James, the Mayor, can still be the Mayor in the RP story, but the leaderboard should show StarTree next to @Freedom because she is the Top Contributor. There is no rule that a charter needs to be unique. Two charters can be the same. The score should go to the person in charge of the one that is contributing. I don't want a charter to exist by itself. I want each charter to embody what its writer aspires to do. If you make a charter, it should be something you care about and would take charge working on it. It should have that personal connection. Then what was it about "a charter is not yours, it belongs to the guild." when we were at Evelyn's Garden? (Edit: Link added by StarTree) That is if you go AFK on a charter that other people in the guild need. For example, if you make a charter saying that you want to be the one designing our characters, and ask people to send request to you, then you go AFK, the requests are going to at your place. But the requests and the workspace do not belong to you. The rest of the guild may go to your place and help out finishing them. You don't have an exclusive right to the orders. Anyone is allowed to help. Then, say the rest of the guild kept doing that for a few weeks and got it running really well, and then you return from your absence, you don't have a right to kick out the rest of the guild and take the place for your own. The place is never "yours" to beging with. It belongs to the guild because it is a chartered place. I want to say I understand half of it, but I think it is more like one-third. Sasha is disappointed that Red didn't say the magic word for her to use ARP. Explanations like this are important perspectives and should be written as part of the guild rule. I'm not good at speaking in rules! When I say something is a rule, people misinterpret it and do weird things! So just let me ramble! I think Red is saying a charter exists for a person to declare how they want to help others. Once declared, everyone else is free to join and get credits for helping regardless whether they do it under the organization of the person who first wrote the charter. A charter exists to inspire, not to control. Evelyn receivesEvelyn is now recognized as Cleric. I think I understand what Evelyn said. Red gives Evelyn Merit.So, as I was saying, since it is clear that StarTree is good at, and is passionate maintaining our board, by that I mean this dashboard, I think it would make most sense if you craft Charter 18 according to what she does. You don't need to intentionally set new goals or cover task no one is doing for the guild. You may just focus on what you already do. We get problems when people try to declare more than what they are passionate about. Then the score of @Freedom is wrong. When I go to the board I consider myself going to StarTree's, not James's. James's usefullness is less than monthly. I agree. No offense to James. For those who might read this later, the current Place Level EXP of Freedom Plaza is 15. It is at the top of the leaderboard. We are saying that it shouldn't be there because it is taking credits for what was done by StarTree. StarTree did the scoring! You did it wrong then. But according to Red's intention, we can't write a charter for you. You have to write your own. Can StarTree have no charter like Vivi's? StarTree wants to be free! This discussion is going too long. How about we sleep over it and resume later?
It seems that my Charter had caused some trouble. I have updated it to Version 3 and deducted some points from my Place EXP. Everyone is doing great. Let's keep up the good work! Mikela receives Kudos from James for creating Mikela Jump.James is awarded Merits by LRRH. @Board now has a Charter and leads the Place EXP leaderboard as Level 4! This POLL has concluded.

POLL: There is a backlog from Cardinal Quest field notes that should be scored but StarTree doesn't now how to score them!

If someone is present or checked in, they should get 1 EXP on the guild log column. I think that is already done minus errors. What about the other credits? In the field log there are stars. Are people supposed to get a point per star? I envision that the document map will be used as a score board. When something is done, you put your name there then Google Sheets may just count your names. On the same cell, there would also be a status flag, and Google Sheet can read that to format the cell color. Show me how it is done so I can tell if the scoring is wrong. Let's score today. Blackchecked in. Then later Casey joined. So they should appear on our daily row. ✅ Then as you go down, you see Casey got a Star mark for searching for courtyard leyline. So you would put [Casey] under the Part column on the row Courtyard leyline. In this case, she hasn't finished, so you could jus leave the cell white. According to James, white should mean a situation where no one has any info. Yellow is for a situation where someone could work on. Then let's put an @ for yellow. # for brown, and $ if it is done (Green). Can a name appear more than once in a cell? No. Tasks that are difficult would have multiple columns. Next, Casey mapped out what we need for the Reservoir. So that is $ [Casey]. Next, Casey determined that there is no need for a scroll there. So it would be .[Casey]. Next, Casey tried to look for the Rosetta Crystal, so @[Casey] there. So based on the log alone, Casey scored 4 EXP today. She was scoring more points if we dig deeper and count the descriptions in our Master Map. But we can do that when we do the Master Map scoring. The counter is now online! StarTree, you don't need to go through our field logs and do the scoring for us. I think the deal is whoever wants EXP need to log their score by themselves. If there is a problem or dispute on who did what, they we can go to the log to verify. You don't need to go through the log and check that each star is counted. It would be tedious and inefficient because you would end up asking us which column you should put someone's name. The person who did the quest should know that and enter it by themselves. If they don't know it they shouldn't be getting an EXP. StarTree is not needed! StarTree, could you help us on something else? It is about the side journal. Let's talk at Court Arsenal.

QUEST CHARTER XXVIII
Version 3
Magic Bakery Peacemaker Blog Backup
James @Freedom
January 14, 2022

Version Up

⭐ StarTree has been doing a phenomenal job maintaining the discussion board for the guild. To avoid confusion, this charter is updated to highlight its intent in light of the status quo.

Peacemaking Relevance

⭐ This charter maintains its commitment to provide a publicly viewable discussion and information hub for peacemakers to discuss, plan and to bond with each other, although those functions are met by StarTree @Board and Cardinal @Cardinal. To continually support their contributions, this charter will focus on backing up their contents, and adding/linking contents from older versions of the forum to make it convenience to see the whole story that was scattered in different media.

Redefined Scope of Aspirations

⭐ Weekly rotation to backup and check guild assets and guild well-being.
⭐ Maintain guild history and links to previous documents
⭐ Create summaries and celebrate guild progress
⭐ Ensure that there is a place for discussion and exchange. Recreate the discussion board as needed.

POLL: There is now a Kudos Diary at 202208181022|Happy Garden.

I hope that we could eventually fill it with a message for every day. Is it important to spread out the kudos? You don't have to intentionally spread them out, I just hope that it would naturally have something on every day 😊 Great Idea! I added an entry for 202201130513|Casey. Thank you for picking up trashes along the paths!

💝 = Latest format (202407)
A Happy Calendar is a rolling calendar that marks the days when something happy happened in any year. We started the canlendar in January 2022, but we also tag older posts. If a post makes you happy, please give it a happy tag, then it will show up when the date is clicked on the calendar. We try marking every date with happy posts, hopefully every date will have a happy post!
    You can participate in the happy calendar by sharing happy moments and tagging.
      To tag a node, add the tag 'data-happy'. To tag a message, add the date tag and use the icon 💟 or 💗.
    Upgrade the format of each rolling calendar to the latest. Updated July. Updated September and checked August. Checked September and updated October. Updating November. Checked October Be mindful of which day never had any happy moment and fill it with a happy moment. This quest may involve checking the messages of a day in other means and retrospectively tag or correct the tag for the latest rolling calendar format.

14 of each month https://matadornetwork.com/abroad/the-14th-of-every-month-in-south-korea-is-a-holiday/ Add QSLBL query here to query all nodes with 💟 icon but without a date. Upgrade kudo code to credit both the sender and receiver Calendar should have a query to epic. Add flowers to the calendar
Should birthdays be listed here or separately on each kudo calendar? (1/5, 3/11, 8/13, 8/15, 8/25, 8/30, 10/24, 11/12) I think they should be on the Kudo calendar.
    Update the query of kudo to query nodes with mbkudo Upgrading. Anything to be listed by the rolling calendar needs the date tag because JQuery can only query the beginning or end of an attribute. If the MMDD substring is inside the ID or DTS, then it can't see it. Either that or query without the date then filter for those with correct MMDD. https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-write-a-jQuery-regex-selector-for-a-DOM-element-containing-substring-abcd Testing. Updated the function calls in June calendar, but the calendar needs a macro that makes the whole table. Adding a RES type that is a calendar. Adding MacroResCalendar. Tested and done for June! Making the code also scan for the mbKudo tag. I think we don't need the calendar to scan for mbKudo because kudos can be marked by 💟. The kudo tag is supposed to kudo both the sender and the receiver.

POLL: The effort on quest and the credits seem disproportional. Getting EXP from the actual cardinal quest is WAY harder than doing normal guild quest. Can we fix that?

We are limited by simplicity. For a single task that is long, we are rewarding maximum to those who do enough, then let others continue, instead of those who try to do the whole thing by themselves. But maxing out after 1 EXP per task is too soon. Five or so should be more appropriate. And I think that the accounting shouldn't be driving the behavior. If people want to help, then let them help all they want and reward them accordingly. The accounting needs to be upgraded to reward people who are helping. @Ivy, could you upgrade the accounting? I don't want people to start making rows in Guild Log just to track the additional EXP they should get. I want the Cardinal Quest Map to handle the field scores alone. The scoring map is now upgrade to count the number of times a name appears even if it is in the same cell. I also added some columns to help audit for errors, and added 4 points for Ledia on her cell today. Now we can see that Zoey is leading the scoreboard with 21 points, followed by Ledia and Evelyn with 8 points each. Thank you, Ivy. Eight points for today sounds about right. @Zoey, how did you get so many points? Ledia gives Ivy Kudos. I was there almost every day. I've just added more auditing statics. I think Zoey got 15 points or more on the same day. She got them from mapping and sending out orders. So it wasn't just because she was there everyday. There are some tasks that are easier to get EXP. When you are there everyday, you would be right there when you the opportunity to get easy EXP comes. It balances out. You got 8 points in one day, I have 21 points total. I am sure I was there more than 3 days. So on average you are getting more points than I did per day. If you keep at that pace you will catch up in no time. That is encouraging. I am going to add a new leaderboard for Cardinal Quest alone! First with Fort Arsenal scores, Deer Crossing will be added back later when we get to it! @James, please don't freak out! THE GAME IS ON! This POLL has concluded.

How do people feel about the game we had on Sunday? What do you want to add most to our game? Or what does our game need the most?

Can we just keep playing first? I am dying to shoot something down with my bow XD Ledia: I think the format of the game is fun, but not as satisfying because we aren't earning real EXP unlike the actual Cardinal Quest. I don't want to get EXP from Cardinal Quest, then use that EXP to play a different game. I think we were doing okay translating our field notes into a story, but it would help if we know what we will be dealing with ahead of time. Sasha: Ledia, that is what I am going for. I am not trying to just play random games. @Tanya, what will be tomorrow's Cardinal Quest? Tanya: Tomorrow we will try to deal with the spawn point at the Geyser. The overall drill will be similar: Zoey will lead us to the spawn area according to the reports, we will try to clear the area and wait for them to respawn to know the exact spawn point, then we will seal it while fighting adds. Ledia: I think our quest is potentially way better than the Sunday game. We just need a better "adventure card". What kind of monster will we be fighting? Tanya: We only have rough descriptions. I believe it is a highly armored monster that can shoot water jets. But we are doing the scouting on the same day, so we don't know it right now. Zoey: We will be fighting a Squirtle XD Tanya: The more scouting we do beforehand, the more information we will have for making that "adventure card". I was hoping that we would get ahead on Sunday. Evelyn: I like how in our Cardinal Quest we don't have to worry about dying. If we all get KO'ed we can just continue the next day. But I think our field notes was a little strange. It is not in chronological order, so I can't see a story from it, and my memory is not very good. 😅 I noticed that too. I was trying to make it easier keep score. The problem we had earlier, was that if we just mark when someone scores a point in the timeline, the person keeping score would need to read the whole thing to know where to put that point on the scoring map. So we started keeping a separate section to track scores, ordered by location. Then we didn't bother also keeping the chronology, and just mark on the field scoring map directly. LRRH: @Ivy, any thoughts? Ivy: It sounds like you want to sort the same data sometimes by time and sometimes by location. Then your field log should probably be a spreadsheet and not a text file. If we try to do that on a table, wouldn't we need to enter the time and the location everytime? That would be tedious. Ivy: You could use a macro then bind it to a shortcut key. I see. I'll try it. Tanya gives Kudos to Sasha, Zoey, Ledia, Evelyn, Red, and Ivy.

Thank you for ideas to improve the field log for Cardinal Quest.

Cardinal Quest

We went to the Geyser today and tried the new field log suggested yesterday. We got 76 lines with scores. @StarTree, how do you want to do this?

StarTree: May I add tallying formulas to the field log? Then I will import only the final score from all days on the field log. On our Guild Log I will only have the current Cardinal Quest field scores with no history! Tanya: I think that's fine. StarTree: May I turn the abbreviations of the names into full name, and make each row only have one name? Tanya: You may modify the field log as long as its information is not lost. You may add columns and rows, and use a new sheet. StarTree: Is it fine if I don't update the Map section in Guild Log? If this system works, StarTree won't be using that Map for scoring! Tanya: That's fine also. StarTree: Wee~!

Ledia: This sounds like some super powerful thing. What do we use it for? Ivy: That's for you to figure out. Tanya: Is it okay if I put the Cardinal Quest map here at Dashboard with JQuery? Ivy: Just do it and see if someone vetoes it. Zoey: What have you done, Tanya? Now no one can rest with the quest map up like that all the time! XD 🤣

We spent the whole day trying to map out a section of Geyser cave and couldn't finish. Then Black came along point out that according to the old map our high power crystal could fit through the old tunnel. Did we spent the whole day doing nothing?

Casey: Then Tanya came along and said the old map might have a typo and had the wrong dimensions. If she was right, then we haven't finished and there is no shortcut. So. Who is right? Evelyn: I think even if it could fit back then, we shouldn't take that chance, since it contradicts everything else... You were the one who realized that it won't fit. And we checked your work. I believe in you. Black: Tanya is probably right. It has to be a typo. I didn't check as much as you did and just made a passing comment. Tanya: I can't find more concrete evidence that it is a typo. But it could be an error. Sylvia: It has to be an error, because the dimensions don't match up with the next room. Sylvia receives Tanya: I figured it out. The original map had no error. What we thought was the original map was actually a partially modified version. Someone had partially updated it to the dimensions we want. Casey: Well... That could only be me, right...? I was the only one editting it yesterday. My bad. Sorry for confusing everyone.

He sold canvas and later denim pants to the miners. He was Levi Strauss! More

Hey hey hey, it's 1854, let's strike it rich at the 202201290832|Gold Rush! Mikela: I don't know how to do this yet, but if you like or approve this week's puzzle, could you leave a mark somehow? I want to show if you like the puzzle or not. StarTree: The puzzle now has a like counter like the Nominations!

🧩 Gold Rush

Mikela: The year was 1854. The California Gold Rush was in full swing. A man went to California hoping to make a fortune by selling tents but the weather was nice and the miners didn't need tents. He ended up making a fortune anyway and he is still famous today. How did he do it and who was he?
Tanya: Isn't this a trivia, not a puzzle? Either you know it or you don't. Casey: If it is not a bad puzzle, then it has something to do with the context. P4: Did he get rich by mining gold like everyone else? Mikela: No, he did not! Amelia: People used his tents to collect gold. 44: Because he sold the parts of the tents? Casey: Did he get rich by selling the tents as something else? Mikela: Yes! What did he sell and who was he? Ledia: Levi. He sold jeans. Sasha: Could we get more hints? Evelyn: Ledia knowing it is a big hint... 😉 Mikela: What do you think tents were made of? Sasha: That blue thing. Tanya: That's plastic tarp. They won't have that. Sasha: What were tents made of back then? Zoey: May I Google this? I might see the answer... Tanya: Tents should be made of canvas back then. Ledia: The thing that he end up selling was not made of canvas but a similar fabric called denim. If that doesn't ring a bell, it is typically dyed blue. Sasha: He sold blue jeans! Casey: OMG it's got to be Levi! Mikela: He was Levi Strauss and sold jeans! Ledia is our winner, congratulations! Zoey: Fact check: Levi went to San Francisco in March 1854.

For @Seed, there is an objective to evaluate candidates of peaceful concepts. How should we do that? Could you give an example of a concept you want to evaluate? Say, Freedom of Association and Choice Architecture. Choice Architecture is not evaluable because it is a subject. Freedom of Association is a concept that allowing others to choose their associates is a human right. How do we justify that letting people choose is peaceful?

Tanya: Peace can be defined as allowing differences in a way without creating conflicts. For @Seed, you could list different definitions of Peace, and evaluate a concept according to each definition. Then you just let people decide for themselves which definition of peace they want. For example, Arcacian Principle can be considered a definition of peace. And you can evaluate other concepts to see if they are Arcacian. I understand.
The police put up some signs warning people about a certain type of crime, but it ended up helping the criminals. Why?


The police posted a sign "Beware of Pickpockets". And the pickpockets saw that when people see the sign, they reach for and check their wallets. Then the pickpockets know where their wallets are!
|
SATURDAY FEB 5 2022

Tanya: Did the signs end up teaching people how to commit the crime? Mikela: Nopa! The sign was simple with no details about how those crimes are committed. | Zoey: Were the signs posted at places vulnerable to that crime, so now the criminals know where to go? Mikela: Nopa! The criminals were already there, but the signs made it easier to commit the crime. | Sylvia: I think I know the answer. Sylvia: Is the sign "Beware of pickpockets" ? Mikela: Yes it is! CONGRATULATIONS to Sylvia! 🎊 Others may keep guessing how it helps the pickpockets! Sylvia is recognized to have Invisible Hand.

⭐ Puzzle

Mikela: Mary was discharged from the hospital after spending three days there. She was not sick nor injured, but she had to be carried out when she left. Why?
I hope it is not what I think... Amelia: She was dead. Mary was ALIVE when she was discharged. Thank you! 😅 Evelyn: Did Mary work too much so the hospital sent her home? Nopa! Mary doesn't work at the hospital. Casey: Is it normal for Mary to be carried? Yes it is! But why? P4: Was Mary a plushie? 🧸 She went to the hospital with her owner, and they left together. Cute!!! Mary is a person! Amelia: Mary was a baby Mikela: CONGRATULATIONS! You are correct! 🎊
Everyone is a winner!

A security gate scans an ID on a vehicle before letting it in. If the ID is not recognized, the scanner will send a short pulse and the gate will not open. If the ID is recognized, the scanner will send a long pulse that is three times as long as the short one, and the gate will open. What is the simplest cheat to get the gate open with an unrecognized ID?

The answer is not posted yet. Give it your best shot!

SATURDAY FEB 12 2022

Amelia: You let it scan three times. Tanya: That would create three short pulses. | Tanya: Here is a fair warning. I don't know the solution. I saw this puzzle in a dream. I was thinking about it when I woke up. Sasha: If you don't know the solution, isn't this a waste of time...? Tanya: That's why I'm warning you. | P4: Maybe you'll get the answer in the next dream? Tanya: Perhaps. | Black: I don't know if this helps, but if the scanner is electronic, its pulses are usually generated based on the resonance frequency of a quartz crystal. Depending on how the crystal is cut, the crystal frequency could change outside its intended operation range. But we are talking about very very small change, in the scale of hundreds of pulses per a million, nowhere near making a pulse three times as long. Ledia: No freezing or heating up the scanner, then? Black: I think the scanner will be destroyed first. Evelyn: We are not trying to do anything illegal, are we? 😅 Tanya: We are not. There is no way a real life security gate would just rely on the length of a simple pulse. Evelyn: Then could I just cast SLOW on the scanner? If I cast double decel, then it would be three times as slow. Sasha: That could pass as a solution in a game. People normally don't think that they can cast slow on objects, or there would normally be no useful effect on objects.

202202160835|Is Bing Reward Arcacian?
February 16, 2022 Wednesday 8:35 AM
World Tree

For more than a decade, Microsoft had gamified their search engine. You earn points when you search with Bing, and you could trade those points for gift cards. Is this Arcacian?

Tanya: It would make certain assumptions about statistics invalid, but overall it is Arcacian because arguably when people use a search engine, it helps others who are using it, and no one is forced to participate. I like how you could choose to donate the points. Should we start using Bing?
Ledia: Do we get guild credits for using Bing? I don't know what it is. Could someone explain it? It is just a reward program that you could earn points toward getting a gift card for using Bing.
LRRH: How does that help people? I don't understand. According to it helps prevent Google from dominating the search engine market. Hmm... I would say no, because if you use Bing, you are already getting Bing reward, so the guild doesn't need to give you a reward even if using Bing helps people.
Ledia: I meant if we get Bing rewards for the Guild.
Ivy: In that case that would just be the same as donating to the Guild. Donors should get a reward. We have never tied guide credits to a monetary value. I feel that if we tie it to a monetary value, then there will be a lot more bureaucracy and book keeping, because people will start treating the guild like a bank or a place of guaranteed employment because we don't turn down people trying to do a guild quest. I am not asking the guild to let people cash out their credits. But if people donate money to the guild they should get credits.
LRRH: I don't have an objection if there is no cashing out guild credits. How many credits should a donor get? That's an interesting question. How about 1 credit per dollar? Hmm... but what do we do if the value of a dollar changes?
Tanya: Should we use a meal as a reference? If someone feeds the guild one simple meal, then it is worth 1 credit. Suppose the market price of a simple meal is $5, then the current conversion is 1 credit for every $5. That seems too low...
LRRH: I don't want to give Guild points for people simply browsing the internet or playing trivia. I would rather people just do the guild quests. And we don't really need monetary donations so I would shelf that topic until it becomes more relevant.
Zoey: In summary, Bing reward is an Arcacian mechanism but it doesn't have enough peacemaking quality for our guild to award credits. Thank you for the comments.

They come together to honor their organ donor!

SATURDAY FEB 19 2022

Robert: Is it because Google told them to and people are sheep? Mikela: Very interesting but not the answer to this puzzle! | Amelia: Is it a holiday? Like Martin Luther King? Mikela: No. | Evelyn: Is the person famous? So they know about them, but don't know them personally? Mikela: The person is not famous, but became very important to those five people who honor them sincerely! | Ledia: Did that person die saving their lives? Mikela: That is extremely close! I would consider that an equally correct answer, but there is just one piece of detail if others want to keep guessing. Hint: The person who died didn't die while trying to save someone. Zoey: You mean the person dies, and their death ended up saving the five people? Mikela: Yes, what is going on? Evelyn: The deceased was an organ donor. 😢 Mikela: That is the full answer! Zoey: Onion Ninja. 😢

Where is the Pea?

Why do people seldom win when they play the shell game where they guess which shell has a pea after shuffling? P4: Is it because the shuffler is cheating? Mikela: Yes, but how? Sasha: They don't put the pea there until they reveal it! Mikela: That's correct! Congratulations!

🥨 | | Because the shuffler chooses whether to put the pea under the shell (from their sleeve) as they lift a shell!
Last week, we talked about what we will play next. Who wants to finish Hellapagos first? Ledia: It has been a while. Can we get a recap on where we were? Otherwise I am for finishing Hellapagos first. StarTree: It was Day 4 with heavy rain 🌧️🌧️🌧️! The players were forming a woodcutting / fighting group to deal with the snake. Players who signed up for the fighting were: StarTree, Ledia, Natalie, Vivi, Black, Mikela, and 3B! Zoey: I want to fight now that I know I am DPS XD 😆 Black: I can trade spot with you. Zoey: @Evelyn, come join the fighting party. Evelyn: Okay. 😀 Tanya: Then I will gather food. Black will gather wood. StarTree: @Sasha, who will be GM and when are we doing this? Sasha: I think Cardinal can GM. Is it too must of a rush if we shoot for restarting tomorrow? Zoey: I'm used to playing in the weekend XD 😆 StarTree: Now Pinging @Natalie and @3B. StarTree: @Cardinal, this was the summary of the boss. According to Ledia, the boss snake was a robot! Cardinal: Understood. Natalie: Hey! Long time no see! Let's do this! StarTree: Welcome back! 3B: I can play but my level is probably the lowest in the group. Zoey: 12 levels should be plenty to last three rounds! 😆 Ledia: At start of Round 4 there is supposed to be a heavy area attack dealing 3 dmg to each. That can go through protect and KO maybe half of us. Cardinal: @3B, @Natalie, could you add your game skills to the skill list before the game? I need to know at least three stats: Your max hit point, your basic melee or ranged attack, and your ability to dodge attacks. Mikela: Hype!
How do you like the calendar with emoji under the day number? Vivi: It doesn't look very nice. It turns into a crash of colors. Could you make another one with avatar pictures for comparison? Ledia: I think it looks fine if we avoid cool color icons like blue and purple. StarTree: I made a second Calendar with avatar of the person with highest score of that day! Zoey: @Sylvia is the MVP of this month! XD 😆 Red: @StarTree, could you change the icon for participation and unicorn to the pretzel? Crystal ball to an egg. Desert island to coconut. And the present to pancakes? StarTree: And it is done! Ledia: Color-wise it looks better, but the pretzel for Adventure Begins series doesn't really fit. Could you try 🐤? Mikela: Can Puzzles use the hatching chicken icon? Albatross can use another bird icon. StarTree: And that is done! Evelyn: It looks so cute! 😍

Hunting Party
February 27, 2022 Sunday
Vacation Island

It was Day 4 since the 22 castaways were stranded at Hellapagos. In the Heavy Rain, the castaways rooted for a plan for everyone to escape. Hunting down the snake in the wood gathering area was the first and pivotal task the castaways must succeed.

Cardinal: Roll call for the hunting party please. Present. Natalie is ready to kick some ... Present. 😅 Wee~!!! I'm here. Present. With P4. Present! 💕
Cardinal: Zoey, Evelyn, in this game you were a kid. You only have 1 hit point. Understood. Yes.
Cardinal: Does the hunting party have a leader? What is the plan or formation going to the woods?
Ledia: I'm the party leader. The plan is StarTree will lead the way because, according to Ivy, the Snake bit her every day. The others who can intercept or stun will follow StarTree nearby to stun the Snake when it appears. All others follow further back, and encircle the snake once the fight starts. Tanya had already seen the Snake's attack pattern. An AE attack will happen in round 2 and 4, dealing 2 and 4 damages. If you will get KO at the start of round 2, close in after it does the AE and get out of range at the end of round 3. Gotta dance! For those who can fly, decide for yourself whether you can safely fly in heavy rain.
Natalie: Do we see lightning and thunder at the moment? I can normally sense how bad the weather. Does it cost you anything to do so? It doesn't. It is kind of part of my intuition. Can you change the weather? Sometimes...? Changing the weather is easier with wind magic. I can make a cloud rain, but once it rained it is gone. Natalie, roll once please. Do we get our own die? There are 10 dice and one is blue. That's up to you and your party. We have many more dice. Natalie: (D6)=5.
Cardinal: You feel that it is quite safe for flying, and you will be forewarned if the weather gets worse.
Natalie is recognized to have the passive ability Lightning Sense Rank A.
She can sense if lightning strike is likely in the next round.
Natalie: I tell the group.
P4: P4 can sense lightning also. When lightning is about to come, P4's ear feels funny inside.
P4 is recognized to have the passive ability Sense Electricity Rank A. Cardinal: So the hunting party goes into the wood in the formation of where StarTree is in front alone. All kids are in the back. Everyone else is in the middle. Natalie is flying. Who else is flying. I am not flying. I am flying around Evelyn.
Mikela: I'm hovering on my cloud. Since... it's all muddy... Flying nimbus XD 😆
Mikela is recognized as a Cloud Rider Rank S.
Evelyn: I cast Protect... Evelyn: (D6+)=2,6.
Protect II is now in effect. Cardinal: StarTree, roll once please. Hold on! Do I have a bow?... XD 😅 StarTree can make you one! Yes, please, I don't want to get ARP in the middle of the fight since Sasha is watching. 😅 StarTree is recognized for Wood Crafting Rank S. Zoey now has a bow and 12 vine arrows.
Zoey: Sorry I didn't think it through. I am not DPS in this fight. I am support... XD 😅 StarTree: (D6)=4.
Cardinal: The party is in the middle of the woods, after a short stop where StarTree just walked back to the rear and gave Zoey the bow and arrows. Everyone other than StarTree and Natalie roll once please. Cardinal receives Zoey: O. M. G. ...
Sasha: (Commentary: HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!)
Ledia: Way to make it exciting, Cardinal.
Ledia gives Cardinal Kudos for taking the opportunities to make things go wrong for the heroes.
🎲
Vivi: Well... Vivi: (D6)=1. Ledia: (D6)=5. 3B: (D6)=2. Mikela: (D6)=2 Zoey: (D6)=5. Evelyn: (D6)=2. P4: (D6)=4.
Vivi: Anti-Venom, Shadow Bind.
Cardinal: Vivi, roll with advantage please. Vivi: (D6)=6, 2.
Vivi felt she was bitten but immediately expelled the venom.
Her Protect has worn off.
Cardinal: Vivi tried to use shadow bind, but there is no shadow to bind.
Vivi: But I would know where it is, won't I?
Cardinal: You feel that it is a long and slender thing extending from deeper in the woods.
Zoey: Faerie Fire!
Faerie Fire lights up a long and slender tentacle shaped object extending from deeper in the woods.
🍇
StarTree: Binding Vines!
Cardinal: Vines spring out from the surrounding to curl around the tentacle. But the nimble tentacle can still retreat quickly back to the deep woods.
Ledia: I follow it to see where it goes with Accel.
Mikela: I follow Ledia on my cloud and amplify Faerie Fire along where I go.
Mikela is recognized for Amplify Rank S. Cardinal | As you give chase with amplified Faerie Fire, you see about a dozen more tentacles in the woods extending toward the party.
⚔️
Ledia: I hit the tentacle I am chasing with Chain Lightning on contact. Roll once with advantage please. Ledia: (D6+)=6,5. Roll four dice please. Ledia: (D6x4)=5,4,4,1.
Chain Lightning spreads through the tentacle monster, dealing it 3 damage. The monster is momentarily stunned. Cardinal: Natalie, from the sky you see the light from Chain Lightning takes the shape of a scorpion. There are tentacles in front, and something bigger rising up at the back like the tail of a scorpion.
Natalie: Water Spear at level 4, aiming at where the body is, the part where everything connects to. Roll 6 dice with advantage please. May I get some dice? 💟 Natalie: (D6+x6)={6,3,3,1,1,1},{6,6,5,3,3,2}.
The Hellapagos King Scorpython takes 3 damage. Cardinal: The ends of the tentacles are glowing in red.
Evelyn: I cast Sanctuary around me, if anyone wants to come in...😅 What does Sanctuary do in combat? It creates a sphere and blocks physical and magical attacks from entering the sphere for one round. It costs 3 mana. Roll three dice please. Evelyn: (D6x3)=1,4,2.
Sanctuary (Blocks 1 damage) is in effect around Evelyn. Evelyn is recognized for the skill Sanctuary Rank B.
P4: P4 double splits in the sanctuary.
Cardinal: 3B, what would your character do?
3B: Is the monster within throwing range?
Cardinal: Although it is raining heavily, it was still day time and you have clear line of sight to several small tentacle heads that are glowing red. One of them is within your throwing range, but the body of the monster is otherwise invisible.
3B: Wing Toss at the head please. Roll once for hit please. 3B: (D6)=4. The tentacle head is hit and destroyed. The monster takes 2 damage. The tentacle leading to that head loses camouflage partially. 3B: I thought I was useless...
Evelyn: I run to 3B to give her a hug.
Cardinal: As Evelyn runs to 3B, every remaining head shoots a red beam toward its target. I am running with Evelyn to stay in the Sanctuary XD 😆 Me 4! I don't run super fast, there should be no problem 😖 I armorize. StarTree hides behind trees! Perfect dodge. Dodge. Barrel Roll
🌈
Natalie: Reflect Light.
Natalie receives Cardinal: StarTree, Ledia, Mikela, Natalie, roll with advantage please. StarTree: (D6+)=5,3. Ledia: (D6+)=4,1. Mikela: (D6+)=1,1. 😱 Natalie: (D6+)=5,5.
Cardinal: The laser sliced trees as StarTree hid behind trees. The party gains 1 extra wood for making rafts. Wee~!!! "Just as planned" XD 🤣
Cardinal: Natalie reflected the laser back at the Scorpython.
The King Scorpython takes 1 damage. Cardinal: As for Mikela... Mikela: Mikela misjudged which head was aiming at her and barrel rolled into the one Ledia dodged. Mikela was hit twice and crashing into a puddle of mud.
Here it comes! XD 🤣
Mikela takes 4 damage. Mikela is KO'ed.
🏳️
Mikela: It was nice meeting you all...
Cardinal: Evelyn, P4, Zoey, roll once please. Evelyn: (D6)=3. P4: (D6)=1. Zoey: (D6)=6.
Protect on Evelyn and P4 have worn off.
Evelyn: I go toward Mikela to revive her. It will take you the whole turn to reach her. OK 😖
Cardinal: Ledia, you see trees falling ahead of you towards you. everyone else also hear that noise and feel the earth trembling as if a giant insect is moving.
Ledia: I want to use my Monster Recognition knowledge and recognize that acid spray can damage this kind of camouflage Roll with advantage please. Ledia: (D6+)=1,3. You vaguely remember that that might be the case. What do you do about it? I Tiamat spray it with acid. No one else is around yet so there should be no friendly fire. Thanks for the consideration! 🏳️ Roll 5 dice with disadvantage please, due to heavy rain. Hmm... Forgot about that... Ledia: (D6-x5)={5,3,2,2,1}, {6,3,2,2,1}. Cardinal: (D6)=1.
Cardinal: As the trees were falling in front of her, Ledia summoned her Tiamat power and spray the monster with acid. Although the rain quickly washes away the acid, the acid seared the camouflage coating of the King Scorpython. Its torso is now covered in a stripe pattern.
The King Scorpython takes 1 damage. Its camouflage on its torso is now damaged. Cardinal: The King Scorpython is not slowing down and is about to run over Ledia. Can I Accel and dive my sword into it The height is not a problem. But you need to roll with advantage. Ledia: (D6+)=6,4.
Cardinal: As the King Scorpython runs toward Ledia, she jumps on top and dove her sword into it from above. Ledia is now riding on it toward the rest of the party.
The King Scorpython takes 1 damage.
Natalie: Do I see its tail? I want to use water spear to take its tail off.
You don't see its tail. But you could see Ledia and remember where the tail would connect to the body. You could also guess where the tail is. I will wait for a better opportunity. Roll with advantage please. Natalie: (D6+)=4,4. Cardinal: (D6)=4.
Cardinal: Natalie, you feel that it will have lightning soon (during next round). I tell the group.
Cardinal: The rest of the group see Ledia riding the King Scorpython toward them, crushing trees in the process. It is going to hit Vivi, StarTree, Evelyn, and 3B, in that order.
☀️
Natalie: Oh oh oh! I scoop down and cast light from the back.
Natalie's light makes long shadow of the monster towards the party.
🌑
Vivi: Shadow Bind. Nice combo! Natalie receives Vivi receives Cardinal: Vivi roll with advantage please. Vivi: (D6+)=6,6.
Vivi is now recognized for Shadow Bind Rank S. Cardinal: As soon as Natalie cast light, Vivi's Shadow Bind connected. The King Scorpython is stunned. As the Shadow Bind spreads through its body outlining its tentacles, tail, and legs. Every time the monster takes damage, it will cost Vivi 1 mana per damage to keep it bound.
⚔️
3B: I leap and use Iron Cross with a chain attached while hovering in the sky. Roll with advantage please. 3B: (D6)=3,3.
Cardinal: Ledia, you see 3B's Iron Cross coming down but it will just miss and scrap off the Scorpython. Hmm...
StarTree: Wood Pillars!
Cardinal: Wood Pillars spring forth from the tree stumps on both sides, pinning the Scorpython and pushing it sideway where the Iron Cross lands at a joint to its leg.
King Scorpython takes 3 dmg from the Iron Cross. Cardinal: Vivi?
I will hold on just a bit longer.
⚔️
P4: Assassinate. P4: (D6+x3)={2,1,1},{4,4,1}.
King Scorpython takes 4 damage from P4. Vivi: I release shadow bind.
3B: Create lightning rod. How do you plan to hold it up there? I don't know yet. 3B is going to go Back to the Future for us! XD 😆
Natalie: GM, do I have time to refocus my light spell to turn it into Sun Ray? Yes, barely.
Natalie: I use Sun Ray at where its tail connects to the body. Roll with advantage please. Natalie: (D6+)=6,2. The King Scorpython takes 2 damage. Cardinal: You see the monster adjusting its tail and rotating its legs to remove the chain attached to it.
Ledia: Anyone has an ability to tell how many hit points a monster has?
Vivi: I should be able to tell after shadow bind. Vivi, roll with advantage please. Vivi: (D6+)=4,6.
Cardinal: Vivi felt that the monster has 30 hit points.
🏹
Zoey: Barrage. I am aiming at the legs to tie them to the wood pillars. 5 with advantage. Zoey: (D6+ x5)={6,6,4,4,3},{6,6,6,4,4}
Cardinal: The barrage hit all five legs Zoey aimed for. As the vine arrows tighten, you hear popping sound as three of the joints broke.
The King Scorpython takes 3 damage. Cardinal: Everyone except Mikela roll 1 die please.
Mikela: Hey Hey Hey! Red said this is a good time for a CLIFF HANGER as the Hellapagos King Scorpython will choose a second lucky winner to eat mud! Will the party triumph? Or will we see our first TPK? Stay tune for the next episode on Magic Bakery Plays Hellapagos!!

😊
After practice, I can do lip trills without putting my fingers on my cheeks! Red: Congratulations! 🎂 Ledia: What do you mean? Evelyn: Like this: Br. B.. I lost it... 😖 Ledia: Hmm...? P4: She did it earlier. Brrrrrrrrrrr~~~ Evelyn: Kids can do it naturally... 😖 Ledia: Then can Red do it? Red: Of course I can! Pr. P.. Evelyn: It's not about age! It's about relaxation ... 😖 Red: Pr.. P.. P..!
Worried that he would forget the 4-digit passcode to a computer, a programmer wrote down a hint next to the computer. A year later, the programmer returned and sure enough he had forgotten the passcode. The hint was "English". What is the passcode?

Amelia: Is it formed by digits that look like the alphabets? Black: No.
Coming soon.

Backup Log

Blogger and Guild Spreadsheets are backed up to OneDrive. Blogger: Content, CSS, Theme. Guild Spreadsheets: Log, Script Maker, Inventory. James: @Ivy, Is the calendar ready if I want to add December 2021? Are you planning any big change to the calendar? Ivy: The next changes for the Calendar would be making the calendar itself automatically generated. This means we won't have to create a page for each month. But I don't have a plan to do that soon. I will make JQuery sort Div first. James: Great plan, Ivy! Then I will make sure that the monthly calendars I add are so unique that you give up trying to generate them automatically. Ivy: Thanks, Dad. Zoey: I can't tell if you two are being serious or sarcastic! XD 🤣

Getting Toys

Do we have a guild policy on getting toys? Red: It has to be cute. Casey: What about this? Red: It is cute except the crossbones. Ivy: We have lots of LEGOs already. I thought we were trying to get rid of them. Red: But pirates is kind of Casey's theme. Casey: To be precise, it is treasure hunting. Ivy: The problem with LEGOs is that once you get one, you would want to get more. Then you will need a place to put them since you won't be taking apart what you built. Casey: I can make space for it. Ivy: I oppose because it has nothing to do with the guild's goal. You are free to play and display it in your place. Casey: What if I build Magic Bakery? Then it will promote the guild by drawing LEGO fans attention. Red: I'm leaning for it because it is cute. Ivy: Do you mean you will get the pirate set and build a bakery from it? Or are you talking about a separate project to build a LEGO Magic Bakery in addition to displaying a pirate ship? Zoey: What if that ship is the Albatross? Ivy: The Albatross doesn't look like a pirate ship at all. It is not even the same color. The Albatross was white... Zoey: Couldn't we just make it different this time around? We can make it whatever we want. Red: I am still leaning toward a yes. Especially when they would build Magic Bakery. I want to see that. Casey: I don't see why we can't just build it together. Red: I am ready to approve that as a guild activity. Ivy: Couldn't you just have 3B draw it? Then we don't need a physical model. Casey: If you do that I can't really participate. Besides, 3B hasn't drawn anything for months. Ivy: If you build a LEGO Magic Bakery set, then she really won't be drawing anything. Casey: Why not? If anything it should make it easier to draw having a model to look at. Ivy: By then you would just take photographs, and the guild website will look like a LEGO fan site. Casey: If we take photos, we could just keep them in its own thread. I am not controlling what is shown in the calendar. Evelyn: Does this mean... each of us will have a LEGO person? Ivy: It won't look exactly like you. Evelyn: I'm curious... 😳 Red: This is Ivy as a Minifig. Evelyn: CUTE!! It looks like you! Ivy: I didn't ask for it. But more importantly, it can't depict each of us. So I am against using LEGO as our art medium. Evelyn: What about these other LEGO people? Are they... someone? Red: They were in another story and are townsfolks at Freedom Plaza. In fact 3B drew at least three of them. Evelyn: I wish that they would join our story.

King Scorpython
March 6, 2022 Sunday
Vacation Island

The Heroes were fighting the King Scorpython in heavy rain. Mikela had been KO'ed. Ledia, StarTree, and Natalie are almost out of mana. It is now the start of Round 3. Everyone except Mikela roll one die please.

Natalie: We got new dice! Then everyone can have their color. We lost yellow... 😅 That would be me. Cardinal: Result: Ledia: D20=10. StarTree: D20=16. 3B: D20=19. P4: D20=3. Vivi: D20=18. Zoey: D20=15. Natalie: D20=10. Evelyn: D20=13.
P4: May I dodge? I can hear things coming.
Cardinal: In the heavy rain, P4 suddenly hear something she had never heard before, a sound that seemed to come from all directions. Then it went dark for her. The others see that a giant snake head had appeared, having swallowed P4 whole.
P4 takes 1 damage. P4 is now KO'ed.
Ledia: With my sword still in the monster, I stun it with shock.
Cardinal: The shock going through the body didn't stun the snake head. It went for Ledia and bumped her off. Ledia crashes a distance from the King Scorpython. She is out of breath and out of mana.
Protect on Ledia has broken.
Natalie: Is the head attached or moving on its own?
Cardinal: As Natalie wondered about that, the head goes at her at an angle like a whip.
Natalie: I dodge and shoot it with water jet. Roll with advantage twice please. Natalie: (D20+)x2 = {16,19}, {4,1} Cardinal: (D20)=12
Cardinal: Natalie dodged the attack, but the water jet missed. The head then goes for Evelyn.
Evelyn: I cast Protect.
🏹
Zoey: I release Barrage at the head. I am aiming for the moment when the head hits Evelyn. Evelyn, roll with advantage. Zoey, barrage with advantage. Evelyn: D20+ = 15, 5. Zoey: D20+x5={5,5,11,20,9} {20,11,8,5,2}
Cardinal: The head hit Protect just in time for two of the arrows to land. The impact still sent Evelyn flying.
Evelyn takes 1 damage. King Scorpython takes 2 damage. Protect is now in effect for the party except Evelyn. Cardinal: The head is momentarily tied to the ground by vine arrows.
Vivi: Accel, Shadow Claws on the head. Once with advantage please Vivi: D20+={6,7}. Cardinal: D20=7.
King Scorpython takes 1 damage. It is no longer stunned. Cardinal: At this point, lightning hits the lightning rod. 3B, roll once please. 3B: D20=3.
Cardinal: The lightning passes through 3B down the chain... Cardinal: D20=19. ... To the body, but did not go further as most damage were dealt to 3B. 3B takes 4 lightning damage. King Scorpython takes 1 lightning damage. 3B is KO'ed. Cardinal: The King Scorpython is momentarily stunned as StarTree sees 3B falls from the sky.
3B: I'm sorry.
StarTree: StarTree doesn't know what to do!
Zoey: Just hit, it only has 3 hit points left.
StarTree: StarTree hits it with the axe. Roll twice please. StarTree: D20x2 = 10,18. StarTree is now recognized to have Melee Attack Rank B. King Scorpython takes 1 damage. It is no longer stunned.
Cardinal: The axe hit the King Scorpython and broke a pipe. High concentration poison gas leaked out and filled the area. Dealing 3 poison damage to all without poison resist, and 2 to those who do. At the same time, the head detaches itself and start to burrow into the ground.
Zoey: Erm.. I think I am KO'ed.
StarTree: StarTree will plug the leak!
Cardinal: StarTree plugs the leak. Everyone other than StarTree takes 1 poison damage and feel light headed.
Zoey is KO'ed. Ledia: I attack it. You are exhausted. You only have time to get up the monster to pull out your sword.
Vivi: Accel, Shadow Claw once then Shadow Bind. Roll once with advantage. Vivi: D20+=3,3. You missed. I know that.
Cardinal: The King Scorpython is stunned.
Natalie: I don't have any attack left that can do 2 damages in one hit.
Ledia: Use my sword. I pull it out and give it to Natalie.
Natalie: I take the sword and swiftly and carefully drive it down the head. Cardinal: D20=6. Cardinal: How do you want to do this?
⚔️
Natalie: After taking the sword, I scoop up and drive it into the part that tries to escape.

Cardinal: The sword drove deep into the King Scorpython. A low winding noise hums through its body as it collapses into the muddy ground. WIth the camouflage disabled, a hatch near its neck pops open and spills out P4 covered in synthetic mucus. I catch P4.
Cardinal: In the mud are Mikela, 3B, and Zoey.
Evelyn: I want to try Raise II.
Cardinal: Roll 3 dice as a skill check. If they all fail, you lose 1 mana and no one is raised. If you get two success, it works this time at Rank B. If you get three success, you get Rank B Raise II and Rank A Raise 1. Okay. Raise II is hard to level up so I need to try. Evelyn wants us to get KO'ed more often XD 🤣 That's not what I mean! 😖 I am just kidding. XD 🤣 Evelyn: Spirits of light, please revive our fallen friends so we may escape this island together.
Evelyn: D20x2={12,19,7}. Evelyn is now recognized for Raise 2 Rank B. Evelyn: I raise Mikela and 3B. Because... kids are easier to carry back... 😅
Mikela and 3B are revived at 1 hit point.
3B: Thank you.
🎤
Mikela: Congratulations! You beat the snake! Now it's time to gather supplies and to get off the island! I blow my Conch and sing Song of March to recharge mana. Roll 3 dice for skill test please. Mikela: D20x3={13, 5, 3}. Mikela is recognized for Song of March Rank B. The Heroes party other than Mikela recovers 1 mana each. Mikela: How many times can I sing and skill test? I would say once per session for skill test, and once per scene for singing. Then the effect of Song of March should be bigger. 1 mana is too little. I will consider upgrading it when your Song of March is Rank A.
Cardinal: The Heroes party recovers 1 mana from resting.
Evelyn: I revive Zoey and P4.
Zoey and P4 are revived to 1 hit point.
Natalie: So. I assume I would gather or would have gathered 6 water with my Flask?
Ledia: Is there anything I can loot from the snake?
Cardinal: You don't know what the snake might have. You could choose to salvage or gather after drinking coffee.
Zoey: According to Helen, we have almost taken everything useful from the salvage deck. Does the Snake have its own loot deck? Cardinal: You took a casual glance and notice nothing that would stand out to be useful for escaping the island. Then I guess I will just drink the Coffee and chop wood then...

Fishing
March 6, 2022 Sunday
Beach

After fighting and defeating the King Scorpython, the castaways gathered supplies for the day.

Cardinal: @Casey, draw for fishing result please. You have a fishing rod, so you may draw two balls from the bag.
Casey: Do we get to use Advantages?
Yes, but each time you use it you need a different reason. Hmm... I will just draw first and see. Casey: (Ball x2)=1,1. I use an advantage that I am patient. Casey: (Ball x2)=2,1. I am good at swimming. Casey: (Ball x2)=2,1. This is way harder than it looks...
V: May I also fish at the same time? Yes, and everyone else who plan to fish. Sasha, we fish together. Let's see how lucky we are. Sasha: (Ball x1)=2. I use my Lucky trait. Sasha: (Ball x1)=1. I guess 2 is not too bad.
Tanya: We should try to get a 3, within reason. Tanya: (Ball x1)=1. I use Insight for Casey. Oh, thanks. Casey: (Ball x2)=3,1. Hey, it is working!
LRRH: Do you want bait? Yes!
Casey: Can I use Bait and Insight at the same time and draw 3 balls to keep two?
I like that idea. And if the GM allows it, we should stack it even more so we draw all balls and choose two. Then I stack my patience and good at swimming. The fishing rod already lets you draw two balls. So with a stack of 4 advantages, you would be able to draw all balls. @GM? Who is the GM? I assume it is Sasha since this is not combat. I am okay with it because this feels more cooperative and less tedious. But, @Cardinal, could you GM the rest of the game? I am a player. It feels weird to be GM'ing at the same time. If you want me to GM, I will add details to the rule. That's fine.
Cardinal: With a stack of five advantages (including the fishing rod), roll 6 dice. As long as not all of them fail, you succeed and get 5 fish. Otherwise it is an epic failure. An epic failure would prevent you from fishing again today. I like it. Hold on. @Tanya, is this a good deal or not? If I do nothing, I get 4 fish. If I gamble, I either get 5 fish or none for today. If you gamble, your chance of getting no fish is only 1 in 64, that is about 1.5%. That's not exactly what I'm asking. Your answer would be the same even if I didn't already have 4 fishes. But the more fish I have, the more risky the deal is. What is that risk?
Ivy: That's cost-benefit analysis. Ivy: (Ball x1) = 3. Holy moly I need to go back to the lab. You kids can figure it out.
Ivy gets 3 fish. Ivy is now recognized to be Lucky Rank A.
Tanya: I see.
Sasha: The cost of gambling is 4 fish because that is what you are betting. The benefit is...98.5% to get 5 fish, which is 4.9. So you should still do it.
Tanya: Hold on. I think we should see V's result first, then start with the lowest risk gamble.
V: I fish.
V: (Ball x1) = 1.
Cardinal: By the way, I am allowing a free attempt without advantages just because it could save time. If the opportunity is unique I will tell you beforehand that you have only one chance and need to stack your advantages if you decide to do so. So Casey, Sasha/Tanya, and V, each of you have one chance to stack advantages and try again if you choose to do so.
V: Instead of "fishing", may I just use Ice Carousel and get 3 fish? Yes. V gets 3 fish with Ice Carousel.
Tanya: With this there is no reason to take more risk. We should now have 17 water and 17 food to leave. If the wood gathering team would return with 17 rafts. What if they don't? Then we leave Natalie, Red, and V behind. Red makes coffee brownies again and feed the group of three for the day and give each two actions. Natalie and V get their usual resources then all go finish their own rafts. There is no risk. I still want to see stacked advantages at least once before we leave. Now I have 2 fish. With a stack of 5 advantages, 98% to get 3. I get 2.94 at the cost of 2. It is a better deal than 4.9 at cost of 4.
@Cardinal, I want to be recognized for the skill Foresee. It allows me to preview the result of a die roll. But that takes the fun out of me. We are in the same fishing team. You and me. Well, then let's split up. You foresee your fishing and I just roll. You can't stop me from using foreseeing on your roll. I don't mind if you foresee my result. Just let me roll and you may look at it before I look at it. ... @Cardinal, since we rolled a 2, each of us have 1 fish. I want to bet my fish and roll again. Your gain will be tiny. If you get a 3 ball that counts at 1.5. I just want to roll more dice! I help you with insight. And I use Foresee on your roll. I give you bait. I give you fishing guidance. I'll help you freeze it. Plus my luck that is a stack of 5. @Cardinal, how do you want to do this?
Cardinal: First, Tanya rolls 3 dice for skill check. Tanya: (D20x3)={5,18,16}
Tanya is recognized to have the skill Foresee Rank B. Cardinal: Then Sasha rolls 6 dice for Tanya to see. That's just creepy since I have already decided to roll. Sasha: (D20x6)={7,7,2,1,1,1} Casey: HOLY MOLY! Sasha NEEDS stronger Lucky!
Sasha: Well. from your reaction it can only mean one thing. If Tanya tells me not to go forward I would listen.
Tanya: You should just keep what you have.
Sasha: Well. I am not a stubborn person. I got to roll and it was fun. I listen to Tanya and keep my fish. Let me see what I rolled.
It could be worse... Still, that's six tails in a row! and three 1's from D20! You were going to drown or something. @Tanya, what did you see? I don't want to imagine bad things happening to my friends. Cardinal gives Tanya Kudos. Sasha: Although I wouldn't mind if you do.
Casey: Now that we have foresee, can I see if I can get 5 fish? I don't have enough mana for that. V is level 11. Foresee costs me 1 mana per dice. I already used 7 mana. If I use insight on you, I can only see three of your dice. I only need 1 die to succeed though. Tanya: @Cardinal, Helen is only level 7. If we need to use abilities tonight, do we max out at 7 mana?
Cardinal: There is no rule on limiting mana now or tonight. You have 19 mana remaining.
Tanya: I see. Casey, do you want me to read your fortune?
I don't want to waste your mana. Could you read it one by one. I only need 1 to succeed. Tanya, your current Foresee is rank B. You have 50% chance of spending 1 mana without getting a reading. That'll be too tedious. When you decide to use Foresee, roll one die, that costs 1 mana. If it is low, Then the divination fails and you can't use foresee for the same person that day. If it is high, then you can see up to six dice for that person. Total mana cost is 6 at the maximum. I see. Then I'll see if I can tell Casey's fortune. Tanya: (D20)=18. I will keep rolling. Tanya: (D20...) = 3, 12.
Tanya: Casey, if we give you advantage, you will succeed. Then I do it.
Casey gets 5 fish. Casey: I still want to see the rest of my four dice... Casey: (D20 x6)={3,12,12,2,6,5} Scary.
Tanya: Let's return to camp and resolve today.


Final Puzzle
March 6, 2022 Sunday
Camp Site

The Castaway gathered at the camp site to tally their harvest.

Tanya: Food 18, water 21, rafts 14.3. Details: StarTree 8 wood with axe and bonus during combat; Ledia 6 wood after drinking coffee. James and Kisaragi 14 wood each with coffee brownies and 2 person saw. Patricia and Black 6 wood each. Details: Natalie 10 water with flask. Helen and Arcacia 3 water each. Details: Ivy 3 fish; V 3 fish, Casey 5 fish, Sasha and Tanya 1 fish each.
Sasha: We could almost all leave tonight.
Tanya: If we really want to, StarTree could just make 3 rafts right now since we could use as much mana as our level.
Sasha: But there is no challenge and no drama. We could have just left on Day 1.
Tanya: Evelyn, do you still prefer we all leave tonight, or is it okay to leave some behind to leave tomorrow? I have a plan for that.
Evelyn: I still prefer us leaving together, although I don't want to make it stressful for anyone. 😖
Black: Let's talk while we eat.
Helen: I bring out the fruit basket.
Casey: Thematically, do we really want to leave during heavy rain? It seems unsafe.
Evelyn: Wouldn't it be good if it stops raining when we leave? Cardinal: (D20)=13.
Cardinal: As Evelyn wondered when the rain would stop, the rain seemed to be getting softer.
Black: We are banking on heavy rain so the "flies" don't come out.
Evelyn: I wish that the flies do not come regardless. 😖 Evelyn, roll with advantage please. Evelyn: (D20+) = {7,18}
Cardinal: Soon after the castaway started eating, the rain subsided. The air was fresh, the sky was beautiful, and there was no sign that any insect was going to come. It seems completely safe if they want to leave tonight.
Mikela: But I don't want to just leave with rafts that StarTree summons from nowhere. That is just anti-climatic. How about we have a contest for the best idea to leave together tonight?
3B: Could we repair the boat? We don't have a relevant skill to repair fiberglass hull. If we tie rafts to it, it willl just drag the rafts down with it.
Zoey: I know it won't work but I can summon a giant toad. They can't swim in saltwater.
Black: If your ability is back, you could just teleport us back.
Mikela: Actually I would prefer that than to be on a raft for another day.
Sasha: Is that it? Are we sick of this game setting and ready to move on to another one?
Evelyn: I prefer games that we don't have to think about leaving someone behind... 😅
Sasha: In terms of game mechanics, do you feel that there is anything we can learn from this game?
Ivy: I do like how the constraints force us to make plans. If we had just more people from food or water gathering on wood gathering today, We would have enough rafts to leave, since we could argue that Red and Natalie could gather food and water even on their rafts, we really only need 15 water and 15 food at the time we leave. Helen, Arcacia, and I could have went to gather wood. Then we would have enough to leave together. We were adding too many rules to update the plan. But we knew Natalie and Red's abilities since Day 1. I am not forgiving myself for such blantant error.
James: Feeling that he hasn't been getting any attention as he deserves, James said, we have 14 out of 17 rafts. If I could drift on anyone of them, there is no way they can't carry us all if we just join some of them. Tanya: That depends on how StarTree had been building them. StarTree copied what James did on the first day! Wee~~~!
Ivy: This could work if on average everyone else weigh less than 80% of James' weight. From the look of it... This could be true...
Helen: Then when we join two rafts together, it could carry two adults and one kid. CUTE!!! If adults other than James takes 0.8 and kids take only 0.4 then we only need 13.8 rafts. 7 rafts for 21 people. It is perfect.
Mikela: It looks like we have a WINNER!
James: If you let James play, James will always save the day. We drift free tonight!
James is recognized as Rank S Free'ku Master. Mikela: And so the castaway formed three-people rafts and drift to safety! The End!

Tanya: Are we not actually picking who to drift with? Who do you want to drift with, Tanya? Arcacia. And? Patricia. Raft #1 is ready! If it is not random, can I take Red and V? Free food and free ice cream! Raft #2 is ready! Casey: Then I pick James and Ivy. To save some trouble. Raft #3 is ready! Then I pick Mikela and StarTree! Wee~~! Raft #4 is ready! Kisa. Raft #5 is ready! 3B and Black. Raft #6 is ready! Ledia and Helen 😃 Raft #7 is ready!
Sasha: That's all folks. That's for playing! Our next game will be Wonder Woman Challenge of the Amazons!

March Goal
Tidying Showcase

My goal for Treasure this month is to tidy the showcase area. Casey: To do so, I'm going to removing everything and start over. Things that don't fit will be kept in boxes or be donated. Evelyn: Are we talking about just the showcases? Or everywhere...? Casey: I was planning to tidy just the showcases. Why? Evelyn: KonMari said it is more efficient if we tidy by item type instead of by area... Otherwise, we might discover more things of the same type to tidy and we won't have a place for them...😅 Casey: I think we are in Rule 3: Finish Discarding First. I'm going to put everything in the showcases in boxes. Then we sort out what we want to keep and return to the showcase. Casey: When the showcases are empty, we might also decide a new place for them. Evelyn: Okay. Sasha: I think we should move the showcases because they aren't getting proper lighting. You can't really see what they have when you pass by them. Tanya: I like the way it is, out of sight and unnoticeable. It is too colorful and distracting otherwise.
Sasha: I want to see them when we play games. Sasha: If Tanya doesn't want to see them, she can sit with her back to them. Tanya: I'm fine with that. Evelyn: It seems we will make many changes. Perhaps more than we can handle...? 😅 Casey: Putting things in boxes and putting away those we don't need is my goal. We can decide the rearrangement when things become easy to move. Tanya: I suggest first putting everything on the table in boxes. I think we need to move the table. Evelyn: There are so many cute things on the table... 😅 Tanya: They will come back. But perhaps not on the table.

This weekend we ended up tidying almost everything in the game room except the display area...😅 We will continue next week after donating all the things we don't need. Somehow we made a lot of room. I don't think it was just because we put stuff away... How did we end up having so much room? We put away almost all of the picture frames. We filled up some boxes that were not full. I think we stacked things higher along the walls. I like how we have a complete garbage sorting in the game room: paper, compost, recyclable and trash. I like how the monitor is not facing a wall. I like the big space where we can sit on cushions. I can't tell whether I like this until we play games here. We didn't start a game... 😖 We didn't do anything except tidying the room. I think we are behind in Cardinal Quest.
Casey: Who will play the game? It is a 2 to 5 player cooperative game. I think we can all play. We could just make it a 6 player game. Who plays Ares? No one needs to play Ares. His actions are decided. Are we playing as ourselves or as the DC characters? That's up to you. The point of the game is to have fun and see what we can use in our game. But I heard this game is a strategy game. We might have abilities that would break the game. If you want to play yourself, please start with abilities in the game.

Cardinal Quest
March 15, 2022 Tuesday
Deer Crossing

So. How do we do Cardinal Quest nowadays? We are obviously doing Cardinal Quest almost every day, but there is no story and the day counter for Cardinal Quest doesn't reset. @StarTree, what is going on?

StarTree: The typos you fixed for previous story will count as an update! You should see the tracker reset tomorrow! That feels like a cheap shot though.
Tanya: We are at Wisp Circle. Who wants to help upgrade the leyline? It is only barely holding together. I would help but I don't know how. 😖
Tanya: The leyline node at Wisp Circle is that it needs to switch depending mana type. Right now, we need the wisps that enter to cast a spell to do the switching before they can cast a spell in their language. What we really want is for the crystal aura to automatically decipher the language as they cast the spell.
Tanya: Previously, we have already decided 9 intonations the aura would check to tell what leyline to open. These 9 intonations together will control five mana gates. Let's start with the two easiest two intonations that controls the Arcacian gate.
Evelyn: Okay. So the 7th intonation would start the Arcacian aura, and the 8th intonation will stop it. But how do we make the crystal do it? By the way, I'm here. This seems like an interesting topic.
Tanya: Let's find an example where the Crystal does something similar.
Zoey: I'll check to see if the Arcacian gate already checks for intonation.
Zoey: I found something... I found a map of other intonations being used by the crystal, but not the ones we want. That's expected because... that's why we need to add them.
Zoey: @GM, do I get recognized for something? I think I found a clue. I think you would already have high tracking skills. What do you want to be recognized for? How about "intuition" as applied to tracking? If there is no clue, I would tend to pick the right path where I would find the next clue.
Zoey receives Zoey is recognized to have Intuition Rank A.
Ledia: I also want to get some skills, but... I'm not really following what I need to do.
Zoey: Let's make a step by step guide on how we do this. Where should we put that guide?
Tanya: Let's add it to the biggest field book. Then we don't need to know which book to check. Since there is only one book.
Evelyn: I like that idea 😃
Zoey has left bread crumbs. Zoey: May I be recognized for another skill Bread Crumb? This allows others to follow my trail as I pursue things.
Zoey is recognized to have Bread Crumb Rank S. Zoey: Sweet.
LRRH: It looks like someone gets it!
Little Red Riding Hood gives Kudos to Zoey for having bakery-themed skill! Zoey: XD 🤣
Ledia: Thanks to Zoey's bread crumbs, I found something I can do. But it is late. Could we continue tomorrow?
Tanya: Yes, let's do that. This is not entirely urgent. We could even do it in the weekend.
Evelyn: I like this pace 😃.
Sasha: Just for my understanding. If you get to choose, would you rather play Adventure Begin, Wonder Woman, or Cardinal Quest this coming weekend? Cardinal Quest. Cardinal Quest 😃 Cardinal Quest 😆 Care to tell why? Cardinal Quest gives way more EXP. That is, if you leave me enough bread crumbs so I could get to where I could do something. We are actually helping the Wisps and that is important to me. We are helping people and having fun at the same time. We played Adventure Begin already, and I'm not interested in a "strategy game" as you said for Wonder Woman. 🤣
Sasha: Okay. Let's do Cardinal Quest this weekend first. @StarTree, could you set the schedule?
StarTree: It's done!

Relationship History
March 17, 2022 Thursday
Magic Bakery

For online dating, if someone says they are looking for a serious relationship which means "never married",
those who have married or divorced should know that they are disqualified, right?
Tanya: How is it phrased? "In a partner, I'm looking for...: Serious relationship. (Never married, no kids)" I agree that those who are married are disqualified. I think you shouldn't give up so easily... 😅 Why don't you tell them and let them consider anyway?
Evelyn casts Wish: "I wish things will work out." Evelyn receives Black: Then what should I reply? They said they want to start with a simple intro with 3 things the other should know about them. The first thing they list is "Never married, no kids." If you follow their protocol, then you would reply with 3 things they should know about you. If I answer according to their priority, I would first say I was married and had no kid. But that answer would be misleading because the situation was complicated... 😖 But that is why he would be disqualified. They are specifically looking for people with simple history. Black does not qualify. So just let them look for someone else. Black deserves a second chance. 😢 You can't force or trick people to give you a second chance. That is not Arcacian.
Tanya receives
LRRH: But the reply can't be cold. That is not Magic Bakery-ish. Not Pan-arcadian.
LRRH receives Black: Is this okay: "1. Married for 8 months five years ago. No kids. Still a kid. Have tenants. 🐣 I think this is a good response. 🙂
Ledia: Tanya, if Black gives this response, how likely will he get a reply? Low. They seem to be in a hurry. So they might not reply. @Cardinal, I call that they will reply at least once. If they do, can I level up my Oracle skill? I'd allow that. Yes! 😅
StarTree: Sorry to interrupt! Does this post qualifies as a Cardinal Quest post? StarTree is confused! Cardinal Quest is not just about gamifying "work", but "life" itself. So, yes, this is part of Cardinal Quest. Then should I change point 3 to "Gamify work for EXP 40 hours weekly. Only eats lunch. Treasure hunting weekly. 👑" It sounds more fun 😊
Zoey: Why don't you run it through grammarly? Actually, I'd just run it for you... ✌️ Optimistic 5, 😊 Friendly 4, 🤝 Confident 3. Grammarly approved! 😊
Black: Then I am sending it. Thanks, all.
Black gives kudos to Cardinal, Evelyn, Ledia, LRRH, StarTree, Tanya, Zoey for advices and support.

Minifigures
March 18, 2022 Friday
Magic Bakery

What do we feel like doing this weekend?
We planned for Cardinal Quest this weekend, but I think we have caught up somewhat.
Casey: The pirate ship arrived. Who wants to build "The Albatross"? What is it? It is a LEGO pirate ship. But I think our plan is to make it into the Albatross.
Ledia: Isn't the Albatross supposed to be really different? If it is cute then it is fine.
Black: Do we take pictures of us building it? Yea. Why not. If you want to be in the picture, then make yourself a minifigure. I don't think there are enough kid faces... 😖 It doesn't have to look like you. It can be anything. Okay 😅
LRRH: To make your minifigure, you may use these parts over here, but not those. Those already belong to someone. Okay 😊
Evelyn: It is harder than it seems... 😖 Just don't be too picky. I made myself, see? I want a pirate hat. You'll get one when we open the set. Actually... There is a whole other box of minifigure parts to choose from... Here. OMG, I'm gonna keep making! XD 🤣
StarTree: StarTree made herself! Wee~~ This is me then 😊 I'm going full ranger XD 🤣 P4 made one. Cute!! And this is me. No pirate hat? It looks weird without hair. But this one looks really like you.😊 Sasha's hat XD 🤣 I made Queen Vivi also.

🥁 PLAN: Cardinal Quest Wisp Circle

202203191203|Team Building
March 19, 2022 Saturday
Harbor

Welcome to our first team BUILDING event! My plan is to build the ship according to the instruction, and make changes as we go to make the ship the Albatross.
Tanya wants to be the one taking pictures. The old camera is fogged up. Is it reparable? It has moisture in between the lenses. Why don't we just use the phone to take pictures? I think it can be fixed but it takes times to dry it. Let's continue with the phone. Ok.

Casey: P4, do you want to open the box? Okay 💟 P4 opens the box.

Cute!! 😊
Casey: The first bag are the people. Do we make those people alive?

What if they don't want their ship altered? 😅 I wish that they would let us. @Cardinal. Evelyn, roll with advantage please. Sasha turned this into an RPG XD 🤣 Evelyn: (D20+)={20,2} 😃 Natural 20 XD Evelyn wakes up the pirate crew, the bird and the shark.
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEisJi0aaLZixUZoR6Q9mgm5k-sR2FJeipPTvROniIKblpthcKohO74QNrWF_o6_Xc6O3AT21poGpXwqSfDzq4K_HrMjlJpwMJ5UucccMqf3XOVOzSe_5-Hln4UgosQwu_-MXYWR5F_ABui3XCCHsZQUF225YxRRZ95OhlB8-gYr7xj7ZE6wBE_bUVWrvg"}
Sasha: (Captain): Rumor has it that you all plan to take our ship. That can't be right. You'll need to give us something in return. What would you like? (Captain): How about... your LIFE? 😅
Zoey: Do we need to "take" their ship? I thought we were just changing it. (Captain): If you change it, how is it still mine? You'll still be the captain? (Captain): But I'll be forced to do your missions. If that's not slavery I don't know what is. Sasha, why are you making this difficult? Evelyn rolled a natural 20. Cardinal, ARP. There is no contradiction yet.
Evelyn: We are from the guild Magic Bakery and we are trying to build a peacemaking ship. I hope that you would join us. We would go on mission together, it would be fun and meaningful! 😃 (Captain): How is a toy ship going to make peace? I don't fully know yet, but we can find out together... 😅 (Captain): This is too vague. I need a better reason.
Casey: There are many LEGO fans out there. If we use LEGO to help talk about peace, then hopefully we will get a bigger audience, which will help us spread peaceful ideas. (Captain): That's more like it. I shall appoint you to be our Navigator!
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEid-YsGDnv2GliMW76od_xv3SfK301RsBJPuYSlunYsK5wdU5Re9n8kVky_t_sJaEXfYY3GOvtAyQ4QxbXXJluHriqMAo7qct9AJeLltMPlyniPQebE66I9-YxV1m2e63hkpvCABRqTckUMG-mwfvtjIkxt1v3emhcdUtnfBzBLhe2Nvu5tt9NMPgm2qA"}
Thank you! (Captain): Now let's get to building! To peace we build! 😊🙏
Casey is now recognized as a Navigator.
LRRH: Look, P4 made the shark happy!

CUTE!!! 😍 That IS the instruction. Evelyn gives Kudos to LEGO for the happy shark.

The Ship
March 19, 2022 Saturday

And so, we continued building the ship.

Evelyn: I wish these were beds. They aren't. But it would be fun if they were. It is a cozy space here. You'd still need to place the cannons somewhere. Maybe... not on a peacemaker ship? 😅 Like, on the shark? That will totally make it look like a warplane. At least that would be separate. But it shouldn't be on animals. They don't choose to fight for people. Agreed. Let's continue and get back to this question later.
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbuVOhvHntB2EH5NChfWQU9ovHl3MaLDFHjOVImPkuZtv3GGdbluhRmznmMxMFsRVfsXk05EusOSPctXmRgZtnlbhp8Jb_QtJPwcaYM41yYGbH4wv9VKAgvqrHRTy6iBNqB3nzgkMribO32eXFhpqsGpKUnAI-KrpRZLKAdZtJpWX48CXxveLmkUbjwQ"}
Zoey: This hull is so strong, I don't think I would enjoy taking it apart to make changes. Don't worry. There's nothing too hard to do.
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjpZLdxcS0VU5pqlXREEcJHDcKgurTrhFBJClgySecQjD62q7X26aBQmZL63-GPahqgxfQOXgzwXO3qftusdlUy2hc3i4IXUZxcExovIlaPxCATwINmlx0qoUTIQ0HeHx4GfSkn54p0JYXuZScqoWU6o5hexhddINyD7q2WgoXmYi6_bDRzZ1C8QLIXGQ"}
Evelyn: Could we change this mermaid in front? It is a little... scary... 😅 (Captain): Why? It is a good luck charm. I know... but... still... 😅
LRRH: How about replacing it with a gold cap?
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjJFX5VNoXdjUDDm8-_X6ccMWVrNcpw7SpgRS-Wha2J6dv0pN5c2Ku9ZG-WJdLLdikjAo6LxRjquyDTU6Qsz8_otRzIMffM1E-CqufRiOIvGi80S5LaYduR4cD9_84V61cSxcFXy6K9mvbFnzapm2Ec-bI56TlyJDUUA5jm9E-aRXqXkL1wGigp95Jcqg"}
Thank you! 🙂

Casey: For the sails, what do you think about this design?
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjLjHNF1AoP0nra_MllT4Xo0vrZT3zvPvYXWUix1OUD8IeiOThN0NStiJAXFMhfupAmwKInVE1baHLKwZX1gsXd2Q62EOvg3kFLkb7k5XfDZikcPgOjnDpwxmGZ79JPLrkhs4YZN2yK3IzZRWOroONQ_zt2InvhFReV2Lp_ixWqWi1JS4mBJyEJWQBg8g"}
It looks great! 😃 White, Gold and Teal were Albatross colors. We don't have many teal I think it will look really good in White, Gold and Blue. I'm going to go through our bricks to see how much we have to change it. It will take some time.

Photos are Up
March 20, 2022 Sunday
Magic Bakery

The photos from yesterday are up. Thanks StarTree for formatting.
CUTE!! 😍 If you want to actually share that, you need a link to the post. @StarTree, could you make a viewer that can view a specific post? Is Viewer a Page by itself? Yes. Does this work? 202203191203|Link It is marginally acceptable...
Ivy: Maybe we should post those long posts as Blogger posts. And use blogger labels. Then no more JQuery? Blogger posts are bulky. I was thinking that the calendar can JQuery text stored in individual posts. But this means that every time someone makes an individual post, StarTree would have to add a link to "Archive" so it can be JQueried.
Tanya: How about we keep writing everything in Archive first. If we really need something to be its own post, then we split it to its own post and link to it. If we are doing that, could we remove the "Share" icon? Agreed. It's done! Nice. Vivi thanks StarTree for making changes.

Intermittent Fasting
March 21, 2022 Monday
Magic Bakery


I am marking March 9th as the date to be the start of our intermittent fasting trial.
Really? It took you two weeks to start after watching the video? Frankly I don't remember when we started. That was the day Red decided I could get Guild Credit for tracking it. I thought fasting is only for adults. I didn't say I am doing it. It is just the day I start getting credits for tracking. For those who wants to join, I'll keep track of some health stats and investigate whether you are becoming more or less healthy.
Ledia: Do we also get credits for trying? No. Why not? We are helping you as guinea pigs. No you are not. I'm curious, but the data I get from you is not applicable to someone else. You are helping yourself, and I'm helping you figure out whether you are healthier. But normally Paladins get credits for training and exercise. This is not a paladin program. I'm just offering a service. You are welcome to join for free. There is no pressure one way or another. You don't get points for joining and you don't get points deducted for not joining.
Tanya: People don't normally get points for just staying healthy. You only get credits for bringing new healthy ideas or help other be healthy. If you join, even if you don't get credits for joining, you can get credits for sharing new ideas. That is true. Although I don't want people to join hoping to find new ideas every day for credits... and, you don't need to join to get credits for new ideas.
Vivi: What is the "program"? I don't think you described it.
Ivy: I'm sorry. The program is you eat just once a day. Ivy: Since many food takes time to digest, we are doing the meal at lunch. You may eat more than your previous lunch when you had more than one meal per day. In other words, this is not "only eat lunch", but "eating only during lunch". Eat for 1 hour and fast for 23 hours. And what is the purpose? The alleged benefit is that having a short eating time activates reparative pathways and your body will adapt to make itself stronger and healthier. Whereas if you just eat around the clock, the body won't have time to clean up and repair itself. The unrepaired damages manifest as aging. Isn't sleeping supposed to be the time the body repairs itself? This program doesn't change your sleep pattern. But while you are awake, you are to eat just one meal. The question is whether this change in eating habit would improve health. If you want to try tweaking your sleep pattern and see if you are healthy with more or less sleep, you are welcome to try.

Who do you think is the most suitable person as "Arcacian Ambassador"?

Tanya: I think it is Red. She does the most talking outside the guild. She is the one actually trying to spread it, even though it is ineffective. "Even though it is ineffective" XD. I shouldn't laugh but it is funny. How can Red do better? I don't think we should answer that question unless Red is the one asking. You could instead ask each of us for ideas to be more efficient than she is. Then I ask that.
Tanya: For me, to be more effective I need the Albatross up and running. The Albatross will be the store of relevant information so I could link to them in online discussions. For the past few months we have been concentrating on Cardinal Quest because it was, and still is pressing. We should get a better balance to work on the Albatross.
Zoey: By Albatross do you mean the Seed of Peace website? Yes. Is there something wrong with it? It is a little too white. It hurts my eyes. ... It has been so long I don't remember what I can do with it XD 😅
Evelyn: I don't think it is that bad, we just need to keep adding content to it. 🙂 I like all the flowers there. 😊
LRRH: When I go to Twitter, I bookmark things that we could discuss. Could we use Seed of Peace to post our discussion results? That was the intended usage. I thought you want to detach the guild from Albatross. You can still detach the guild from the result. But the post would have a link to Red's Twitter. Not necessarily. You could just link to the news article or the original poster whom you are commenting on. Ok.
Ivy: How about we try one of the bookmarked topics? Ok.

LRRH: Today I talked about objective vs universal morality, and veganism Objective and universal morality would be a definition post. Veganism would be a concept post. Let's add a morality post. But I am out of mana. I will add it. By the way, I changed the background to pink. It is better. I like the new background. 😊 Could you also add the calendar back? Please be patient, I am trying to figure out where things are.
Zoey: Need to find an image for morality XD
Zoey: Okay. It is added: Morality. It is pretty! 😊 May I tweet this? I think that is the intended use. Anyone can tweet this. The image doesn't show. Um.... XD 😅
Ivy: It's called Twitter Card. Here Ooo 😲 It looks super cute! 🍰 Yes it does. Tanya gives kudos to Zoey and Ivy for building the Albatross.

March 24, 2022 Thursday

Congratulations! To Ledia who now has Sharingan!

Helpful little background: Last Thursday, Ledia predicted that Black's answer would get a reply despite Tanya said that the chance was low. For the correct prediction, Ledia has earned "Oracle Credit"!
Zoey: Congratulations!
Ledia: I need time to consider whether I want to call it Sharingan or make up something more original. Ledia is now recognized to have Combat Insight Rank A. Rank A, that's generous.
Cardinal: You may change the name and define the specific rules later. The description says "Sharingan" XD 🤣
Evelyn: I hope that the response was positive...? 😅
Black: She thanked me for the intro and asked about how introverted I am out of curiosity. Evelyn thanks Black for sharing. I am going to say I am the most introverted person I know. Is that true though? I can easily think of someone who is even more introverted. They might be so introverted that you forgot about them.
Tanya: Three B. I miss her. 😥 She is so introverted that she feels she is wasting other people's time when she shows up.
Casey: Could we get a blue LEGO hair piece so we could invite her to build her LEGO minifig? Actually I was thinking maybe she should change her hair color. Blue is a well known curse in manga and anime character design. 😅 I wish that 3B would play with us as we would help her in what she needs. 3B is not an NPC. It is up to her. There is no dice roll. Evelyn wishes for 3B's companionship.
Candy Power

Miles from the nearest repair shop, a driver had a problem with his car in a remote area. He stopped at a little candy store where his problem was quickly solved. What was the problem? 44: Is it a toy car? Mikela: It is a real car! | Robert: There are so many possibilities! Did he just call for help? Mikela: Nope. The problem is fixed there! | Mikela: It is a real car! | Evelyn: Did he just run out of gas, and candy store has fuel to spare? Mikela: Nope. The store being a candy store is relevant. | Zoey: I think it sounds very suspicious that there is a candy store in a remote area. Casey: I think it just means a populated area without an auto shop. I HOPE that the answer is informative, such as certain type of auto problem can actually be fixed by candies... Casey: Is there a small leak and he just needed some chewing gum or something? Mikela: Congratulations! You are correct! He used it to plug a leaking roof in heavy rain! Casey: This is a little too easy but I'll take the win.🤷 Zoey: One more please! XD

202203242144|Life Saving Speech
March 24, 2022 Thursday
Puzzle Time


A politician wrote a speech that saved his life without actually giving the speech. What happened?

Evelyn: Is he a political prisoner, so he wrote a false speech to condemn his oppositions? 😖 The politician was not a prisoner and wrote what he wanted to say! Tanya: Did he spend a long time writing it, so he missed some accident that could have killed him? The speech was long, and that was relevant. But he did not miss the event that would have killed him. Ledia: Was he being attacked so he threw the speech at the attack and got away? That is very close! Yes there was an attacker, but the speech still in his pocket. I see. P4: Was he getting bitten by a venomous snake and the speech blocked the bite? That is so very close! I'd consider P4 the winner! The attacker was a person, and... (Don't click if you want to keep guessing) The politician was Theodore Roosevelt, whose long speech helped to stop a bullet! Congratulations! Fact check... [Wiki]. Seems legit 👍 This is an interesting puzzle. 😊 That's all for now! Thanks for playing!

March 25, 2022 Friday
Magic Bakery


Magic Bakery is now Level 100! Congratulations!


StarTree: And March is almost over. What changes do you want to see next month?
Evelyn: I think we reached this milestone at a good time. 😊
Tanya: What do we want to do this weekend?
V: I want to record the music of the month. Which is...? @StarTree, which song did we play the most? In March record, North Shore and Fort Arsenal are tied for having played 13 days during quest time! I thought they were both played EVERY DAY. I guess there were times when we were too busy to keep track. 😅
Sasha: If we have to pick one I would pick Fort Arsenal. I can hear it playing in my head right now XD 🤣
Ledia: I would say that is THE quest song. I mean the upbeat version, not the mellow version. Yep. We are on the same page. And when things get tough it is that Vivi battle song. North Shore is the resting song.
Zoey: Actually I don't remember what North Shore is XD. I remember it was good though. If it is hard to remember maybe we should record it first.
Evelyn: This is North Shore: d.mrm.d...fmfdr.d.mrm.d...r.d.t. ~~ The Arcacian Force is strong with this one. It is wave after wave of ASMR. The Fort Arsenal song doesn't do this. Actually I don't know of any song that would do this. Ledia receives
V: Can we say the Vivi song was January song of the month, Fort Arsenal was February, and North Shore is March? It does feel that way. Let's record that this weekend. We should probably give it a better title.

202203271027|JQuery for Skills
March 27, 2022 Sunday
Adventurers' Hall

I think we can use JQuery to implement the Skill list, so that when you select a person, it will list all the skills for that person.
This thread is for discussing how to do it and what it should show. The main concept is that there will be a hidden Blogger Page that lists the definitions of all Skills. Each skill can be tagged by its associated Archetype, and a list of those who have that skill.
Ledia: I think we also need the Roster back. The Roster can be another hidden page that lists all members. I don't think what would be "Hidden". It would be a visible page. It should be displayed on the page bar. I think you are right. At the Roster, you could have a button that lists all character that are recognized for different archetype or RPG class: Tank, DPS, Support, etc.. I like that idea. Let's start with the Profile/Roster first. This would mean moving the Profile section from Deer Crossing post to a page. I was imagining a more elaborated character profile page, similar to what we had in Chapter 12. I see. The levels at the Deer Crossing post are all old! I'm level 23 but it still says I'm level 17! XD 🤣 The content should be automatic or robo-made. For content that is robo-made and needs frequent update, it is easier if the whole content can be updated.
Ledia: What is the first step? Create a hidden character data page with names and level.
StarTree: I updated Roster page to have *something*! @StarTree, could you add Name and Level as attribute and value for each character? It's done!
Ivy: Since data stored in div attributes are not displayed, next we need JS script to display them when the user clicks on a button. Who wants to take charge of making the profile page? I have some other things to do. I'd do that, with StarTree. StarTree is hired! Wee!~~ Ivy thanks Ledia and StarTree in advance.
Ledia: @StarTree, if I understand correctly, we need a JS function that composes the content for the given Div. Could you make that? Does the function takes the character name as input, and display the content in the next div? I think we need a specified div name because the character names would be listed on a separate menu bar. Understood!
StarTree: Roster page is now online! 📣

202203271408|Roster is UP
March 27, 2022 Sunday
Adventurers' Hall

Roster page is now online! What would you like to see there?

Ledia: Could we get a personal section where we could just write whatever? I mean a section that is not robo made. What do you want to call that section? "Custom profile"? There is now a custom profile section for Ledia! Awesome!
Sasha: I don't feel like filling up my profile again... I think you could get credit for importing anyone's profile from the old slides. Then someone else do it for me please.
Vivi: The roster needs URL enabled per member. But I can wait until there is actual content. Who is in charge of the Roster, so I could log the bug? I think this falls under Makeover. Although I think StarTree will end out fixing it.
Evelyn: What can we do about Skill? I think Ivy is too busy to make updates. 😅 What can we do to lower the lag counter for Chapter 20? Most recently Ivy wanted to list signs of good health that one can check by themselves! I like that idea! It will be useful. Where should we put it? I think it should be a page if it is a summary of everything on that topic. I feel the pendulum is just swinging back and forth on whether the content should be in a page or in a post. Our chapter posts should really be a page then? Since they are summaries. We use posts because we were using Blogger Labels. Pages do not have labels. On the other hand, the advantage of pages is that they could be hidden from the user because there is no way to browse to a page without listing it on the page list. Then shouldn't the sign of health content be on a Blogger Post? The Page List right now only has content specific to the guild: The Calendar and the Roster. Everything else are in posts. I don't think self-health check should be among the page list. Especially when we don't create its content. Then let's make a post. It is easy to change. Then you don't have a compelling reason to use a Page? Yes I do. I think the URL of posts are ugly. But that is subjective. If we ever want to send someone else our list of healthy topics, I would prefer to send a link that is Page. I don't foresee people would need to click on a label to navigate to related topics because we have collapsible Div. That whole Page could be its self-contained health check module. I don't think people care about the URL. But it does look uglier now you mentioned it... How do we browse to it if it is a page? We could add a link to it at Adventurers' Hall or JQuery it from there. I'm fine with it being a page. Let's work on the content and help Ivy! 😊
Sasha: Could we call the page Pixie? Since the content will be similar to what Cardinal do for PHC-Player Health Check. I'm for it! XD 🤣 It does sound more fun, and I think it ties better to the mission of the Adventurers' Hall. Fun is good. 😊 As long as you don't fantasize the content. The content should not need further translation.
Zoey: How do we judge whether the YouTube content is legit? How about we add additional references as we learn more? I think as we collect more links, we can find better information and keep the better one. 👍

202203271800|Dec 2021 Calendar
March 27, 2022 Sunday
Magic Bakery

It seems that we have a chance of updating all Tier 2 quests today to make them weekly again. So I'm going to add the December Calendar. It is James' goal of this month.

James: All right! Let's do it!
Ledia: This feels like the original daily quest when you start caring about the lag counter. I hope I'm not taking us a step back... 😖 I don't mean that at all. I just mean the nostalgia. If you like nostalgia, it is only going to get better. Since, after adding the calendar, of course we would add the content back. 👍 Ledia joins Evelyn's Party. James joins Evelyn's Party.
😊
Evelyn: We are questing!
James: Having been questing at Deer Crossing, James returned to Freedom Plaza to tidy up the town record. To help people see the history of the town, he decided that the old calendars need to be upgraded to the the new format. Blogger already has a 2021 December calendar post. So I am going to make a copy to archive the old format content, so that everyone in the world may see how the calendar used to look. James created the new blank 2021 December calendar.
James: Now we can start putting the contents back!
Zoey: For a moment I thought you guys are done already! XD 🤣 Of course not. You wouldn't think that it was just about the 'calendar' itself without the content, right? Actually that was what I thought we could do as the minium. 31 days to go, baby! Do we get guild credit per day? Sure! Yes! Who's first? I'll take point. Starting with December 31st, 2021. Ledia is now recognized as an Initiate of the Sealing Team. Ledia receives Arcacia thanks Ledia for diving.
Zoey: Secret achievement! XD 🤣
🏅
Ledia: Ledia dives back in time to December 31st. It had everything: Tier list, scoreboard, discussions and story. The person diving first will have to make the way. Okay. One down, plus some. How is it looking? Could you also get the Deer Crossing post? Jumping to Deer Crossing page to view the post is annoying. I won't consider Dec 31 done unless that link is also gone. I don't know how Cardinal wants to change its page when some of the story posts are moved. Leave them there and make a copy for the Calendar. When every story post has a copy he could just delete the original. Good plan.
Ledia: So I did two and bit more already. Can I get recognized to have surgical strike? Ledia is now recognized to have Surgical Strike Rank A. Ledia thanks Cardinal.
Evelyn: I'll start on Dec 12 and work toward you. 🙂 👍 Evelyn is now recognized as an Initiate of the Sealing Team.
Ledia: I am OOM. This quest is very hard. I don't think we can finish it this month. 😅 I think we did enough for @Freedom. Should we do something for @Treasure? Okay. 😊
StarTree: Casey wants a query of all LEGO posts at Treasure! It is a good idea! I'll add it. 😊

202203282139|Daily Quest
March 28, 2022 Monday 9:39 PM
Magic Bakery

Spring has come but our quest at Deer Crossing has not finished. Evelyn hopes to bring it to a good end with daily care.

Evelyn: A few days ago, we started putting effort in reducing the task counts from field log. Right now we only have two categories to reduce to keep the backlog from increasing. One left now. Thank you! 💟 Now both are done. Thank you so much!
🕰️ [10:10 PM] 🕰️
Black: This attempt is just going to get harder because the tasks that remain are the difficult ones. If we stick to not doing anything mentally intensive after 10 PM, we won't be able to do anything once we leave the quest area. 😖 Do you mean we should leave later? That could be convenient for those who are doing intermittent fasting and not having dinner anyway. That sounds way too stressful. Then what about starting earlier? There are tasks we could do before going to the quest area, and we won't have to worry about fighting adds. I like that idea.😊 How early can you start though? It would only be one or two hours at most. It would help some, I think. We could at least plan and get a better sense of what needs to be done each day. I am okay with morning meeting before going to quest area. If we do that it would be pretty much just Evelyn, StarTree and me at the meeting. No one else is going to get up so early. Then please pave the way for us XD 😆 I don't mind starting first. It would be quiet and cozy. Let's try it tomorrow.

202203282306|Daily Routine
March 28, 2022 Monday 11:06 PM
Magic Bakery

I want to have a sidebar item showing our daily routine. Please tell us about yours and whether you want company in your routine.

LRRH: The morning is a good time to finish many small tasks. I check the news in the morning along with Natalie, Ledia and V.
Ledia: For checking the news I use Bing because it has a reward. Usually clicking on each headline is enough to max out the mobile phone quota. The computer quota can be maxed out easily by clicking on a special link where it just cycles to the next place to visit. That link seems special. If I just search for a place, it doesn't give me that convenient list where I could just keep clicking at the same point but have Bing search each location one by one. Interesting. I thought that is the default behavior of Bing. I shouldn't lose that link then.
Evelyn: I want to add the morning quest meeting, if we can stick to it.
Ledia: I have a second routine in the morning, which is the paladin morning exercise. I think that is about all the routines in the morning.
StarTree: StarTree starts the quest with checking the schedule, and tallying the scores at night!
Ledia: Natalie has another exercise routine in the evening.
P4: V trains at the waterfall in the evening.
P4: I collect health data at night.
Ivy: Do you count lunchtime as a routine for those who only eat lunch?
Sasha: Could we have a nap routine? You could start one. Then there is an after lunch nap routine if you want to join it.
LRRH: I think that is about everything. @StarTree, could you make the sidebar?
StarTree: Roger!

March 29, 2022 Tuesday 7:48 AM
Magic Bakery

This is only a couple hours before going to the quest area. Is this better or should we just go to the quest area earlier? Let's keep that in mind so we could improve.

Tanya: I vote for simply going earlier. Our field camp is mobile. If we don't want to be bothered, we could just move behind the trees. My second suggestion is that if we start quest without going to the quest area, then we should talk at the quest channel instead of the bakery channel We could just import the quest log back to here. Then let's switch to the quest channel. Quest Channel
StarTree: How should we mark which message to import? Just write the message with no name at the credit column. Then we can easily filter out messages that are not status updates. Roger! I don't think we need a filter for a credit-less row, since we have the at-sign to show just the todo list. There is that too. If we do that, doesn't it mean we don't need the Pipe at the credit column to mask rows without credit? We can think about that later. Or should we just write the entire non-status message in the credit row? It will get filtered also. Is it really that bad if quest channel has its own row? 😅 I moved the messages to its own row so we could try and see for today! The macro would break if you do that. StarTree can make another macro for just chatting! The new macro is Ctrl+Shift+Q for messages! The original Ctrl+Shift+A is the same for rows with credits. I like this. On my view I would filter out Quest chat message. Just so you know. We'll ping you if needed. By the way, I vote for just going to the field earlier. Because the leyline is stronger there. That is a compelling reason… 😅
🕰️ [11:52 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: Today we changed the meaning of the "homework" tag from tasks that we could do outside the quest area to tasks we cannot do inside the quest area. With that change, there are only 8 homework left, but other categories increased. We couldn't keep the other categories at the same or lower than yesterday. Other than that, Sasha tried to find a good place to nap, but she hasn't found one yet. Of all the things that goes wrong, why do you talk about this? I'm sorry! It is because I want it to work and I thought it is something we could all consider... 😖 Let's consider that later. We are expecting a spawn point to erupt tomorrow morning.

What work can a person never finish?

(This puzzle was originally posted as "What work can a sculptor never finish?") Tanya: Any work beyond their ability to finish... Logically right but not the answer to this puzzle! Casey: This has to be one of those puzzles with word play. The words 'work' and 'finish' are suspicious. Is the work really a sculpture? The work is not a sculpture, and many people try to do it! I'd consider that a bad puzzle, since it is misleading. Zoey: Is it their autobiography? Congratulations! You are correct! Bad puzzle. I'd consider Tanya's answer to be the best answer against this bad puzzle. Congratulations! Tanya is the winner! Can we give star ratings to puzzles? I want to give this 1 star out of five. For puzzles, please only include yourself in the heart list if you like it. But It seems mean to not give a heart. How about you choose the icon for this puzzle? The chick in eggshell icon. Congratulations! You changed the icon! Why not just change the wording to "What work can a person never finish?" I agree that would be better. Then it is changed! The Puzzles are for you!

Is it okay if I open a quest channel every day? There is no guarantee that anything exciting would happen. 😅 If it ends up being exciting, we would just change the title to be more exciting. Hey, it turns out Puzzle Time is useful! Just to give @Mikela some credits. Thanks, @Mikela. Mikela gets Kudos from Casey, Zoey, and Evelyn for having Puzzle Time.

🕰️ [10:01 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: I think today went slightly better than expected. 😊 There were some good surprises, even though the overall outcome is unknown yet. We were at the forefront of it. 😊 That means we were the guinea pigs! XD 🤣 Could we not use animal testing references? 😅
Ledia: Could we get a more quest-like summary of what happened?
Tanya: Basically, a new seaside settlement was planned without thorough survey and ingredients for its barrier were apparently lost in miscommunication. So the settlers couldn't take care of the spawn points and called the Heroes for help. Casey looked for alternative ingredients, while Zoey charted the spawn points and updated the maps. There were many confusions, and we decided that the original barrier planned for the settlement was too strong. With Casey's resourcefulness we got what we need to build a weaker but sufficient barrier. At this moment, everything seems good except we got banshee sailors getting through the barrier. That was unexpected and even the original stronger barrier wasn't designed to block wraith-type monsters.
Ledia: So there is a ghost lurking in town. Lurking is not the right word. It is pretty obvious, actually. 😅 Apparently the design of the barrier drew them from their domain. If you try to cast summon-type spell, you would get the banshee along with what you summoned. The banshee doesn't hurt anyone but its aura makes what you summoned invisible. I hope that this is an easy fix. 😊 The sages already said they don't know why it happens yet, so the settlers would have to live with that for now. XD 😆 That's sounds annoying. When people teleport to town they become invisible. It is not scary once you know it happens. 😅 It is a ghost town XD Tanya is recognized as a Storyteller. Tanya receives

The Hospitalian Knights locked down the settlement until the barrier is fixed. End of message. I feel like crashing since it seems that we rushed for nothing... XD It might not be our responsibilities, but we could have caught the issue earlier. We "could" have if we didn't also have the many other quests we are doing. Anyway I'm turning in early. See you all tomorrow... Maybe not until lunch XD 😆 Thank you for your hard work! Zoey gets kudos from Evelyn.

Today we held the line again. The backlog for Cardinal Quest did not increase. Of the 107 quests in category A, 59 were for Deer Crossing. I hope we could clear them. Most of our "progress" so far this past two days were from crossing out quests that we had already completed. The remaining will require substantial effort. Just do them one by one. Before you know it, it will be done. I think we should try to finish as many easy ones as we can first. Reducing the list will make it much easier to manage and prioritize. Good point. How should we mark the ones we are skipping? Let use a single slash / for low priority (blue), and double slash // for pending (purple). @StarTree It's done! Let's see how far we can go tomorrow.

Deer Crossing

Quest Center is now open. I'm checking in to deal with Moss Rapids. Some road signs are wrong. I'll fix them. Copy that. Coordinate lock on. Teleport. Teleport to Moss Rapid is now connected.

🕰️ [11:30 AM] 🕰️
Zoey: I think I did what I can at Moss Rapid. Teleporting to NE Waterfall. NE Waterfall teleport is now connected. Done at Waterfall also. Let's meet at wisp circle. Calling for Ledia to support. Wisp circle barrier needs the default language selection for spell casting. I'm on it. Tanya, I've got a question about the Bazaar. That is not new. There should be an old scroll that had the same spell. According to Master, it needed an additional scroll on top of, but without changing the existing scroll. But we should track down its origin since we didn't record it the last time we checked. Okay. Next is to redraw the leyline maps...
🕰️ [11:01 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: We finished about half of the remaining tasks for Deer Crossing. I think I have enough for today... maybe for the weekend. XD What is the plan for tomorrow then? Let's do some guild quests tomorrow? I'll go treasure hunting tomorrow. Who else wants to go? I'll go, for a change of pace. May I join? I don't think I have done that. I've only heard of you doing it. Yes, of course. What is the objective? Is there something specific we are looking for? We will mainly look for materials to upgrade the leylines. And anything else that is good or interesting. The leylines got really stable in the afternoon today. The plan is to make that more permanent. Casey receives

April 3, 2022 Sunday 9:41 AM
Treasure Islands

On this fine Sunday we go to Treasure Islands to look for exotic upgrades and treasures. Have we decided whether to donate the old camera? We shouldn't take too much time deciding that, so I put it back to the shelves. I think we should explain to the reader that by Treasure Hunting we really mean thrift store shopping. And often times we also donate things. Sometimes we donate back the things we bought there... XD The old camera wasn't from a thrift store. You could just keep it if you want. It is not like we have to donate everything we don't use. I have lots of stuff I don't "need" and I'm keeping them. I know you can keep it, but what is the significance of this camera? It was the camera Magic Bakery used to publish a photo book. I see it as a witness... or perhaps an author. Little Red Riding Hood now designates the camera as a Baker and Treasure of Magic Bakery. It is part of Magic Bakery family and it shall be displayed along our book. Thank you. Tanya receives LRRH receives Tanya thanks Red for the decision. I like this ending. 😊

Tanya: On the other hand I still think we have too many board games. There is no 'We', those are mine. So mind your own business. They are yours, but they are also in the guild. I'm trying to make games for us. Then why is this Zombie game here? It is cheesy and graphical. I just thought we could use the board for our own game since the game looks SO BAD I am sure no one would be sad if we destroy it. In case you don't know certain someone here is against breaking a game and taking just the components. If the game is complete and good, someone else could have enjoyed it. It is a waste to break it apart. That's why I got this. But it is... new. The components aren't even open. That is evidence that NO ONE in their right mind would want to play it! We don't know that. If you want it just for the game board, I would rather make you one than knowingly destroy a new game. Bad games just sit on the shelves until the staff takes them off and put them in garbage! You are so afraid of destroying it but that will be its fate anyway! We are saving it! Boardgamegeek gave this game a rating of 4.4/10. Just saying. I have an idea. How about we don't get a game just for its components unless it is already on the shelves for more than 2 weeks. The price tags have dates we could check. How about we ask the staff how long they let a game sit on the shelves? Yes.
Evelyn: It turns out that there is no rule and many of the price tags don't have a date. 😅 You're making too big of a deal out of it, since it must be really cheap when I got it. Hey, I found what we came for. We just got here. 😅 There are even different colors for us to choose. XD I don't mean we have to leave. This is really common and I expected to be able to find some. So now let's see if we can find something 'Rare'. Do we get points for finding something? No, this is considered "entertainment" and you are not the entertainer. What if I get it for the guild? Not really. Normally I already got the point for suggesting that we need something. Then, when I get it, I simply complete that quest. But I already got the credit. That doesn't sound quite right. I think it is fine. If you discover something good you can still get credits. What if there is wish list and I just run the errand to get them? Do I get points or not? You get points for shopping for supplies. I think for non-supply items, you don't get points for shopping because you could have just ordered them online. But we don't just order them online if we know we could get them cheaper elsewhere. So I think shopping for those things should worth some guild credits. I think Ledia is onto something. The guild didn't recognize some tasks to be credit worthy when they should be. If the guild gives credits, should it be when someone searches for it or when someone buys it? I think both. No credits for shopping, because people tend to shop and browse for too long. If your idea is good and you get credits. It doesn't matter whether you need to buy something or you could make it work with what you already have. What if someone has many good ideas but don't make them happen? They already got the credits for suggesting it, they won't have the incentive to make it happen. I'll do something if people abuses that trust. As Casey said, the assumption is that if you make a good suggestion in good faith, you intend to fulfill it if you can. If you can't do it alone, then you would have created a proper quest and those working on it would get credits. This is not really different from how StarTree gets credits for upgrading the board. Once it is logged, someone else helping to fulfill it could get credits also. So do I get credits in this case because we as a team came to get something, and we as a team got the thing we came to get? No I classify this as entertainment. I don't want to give a point for everyone who tags along in addition to the point you already get by participating in chat. I still think there is something missing in the rules. I'll think about it.
Tanya: @StarTree, did Casey get a point for getting the leyline material? Casey got a point in the generic "Shopping" category for today! I'm totally fine with that. I already have many points and I don't really use them anyway. Casey has the third highest score in the guild! And Casey has just got another point in the "Good Deed" category for helping another shopper! Casey receives That was another three points from Arcacia, in case it wasn't obvious! I am okay with being seen as coming for entertainment. I'm not here "to get points". But points should be given when a person does something good or help other people. In our scoring there is no rule to deduct points when someone is being bad or inconveniencing other people. But I believe that if you get too few points, Arcacia would settle the difference. Then when Arcacia gave Casey points, it could be interpreted as she agreeing that Casey had been getting too few points. I wouldn't draw that conclusion. Especially when you didn't get Arcacia Award for saying that. Shopping in general takes too long. That's not the purpose of the guild. You are paying too much attention to it. You are not going to get dozens of points just by shopping for the whole day compared to what you would get from Cardinal Quest. We do get points shopping for Cardinal Quest. But I don't think there is a difference in principle. The only difference is that we got used to logging tasks during Cardinal Quest. Then, since Cardinal Quest log gave us a point, we got used to getting a point when it is convenient to log it. The difference in scoring between the two--Guild and Cardinal Quest--is not based on principles, but on the convenience of scoring. People aren't getting points unless the task is logged. In cases like this, we aren't logging, so we are losing all kinds of points. If you think you should get a point, then you should log it. But why would I log it if I know that the guild doesn't intend to give a point? Even if you log zero point, you would still create a record of your effort. Then retrospectively if the rules are corrected you would get the points back. But that's so... inconvenient.
Sasha: There is no good game here today. I'm done looking. What about this Monopoly-ish game? It has been here for a long time. But it is complete. But our conclusion was if it had been here for a long time, its next destination would only be the dumpster. That was my argument! Then are you agreeing or not? I am so confused!! @Tanya come make a reading! I'm right here... Tanya, will this game go to the dumpster if we don't get it? @Cardinal. Tanya doesn't have a skill that can predict the game would go. Aren't you the Oracle? Not in this sense. We can't easily tell the outcome unless we get the staff to tell us if someone buys it or if they discarded it. We can't even do a skill check on it. Can't you just pretend and roll the dice anyway? ... If that's what you want. Actually we could roll on whether the game will still be here the next time we return. But that's assuming that we don't buy it right now. I don't see the purpose of this guess. It is just meaningless gambling. If you roll and it says it won't be here, wouldn't that mean someone bought it? No it wouldn't. The staff could have just cleaned up and removed it. About that... I think if we come often enough, we can tell the difference between an item is gone because it was sold or discarded. If the staff cleaned up, many things would be gone. No you can't tell. You can't tell if a boardgame fan just happen to buy lots of them. Without asking someone who knows what happened to it, you can only tell if you happen to catch the moment when it is bought, or when staff puts it in the clean up cart. I think you are right. Then I ask a question. Why do you want to get it in the first place? To be honest I don't really want to get it except the tokens are cute, especially the bicycle one. For the reader, we are talking about this game. The tokens are so small. And I don't foresee us making any game that wouldn't use tokens that are ourselves. I didn't say I would use it for a game we make. I just said it is cute. By itself. There is no end if we try to get every cute thing. But it is small! It won't bother anyone. But it is also useless and meaningless. It is not relevant to Magic Bakery. If we have a bunch of different tokens, it would be interesting, although still irrelevant. I don't think we should get board games just for its part thinking that they would be useful for making our own games without first knowing what game we would most likely make.
Sasha: I did think about it. If we directly make an Arcacia Quest game, it would have a world map and the purpose of the game is to use your resources and opportunities to gain members and try to be the best country. That was Chapter 23 Philosophy Arena. XD We haven't finished it. Then components wise you only need a board, tokens to represent people, and some cards to represent you, your principles, and world events. Component wise we have enough because we already have wooden tokens from Risk without the rest. If the game is good and you want people shaped tokens we could just get meeples by themselves without breaking a game. I think it is better if we keep the game components simple and readily replaceable so that people could just print their own and play it with whatever tokens they want, and, since they can print it by themselves, they may scale it to the size they want or depending on the size of the tokens they use. I like that idea. Maybe we should continue the Philosophy Arena game? That game doesn't actually need a game board. It just needs tokens to represent followers of a philosophy. But I want to have a face for each philosophy, so I want to keep Fina, Natasha, and Alice. Should we make LEGO people for them? Then we can just take pictures and post online. I second that idea. What should we use as tokens for the followers? Other LEGO people? We do have a lot of LEGO people. I guess we would just make the leader of each philosophy taller by having them stand on a stand. So. The course of action: 1) Build Alice, Fina, and Natasha as LEGO people. 2) Restart the game by posting photos. I wonder if that would be too offensive? 😅 Actually I would be surprised if we get any attention. We have a long way to go.
🕰️ [6:29 PM] 🕰️
Casey: And so we made LEGO Natasha (Red), Fina (Green), and Alice (Blue), and also Mikela as the host.
Mikela: Hey Hey Hey! Welcome to Philosophy Arena Reboot! Here three philosophies will compete in their number of followers. To participate, please endorse one of the philosophies. You may change your endorsement until the game ends, The winner is the philosophy with the most endorsements! Let's start by letting each philosophy introduce itself!

Magic Bakery

What should we do about the domain MagicBakery.org? I believe the plan was, and still is, that once we have added all the links there here, then we would just make MagicBakery.org point to this blog.

Ledia: If that is the plan, why wouldn't you just add a link to this blog there, and add a link to that page at this blog. I do not object. Does anyone have any problem if we link the two? But wouldn't you say that this blogger site is still in alpha stage? We don't even have a greetings page for visitors. If we link the two, then we could just make the old page the greetings page. At least temproarily. I don't have a problem with that. It is up to you. @StarTree, could you link them?
StarTree: They are now linked! MagicBakery.org and panarcana.blogspot.com are now linked! It is a little unsettling that the chapters that weren't finish are still unfinished. I think we are moving away from the book/chapter format. Albatross will be the format going forward.

April 4, 2022 Monday 10:34 PM
Magic Bakery

About Albatross, on Twitter I am discussing about the definition of Property, as in Private Properties versus Public Properties. Could we make a page about it so I could link to it?

What is there to discuss? It seems pretty self-explanatory. Someone said that "Private Property" is an oxymoron because all properties are private. That makes no sense. I don't think we can debate about it unless we have a definition of what a property is. Something that belongs to the public is public property, Something that does not belong to the public but belongs to specific people are private properties. What does belong imply? It means you can move it around or decide what to do about it. For example, if a house is my property, then I can decide what to with it by myself. If a house is public property, then the public decides what to do with it, no one may decide by themselves what to do with it.
Tanya: In the context of describing decision rights, an object X is referred to as the Property of Y when Y has decision rights on X. That sounds like what I just said. I was just translating your example into a definition. Red needs a definition. I think both are important. Example and definition. It this definition correct? If by "correct" you mean whether it covers what people normally mean, then I believe so. And, this might not be what you need, but I want to draw a difference between "property" and "custody". In general, we say that X is in Y's custody when Y is does not have the rights to harm or destroy X. But we say that X is a property of Y when Y has the rights to do so. This might come in handy if we could get it on a page... @Zoey, could you add it for us?
Zoey: It is not that hard to add to the page. Why don't you do it yourself? It is better if the some person is writing it. My voice is cold and mean. Umm... Okay, but please think about how you would write it. I don't think my writing is that different, and Grammarly is built-in. You may check by yourself. XD
Zoey: I made the page. Is this what you want? Thank you! Let me see where the debate at Twitter got to. Um... Why are you debating with that Tweeter? He sounds nutz XD Are we sure we don't sound the same to others? Conceptually, if someone's logic is bad, it should be easy to show their flaw right? Could we show their flaw concisely? We don't need necessarily need to identify flaws. We could just compare. For example, his moral view suggests that properties are defined for its economical value. But in Stewardism, properties are defined to describe freedom and rights.
Tanya: In Stewardism, the more abundant or unimportant something is, the more freedom a person has in owning it. Things that are important and scarce falls are subjected to public decisions. For example, when there are plenty of spaces for house, everyone is free to build and own their own house. But when there isn't enough living spaces, then the living spaces become rationed. The more scarce something important is, the more it becomes an object of custody instead of property. I think we should add that too. Tanya, do you want to try adding it yourself? If I add it for your, it would just slow down everything. You have a world to save. I'll try.
💟
Tanya: A practitioner of Stewardism aims not to have possessions, but to take care of the world and make it a better place. Tanya receives Good job, Tanya!

Puzzle Time

A healthy man got dressed. Then he collapsed and needs to be taken to the hospital. What happened?

(Original wording of the puzzle: A healthy man got dressed. Then he lay down and died. What was going on?) Evelyn: I hope this is not an execution. 😅 Congratulations! It is not! But still very far from the answer. Casey: This is not one of those puzzles where 'dressed' means 'marinated', is it? But I guess if he was eaten by cannibals, that would count as being executed...? Dressed means he put his clothes on and such. And his death could be considered an accident. P4: Did he get bitten by a spider when he put his clothes on? Congratulations! There was a spider in his shoe! I think the tone is a little strange because the man in the puzzle died. Could we not have puzzles in that tone? 😅 If I change the title and puzzle from 'death' to 'getting hospitalized', the guesses so far won't make sense. It is okay! StarTree can fix it! Thank you! Mikela gives Kudos to Evelyn and StarTree.

An American flies to another country to find a cure for his illness, but not because the treatment was unavailable or unaffordable in America. Why?

Evelyn: Is it because he has friends and family overseas that could help take care of him? Very thoughtful but no. The country he goes for treatment is foreign to him and he knows no one there. That sounds stressful...😅 Is it important that he is from America? He doesn't have to be from Americas but the difference between the country he is from and where he goes is important for the puzzle. Sylvia: Is he a substance abuser? So he goes to another country where those substances are not available? Congratulations! He went to a country that bans alcohol to cure his alcoholism! Fact check: Countries that ban alcohol

Cardinal Quest Debriefing

Today Tanya suggested that we need to pace ourselves to clear the 300 quest backlog. So we focused on Fort Arsenal and cleared 30. The backlog is now at 270.

Zoey: In case people are curious, we have seven field quest backlog counter for Cardinal Quest. From 300 to 270 is just one of the counters. Yes, and for today we managed to hold the line. Every counter is either held the same or reduced.
Ledia: The "Homework" counter is almost clear. Why don't we clear it? The remaining one was from Casey. It says, "In general, don't store things in the field because the mist is dirty. Get crates for field storage." I don't know what to do about it. 😅 It literally asks for crates. But I don't think there is space for crates. @Casey?
Casey: I haven't found a suitable crate yet. I want a small one. I think it is better to cross it out from field notes and move it to the treasure hunting list. I agree, that's where we should see it. And now the homework category is cleared. 😊
Sasha: I don't get it. You didn't finish anything. You just moved it. Now the treasure hunting list is longer. We did do something. We moved it to where it should be to get fulfilled. But in terms of number, it is the same. We don't track how many things are in the search list. It is not really urgent.
Tanya: We are saving time by removing tasks we don't need to review every day. The homework tag is doing its job. We use it to tag tasks we record on the field but should be moved off the field notes. If you say so.

We have changed how we post things a few time. Not to burden everyone about it, I am taking the liberty to import our old profiles from Google Slides as screenshots.

Thank you! Little Red Riding Hood thanks Ledia. I look so big on the screen it is embarrassing. 😅 And the drawings look really nice. I miss 3B. Should we start importing the rest of the manga page? I thought we were saving those scores for her. If she got too few credits, we should just add it back and recalculate it. We shouldn't need to save up a chore for her to do to get credits that she should already have gotten. @StarTree, how many credits should 3B have? StarTree has no idea! But 3B drew or translated more than 300 pages of manga! StarTree receives Wee~~!! @Tanya, does it sound about right that each manga page should worth 3 points?
Tanya: Concept/drafting should worth 1 point. Outlining should worth at least 1 point. Shading should worth 1 point. Uploading it would be another point. Translating is another point. We are not accounting for the Arcacia Award points that she would have gotten when she was making them. How about 5 points per page for the 250 pages? 1250 points on top of her current points. Any objections? That sounds about right. She started a year before we started, I think? @Arcacia? Little Red Riding Hood receives It is approved. StarTree please update her score.
StarTree: @3B's score has been updated! 3B is now taking the lead with 1415 points at Level 37! Justice.
3B: I'm sorry for having been gone so long! Just let me know if you need something drawn! 🙏 Welcome back, 3B! 😃 I'm going to start importing your manga pages to this Blogger if you don't mind. Of course not. Sorry for falling behind. I don't think you are responsible for posting it again when the blog changes. No one has such responsibility. But I can get credits for doing it. Yes you are right. 3B, some of us have added daily routine. Do you want to add a daily routine? I guess I could draw something simple everyday, but wouldn't that just take up space and pollute the internet?
Zoey: How about we try a game where, on the same page, we all draw something on it? Then at the end of the month, that would be the picture for the calendar. I like that idea. 😃 Zoey receives Are you sure that's a good idea? It would just look very messy. I can't picture it until we try it... 😅 And, if you start drawing before the month ends, you won't now what is important in that month to draw something representative of the month. Then should we draw for the previous month? Bingo! I admit that seems like a better idea. Sasha receives I don't think the drawing needs to be a summary of a month. It by itself is also what we do that month. It would be like a month-long conversation, but not in words but in pictures. Evelyn receives Let's try it and see what happens.

Today I started drawing Neil because he doesn't have an avatar picture. I couldn't finish.

A dragonborn! XD A thinking dragon. I like it. Please let us know if we could help. 😊 Normally my next step would be to draw the outline. After that would be shading or coloring. However, since my sketch is rough, outline might be difficult... So is it okay if someone else does the outline? Yes, if you don't want to draw something different. I also want to complete the avatars for all members. Then we can work on the same one. If my outlining is okay, then you could just do the next sketch. I think drawing the sketch is harder than drawing the outline, so in order to get easier XP I would prefer to do the outline. Oh. Okay. 😅

202204101024|Authoritarian
April 10, 2022 Sunday 10:24 AM
World Tree

What is our definition of Authoritarian?

Ledia: Authoritarian means people are commanded on what to do instead of choosing what to do. It is the opposite of being autonomous. If a restaurant offers three choices of meals, but someone would punish you if you don't choose Meal A, then that someone is being authoritarian. If you are allowed to choose the meal you want and no one would punish you, then it is autonomous. What about laws that disallow stealing? Is that authoritarian or autonomous? What do you mean by "disallow". If the law simply states that "People who steals are allowed to be stolen from," then it is not authoritarian. Treating people the way the treater others is not authoritarian. You don't need to make a law to tell people to retaliate. People would autonomously choose to retaliate if the law allows. Does that make stealing legal or illegal? In terms of guild membership, that would be illegal. If you steal from inside or outside a guild, the guild will kick you out. If you steal from the outside, and the guild does not kick you out, the guild would become a target of retaliation. And a guild having its own membership rules is not authoritarian? It is not authoritarian when guild membership is a result of mutual agreement. Both sides need to agree. A person can't demand a guild to accept them, and a Guild can't just say something is their member without their consent. I think we are getting somewhere interesting...
Zoey: What about a law that says people can't have more than one home? Is that authoritarian? It depends on what the law actually says. If the law says, "Our system only registers one home per person. Unregistered homes are considered available for someone with no home to register as theirs." then it is not authoritarian. You mean... someone without a home can then just register that home and be a rightful owner? Yes. By the way, I am not arguing whether such law is morally good or bad. I am strictly commenting on what makes a law authoritarian vs autonomous. For my understanding, what would make that law authoritarian? If the law says, "If you own more than one home we will put you in jail", then than would be authoritarian. What if the law says, "If you own more than one home, then we consider you an object that can be stored in a storage room." ? It is authoritarian because the subject is no longer the home but the person. What about, "If you claim to own more than one home, then we recognize that you are capable of splitting up into as many parts as the number of homes you own and simultaneously occupy them." That would be autonomous, but doing so does not give the law the right to separate the person into parts. The person would have to separate themselves to demonstrate legitimacy. Can we... not talking people separating into parts? 😅 But P4 can do that. In that law, would P4 be allowed to own four houses while others may only own one? Her split is not permanent. So her legitimacy of owning four houses should also be temporary. What about StarTree? StarTree can clone herself by budding. You don't need extraordinary examples, human can have kids... the kids can have their own home. The difference seem superficial. I don't think people would accept this difference. The difference is subtle in words, but not so in how the society is organize.
Ledia: An authoritarian society may ban or require carrying of personal protection weapons, where as a voluntarian society would let each individual decide by themselves. In a voluntarian society, individual groups can still define their membership conduct. What if a guild decides that it is legal for its members to bully others? Would gang violence be legal then? To that guild, yes, it would be considered legal. But so would be another guild that declares that it is legal for its members to protect people who are bullied, and such a guild may have a guild rule so that if you don't help the guild protect innocent people, you cannot be part of the guild. The members are allowed to leave the guild. What if the guild has a law that it is legal to hunt down deserting members? That type of law is authoritarian because when it denies members the right to leave. But they might have signed a contract and agreed on being hunt down if they desert the guild. In voluntarism, such contracts are not enforceable. When someone tries to hunt you down for deserting, from Paladins perspective it is the same as they initiating an unprovoked attack on a free person. Unless the person being hunted voluntarily allows its former guild mates to hunt them down, then it would be considered a consensual interaction. How do you put that concisely? What doesn't voluntarism cover? Voluntarism only covers the case when all parties maintain consent for the continuation of the interaction, with the concept of implied consent where a party is allowed to be treated the way they treat others. So in the case of a member deserting a guild, the guild is only allowed to desert the member in return. It doesn't give the guild a right to hunt down the ex-member unless the ex-member is hunting down the guild. Ledia receives May the guild hunt down an ex-member if they possess sensitive information that would threaten the personal safety of its members. No. Voluntarism only covers the case if the guild divulges personal information if the ex-member divulges theirs. If a guild starts hunting others, regardless whether they were ever a member, just because they have the ability to hurt them, then anyone may also hunt down that guild just for having the ability to hunt others. Paladin guilds don't hunt others just because others can hunt. Intention to initiate a hunt is also required to justify preemptive strike.
🕰️ [11:18 AM] 🕰️
Zoey: How should I name the difference between these two: 1) An interaction happens due to mutual agreement, 2) An interaction happens due to a party acts on another without their consent, and the other retaliates under implied consent.? I think (1) is mutualism, (2) is voluntarism. When you retaliate, you are still acting from your volition. Voluntarism includes situations where a person initiates a voluntary attack. If voluntarism just means people act on their volition, then we need a word that means mutualism plus implied consent. What about reciprocationism? It means treating other the way they treat others. It covers mutualism when people reach an agreement before acting. Yes, I think we need that word. Zoey added Reciprocationism to Seed of Peace.

I'm changing training session 1 to be earlier. So just roll out of bed and teleport while your body is still warm from the bed. You don't need to be fully awake when you arrive. The training will wake you up. Let's see who else can do this while sleeping. 😅
Evelyn: I will open quest channel after the first training session. The Guild Log is now using "Clip" text option so that you may see what cell is blank! If you are allowed to choose the meal you want and no one would punish you, then it is autonomous. Thank you! Evelyn thanks StarTree for taking care of the board.

LRRH: Our online discussion got us an invite to draft a policy. @Zoey could you help? I don't have a reference of what is should look like in the end. I'll ask for a reference and start some bullet points. I imagine I'll state the purpose, then list more than one policy so that we could compare and discuss them internally before promoting it further. 👍 Which policy is this? The one about housing. We talked a little bit about it yesterday. I am putting the draft at Albatross because we are behind putting it there for Red to link for discussions. XD

202204131146|Crystal Lake Cave
April 13, 2022 Wednesday 11:46 AM
Crystal Lake

Legends has it that in Crystal Lake, there is a cave full of treasures. I've just gotten a key to the cave. Who's with me?

Tanya: We are in a hurry. We haven't had a proper Cardinal Quest for so long. I think if we keep the chat short and elaborate on it later, it will be fine. I agree. 😊 We've never been there before, let's gather some information. The inn lady said the cave has two entrances. This is the key for the west entrance. She said the entrance probably has a sign. It can't be that hard. So the inn lady has never been there? Probably not. But it is not like the key is fake. People go their with the key and comes back. She keeps the keys. Let's ask someone who had actually been there. Tanya found a sailor who had been there. He confirmed that that was the key. However, just as the party were to head to the cave, they said, "by the way, if the key doesn't work, you need to shake it." Is this one of those ghetto quests?
Cardinal: The party arrived at West Shore beach, where the alleged entrance was supposed to be. There is a cave with trees in front of it. Do I see a sign? You don't see a sign. Do I see a sign? You don't see a sign either. However, you see that across a bay where there was a giant turtle, there were at least two more caves. Protect. The party now has Protect. Should we just try it? Maybe there is no sign. If it works we don't need to go around the turtle. ... I try opening it with the key. The key gave out a glow as you entered. But the entrance did not open. I shake it. There seems to be no difference. I use far-seeing to look around the other caves. Tanya sees that they other caves had signs leading to elsewhere. By the process of elimination... Did I just not shake it hard enough? I shake it harder. There seems to be no difference. Should we call... James?
James: James comes to the rescue! Evelyn gives James the key. 🙏 James uses the key. The key glows, but the entrance does not open. James shakes the key. There is no observable difference. The entrance is not open. James shakes it as hard as he can. James shakes the key as hard as he can, and... Loses 1 stamina in his attempt. The entrance remains closed. Hiding his utter disappointment, James proclaims that if he shakes it any harder, the key is going to break. I'm sorry! Thank you for helping us, we know there is another entrance, we will try that. 😖 I found the sign. P4 points at it. From her vintage point, P4 could see the sign hidden behind the overgrown vegetation. The sign indicates that this is the entrance. I don't think the sailor was stronger than James. Maybe he shakes it in a different way. We need a demonstration.
Tanya: Long story short, the Sailor was the only one who could open the entrance with shaking. But we couldn't tell the trick to the shaking, so... I asked the Hospitalian Knights to change the entrance. I got what I was looking for, and found that we are missing two things, presumably somewhere at the bottom of the lake. I suppose that would be a story for another day. We had to end the storytelling because it is getting past bed time. Good night everyone! 😅

202204152139|Weekend Plan
April 15, 2022 Friday 9:39 PM
Treasure Bay

Hey, what's our plan this weekend? I want to go look for the pink hair for Arcacia.

Tanya: I think you should just buy it. The last time we checked, there is only one. Yes, but what about the adventure? I am not against adventures, looking for things we know we could get is not much of an adventure. Are we talking about getting a pink LEGO hair for Arcacia? Yes. I am okay with getting it online and have more family time. 😅 Family Puzzle marathon? I'm okay with that 😃 @StarTree, could you look for the Pink hair at BrickLink? It is found! I'll see if it also have other pieces I want...
🕰️ [10:48 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: Other than shopping, what is our weekend plan? Albatross quest please. We are behind putting concepts up for Albatross. What is our stance on this Risk boardgame that has been here for weeks? @Sasha? 😅 It is for us to play, eventually. I don't think we will play war games. But wars are real. It even has Kiev in it. And I got it when it was on sale. But I don't see it happening in this guild. We are a peacemaker guild. Why would we play a war game for fun? Maybe it would be educational? Evelyn, I see a curse affecting Sasha. Could you de-curse her? I don't see what you mean. 😖 She got this game for some reason. She might not even know the reason, so she is making up reasons to justify her impulse. There is a curse on her. Sasha, what do you like about this game? Hmmm... It has cool components? These crowns, these castle cities, and different miniatures for each faction. I don't quite get it. 😅 Sasha, I think we talked about not getting games just for their components. And the majority of the components in this game are soldiers. We can't have a situation where we imagine commanding them to fight each other. That should be against guild rule. It is against guild rule. I put it on the page already. But we played Adventure Begins. We fought there also. An all out war game is definitely a step in the wrong direction. In Adventure Begins, we were playing ourselves and it was cooperative. I don't want to play a game where we fight each other, especially when it is by sending others to fight. 🙏 Hold on there. In this game, you DON'T have to fight. You could just defend your borders against others who try to fight you. You could win by just earning crowns without attacking anyone. Then it is better than I imagined. But large scale fighting is still a tragedy to imagine. But wouldn't you want to test how peacemaking methods work if OTHERS are trying to take over the world? Shouldn't that be the end goal of the guild? I find that argument quite compelling. If you want peace, prepare for war. Someone gets it. I am surprised that Tanya didn't get it. Not all peacemaking guilds are the same. This is not a paladin guild. Simulation is not entertainment. I agree with Tanya on that also. But then how does the guild rule "If it ain't fun, change it" work? Simulation is not fun. Therefore we need to make it fun. If it is not fun thinking about how to defend the world from someone trying to take it over, then we need to make it fun thinking and preparing about. But this is warfare. 😅 No it is not. It is a war *game*. We aren't destroying any pieces. They know that it is a number and dice game. If their number is not enough. They are "defeated" and stay outside the board. No one is actually hurt unless you WISH to imagine that people are getting hurt and such. I didn't ask you to wish for that. I'm presenting you a GAME with defined game rules. If you WISH to imagine people are getting hurt, that's on you. I find that to be a very compelling argument, if the players simply do not mention or refer to anyone being hurt. So from this number and dice game, we can PLAY and experience the other issues such as diplomacy and alliance. It is educational. Even if you do so, the game will not be played because we have more direct and faster ways to imagine and discuss diplomacy and alliance, than to spread a game board and move game pieces around. That might work for you, but for some the visual aid will make the discussion more attractive and memorable.
🕰️ [11:57 PM] 🕰️
Sasha: At this point, if I ask you whether Adventure Begins or Risk Europe is a more relevant game for the guild, you should conclude that Risk Europe is better. And us playing it would lead us to Arcacian Quest constantly. We will learn and grow together and it will be fun. I think Sasha's argument is compelling, especially when I am responsible for imagining suffering when there is no need.

After adding a bus lane to a busy street, the city's death rate dropped. Why is that?

Black: Is it because the traffic got slower so there are fewer collisions? 44: Or is it because there are fewer lane change so fewer accidents? The number of collision/accidents didn't change! 44: Is it because there are more people? 🤔 Evelyn: Is it because the bus lane allows ambulances to move faster? Congratulations! That's correct! 🚑🚑🚑

202204171326|What is Freedom?
April 17, 2022 Sunday 1:26 PM
World Tree

I'm making a post at Seed of Peace about our definition of freedom. How do we want to use/define that word?

Tanya: I would first define Ability. Ability means a person being able to do something. Freedom is different from Ability. Freedom means whether a person is allowed to do something without retaliation.
Ledia: How about defining freedom as the actual result/condition describing whether some can do without resistance? For example, a powerful villain that without meaning opposition is said to be "Enjoying their freedom to do evil". That doesn't mean they have a right to do evil. It just means no one has the means to stop or restraint them. Then in your definition, "Freedom" by itself is a neutral word. It does not imply whether a person is allowed to act or not. That would contradict with the intent behind terms such as "Freedom of Speech". That implies that the speaker is not retaliated against for speaking. To describe that villain, I would say, "their violation of other people's freedom is unopposed."
Black: I want to distinguish between "Freedom" and "Liberty". I want Liberty to mean what a person or society allows. Freedom to describe a situation to act without restrain. If we make that distinction, then we can evaluate different "freedom" and refer to the ones that we subscribe as "liberty". I agree with that. The word "Freedom" is also used to describe evil behaviors. And yes, "free" means being unrestrained, which also means without being retaliation. But it doesn't imply that the reason is people "approve" or "allow" it. Freedom is something you can define by yourself and claims that others are violating. Liberty is not something you can define by yourself because it is given. The meaning of Liberty would be similar to "permission", except a permission is something you need to ask others to get, while liberty covers everything you are allowed to do without asking for a permission on a case by case basis. I see.
Zoey: Then what is a right?
Black: I think as this point I want Right to mean something that is morally right and a person shall be given the liberty to do. Liberty refers to what a person or a regime allows others or its people to do. Rights refer to what those people and regimes should allow people to do. So when a country recognizes a right (a human right), the country would craft its laws accordingly to support it. The set of freedom allowed by law is the liberty that the country offers. If the country's legislature is outdated, the liberty it offers may be insufficient to protect a person's human rights. Let me write it up first so we could comment. XD
🕰️ [2:36 PM] 🕰️
Zoey: What do you think about this? 👍 👍

202204171556|Guild Quests
April 17, 2022 Sunday 3:56 PM
Magic Bakery

There are only 8 quests under the "Guild" category. Could someone help me finish one of them?

Sasha: @Cardinal, roll a die and tell us one of them please. Cardinal: D8=2. "Guild member nomination and recognition instead of employee evaluation." What is that supposed to mean? Unlike a company that may have employee evaluation, our guild should have nominations and recognition of guild members. Don't we already have that? If a member wants a recognition they would just ask for one. I think that is different. And there is the leaderboard that shows the highest score member. But when you look at the leaderboard you can't tell what they are especially good at. Is that something you want to see at a member's profile? Maybe ? The quest is ill-defined XD The last time we had a nomination, it was Fina nominating posts for having the best tab style. But that was about things we make, not we ourselves.
Evelyn: I think I prefer awards based on what we do instead of about ourselves. For example, I would be more comfortable having a statistic on "who helped the most people" instead of "who is the nicest". I can see that.
Vivi: I want to see how each member gets the majority of their scores, and for each "chapter" I want to see the highest scorer. I am fine with those statistics. StarTree doesn't know how to do that automatically! But we need that functionality. Otherwise it would be hard for people to see the fairness of the scoring. Red, is that something you want to do? I think it can be that. Let's start from the top. 3B is the highest scorer at the moment. And we know that most of her points came from drawing manga. How do we want to put that on her profile? As of April 17, 2022, 3B has 1424 points. 1328 of which are from Manga charter. That is more than 93% of her score! So I would put "Score Leader of CH 12 @Manga." This recognition is unlikely to change anytime soon. What you said is correct, but that's not what StarTree said. StarTree said 3B got 93% of her score from @Manga, not that 3B contributed 93% of the scores of @Manga. Ok. My bad. StarTree does not know how to tally the highest scorer for each charter because a scoring row could have more than one participant! I don't think we need to be that accurate. I think it is less about accuracy but automation. Accuracy would come as a bonus if we enable automation. I am fine with what Ledia would put for 3B. I want to know Tanya's score distribution. Of Tanya's 992 points: 379 are from Cardinal Field Log. 366 from Guild Log, and 217 from Daily Log! Tanya's 366 points Guild Log scores distribution is: Concept 111, Board 77, Guild 45, Cardinal 32, Whale 31, Vacation 23, Seed 9, Skill 8, Paladin 6, Wish 6, Freedom 4, Music 4, Puzzle 3, Happy 2, Treasure 2, Arena 1, Dream 1, Makeover 1 That looks like a quite balanced distribution. Is Tanya the score leader of @Concept? The top scores of @Concept are Tanya 111, LRRH 95, Zoey 23, Fina 19, Vivi 12 I would put Tanya is a contributor in many areas and the score leader for Cardinal Quest and CH 16 @Concept. I don't care how Tanya's score compares to other members. I just want to know where she got credits. An audit column is now added to the charter list in Google Sheets! I want that information to be available at the profile so people don't have to go to Google Sheets. I am okay with the kind of information Ledia puts. More detail is fine also. Who's third? Evelyn is third! I... I'm third? 😳
StarTree: Evelyn passed StarTree TODAY and becomes the third highest scorer in the guild! 🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations! And what are her scores? Cardinal Field Log 274 I'm fine if you just copy and paste that to her profile. That is super dry. I think it should be hidden behind a click. Is Evelyn the score leader of @Happy? Yes she is! And she is leader of receiving Arcacian awards in Daily Log! Every time I sing I get Arcacian award. 😊 When you sing during Cardinal Quest, you get 5 points. 1 in the Field log, 1 in the Daily log for singing, and 3 for Arcacian Award. 3B gets 5 points for drawing and translating a page of manga. It took her hours. But singing only takes a minute. I can't tell if it is fair or not 😖 We need bards during the quest for mana regen. I don't see a compelling reason to adjust the scores. We don't get many points for discussing. We get points for generating and presenting ideas. We are not awarding points based on effort but on need. If we discover how to better use 3B's manga, then 3B can get more points. But we are using avatars that 3B draw every day. So are most of the concepts that we define. I also don't have a compelling argument.
Ledia: Red, does this take care of the Guild Quest? Maybe ? You can't clear the quest when the quest objective is undefined XD Is it okay if we just do three of them? I would just update it as part of @Makeover. Okay. Then I'll say it is done for @Guild. LRRH gives Ledia Kudos for taking the quest.

With the Field Log taking care of the Cardinal Quest, I propose moving Cardinal Quest down to Tier 3, as we *continue* to do Cardinal Quest almost daily through the field log. Next, I propose moving @Seed from Tier 2 (Weekly) to Tier 1 (Daily) to help clear its backlog to support ongoing discussions. Third, I propose moving @Book to Tier 2 to promote expand our horizon and considerations.

No objection. Can we really keep up doing Albatross daily? XD 😅 At least the content is mostly there. We just need to post them to avoid re-thinking the same topics. @Seed has a backlog of 38 tasks, @Concept 106! There are more on Twitter. 🍮 We'll see how it goes then! XD For those wondering what happens to the effort to clear all Tier 2 quests this week, Patricia had just updated @Book! Tier 2 is still cleared for this week!
"Prioritize your spending list: Time is the most valuable thing a person can spend."

🕰️ [8:52 PM] 🕰️
StarTree: Speaking of spending, are we buying the missing LEGO pieces?
Ivy: I still oppose the focus of using LEGO as props. Ivy: We would need many LEGO objects for the scenes, which requires a lot of time to build. Casey: But there should be an hour before bed time where screens are off. We can build in that time and it would be relaxing.
Casey: There is no schedule for building. It is a relaxing and creative time. Sasha: I'm with Casey on this one. I'd say in that hour, we can't even play board game, but we can still play with LEGO. I thought it would be funny trying to fact check whether playing with LEGO before bed is healthy, so I Googled it and found a book XD 🤣 What else can we do in that hour? ... I think that is a cute routine. 🐣 I'm just curious here, but why didn't you say that LEGOs are plastic and bad for the environment. They are not single use plastic. They are not going to the landfill. Ivy receives Anyway, I am just expressing my concern on that direction. I'm not trying to stop you from doing what you want. Thank you for looking out for the guild. Casey thanks Ivy for trying to help.
Sasha: So do we start building today? StarTree wants to first know whether she submits the order! You shouldn't buy it until you have a routine of building it. Please test your routine for a week or two first. I guess that is a fair challenge.

April 18, 2022 Monday 10:12 PM
Harbor

@Whale has about 24 quests remaining. @Cardinal could you roll the die? Cardinal: D24=14. "Add a section on how Black fails." That's long over due. Let me look up the last time we got a FAIL on our field log...

Black: The most recently discovered FAIL was from last week. I sent out a crystal that didn't work. I didn't test it because I didn't have the mana type to power it up. Ghetto. Do we have a mean to check before sending out the next time? We can't power up the whole crystal, but we can do enough to see if it doesn't power up at all. I didn't think of that way before. But you still didn't do it after you know that you can do it. But now we know why it didn't work. Plus I didn't really have time powering it with alternative mana. I think you are overestimating the time it takes. I see an interesting Oracle moment here. Suppose we try and it works, then we have wasted time testing. But that is part of our responsibility. If we don't test it, we are wasting someone else's time. No. If we don't test it AND it fails, then we are wasting someone else's time. If we don't test and it works, then that is the optimal outcome.
Evelyn: How long does it take to test it? Maybe an hour. Is that something I can do? Yes, but that's not your responsibility. But we are in the same team. 😅 I haven't checked recently, but it was monster infested the last time I saw the mana well. You might need help getting to it. Sounds like an adventure. When would be a good time to go? The first thing we should do tomorrow is to check the Crystal Lake gate seal. Hospitalian Knights are going to remove the barrier and let the water back. We need to check before that. A reasonable time to check the crystal would be tomorrow evening, Thank you. I'll plan for that.
Evelyn: Did anything go well today?
Tanya: Casey was resourceful. She quickly found an alternative when a bridge broke. But I realized that there were two other FAILs. I marked them on the field log for next time. 😅

Tanya suggested that we should work on @Seed daily. Let's see if we can keep this up. @Cardinal, could you roll the die? Hold on. Let's work on putting up Stewardism. That's the current topic. Okay.

Zoey: In Stewardism, how do we define extra vs essential land in the context of personal dwelling?
Ledia: I feel that that's a scientific question.
Tanya: The essential dwelling should have enough space for a person to sleep comfortably and to store essential supplies such that it is sustainable. The more convenient the locale is, the less space is essential for storing supplies and tools. So it depends on the locale? Yes, and the individual. I have an idea. it is probably wrong, but I'm just going to toss it out.
Casey: If A has housing but B doesn't, when A needs to give housing to B, then A should give B the size of their largest bedroom. My reason is, that is how they would treat themselves. Then why just the bedroom? Why not their largest plot of extra land?
Tanya: We need to know what is essential to tell what is extra. But if their dwelling is big and continuous, then we need another method to determine what is essential. The method that applies to continuous space would also apply to disjointed space. So Casey's method won't work for a continuous large space. People would just argue that none of them has acquire enough essential space, so no one needs to share anything.
Ivy: Essential space should have enough space for a person to rest and meditate, with access to natural clues for they circadian physiology. A person should have enough space to stretch in place, and be able to see the sky. Along that line of thinking, it should have access to clean air. Yes. Essential space should allow their personal caretaking tools to rest also. That would include protective equipment, and clothing.
Ledia: Should essential dwelling include a restroom and kitchen? That doesn't seem essential unless a person is diseased. According to universal precautions, you would assume everyone else is diseased. So a person dwelling should allow them enough space to shelter in place with personal protective equipment off. How long should they be allowed to shelter in place? it would depend on the local threat. If we just consider quarantine, maybe 2 weeks. This means people don't need to go elsewhere for quarantine. They may self quarantine.

On September 9, 1752 in London, there was no birth, no death, no crimes and no celebrations. What happened?

Casey: Is that referring to a work of fiction or a poem? Nope. It is very real! Real as if I look it up online I can find what happened? Yes! But then I would find what happened. Yes! And you would find that nothing happened! What...? Zoey: Was there a strike? Like all the reporters were on strike in London? Nope. There was no strike! Ledia: Was there a political scandal that was covered up? There was no cover-up! Nothing actually happened! This is mind boggling. Sasha: Is it just due to chance? That day just happen to have no birth and no death? It is not due to chance! What does that even mean?! You're saying that not only no one died, but no one could die on that day! In London, at least. Evelyn: Did London not exist on that day? Like it used to have a different name, or its name was temporarily changed? 😅 Nope, London was called London before and after. But you're on the right track! Right track...? 😅 P4: Did people evacuated on that day? So no one was in London? No one evacuated, but nothing happened! Were there people in London on that day? That turned out to be a very philosophical question! I have no idea how to answer that! You mean you don't know whether there were people there? I don't know how to answer that question! You could discuss that after you know the answer! Evelyn still has the closest answer! Sylvia: Did they used to have a leap day on September 9? Then changed it to February 29? It wasn't a leap day! But this is EXTREMELY close! So I'm going to tell you the answer: 44: Is it related to change of calendar scheme? Britain changed its Calendar format! September 3 to September 13 1752 did not exist! Fact checked XD

202204231708|Secret Interview
April 23, 2022 Saturday 5:08 PM
Noisy Office

At a noisy office, five job interviewees were instructed to wait until they were called. A few minutes later, one of them got up and entered the inner office, and subsequently got the job. What job were they applying for?

Ledia: Was it a sales job? If you wait to be called you'll never get the sales. Very insightful but not the answer to this puzzle! The instruction was literally legit! P4: Were they called? But only one interviewee heard it? That is part of it! What job were they applying for? What job requires you to know you are being called in a noisy office? 44: Something to do with eavesdropping? Nope. But alertness is required. 44: Bodyguard? Very good guess but not for this interview! Evelyn: Were they applying to be nurses or secretary? Nope. Here is a hint: At the interview, they were not called verbally! Zoey: Were they called by a sign? And there were supposed to be able to see it? So it was testing their eyesight? They were called by sound, but the call was not verbal! Tanya: Were they radio operators? And they were being called by their callsigns? Congratulations! It was the 1800s! They were applying to be telegraph operators and the interviewer was calling them in Morse code! Tanya receives Arcacia is calling us. 😊 Evelyn receives

202204231810|Moral and Policy
April 23, 2022 Saturday 6:10 PM
World Tree

Is moral compass necessary in discussing policies?

Tanya: If you propose a policy, you should have evaluated whether it is morally sound. And if possible you should also evaluate its effect and impact. So if you propose a policy, it is fair if others ask you to show that it is morally sound. If you cannot show that, then you haven't done the prerequisite due diligent for others to pay attention. Then you are not proposing a policy, but asking for help in evaluating your policy.
Zoey: What about the argument where people with different moral compass may still agree on the same policy, so it is not necessary to talk about moral compass in the discussion? Then you are describing a case where no one happens to question the moral validity of the policy. If no one questions the validity and no one shows its validity, then the discussion group is at risk of Group Think. They are at risk to be ALL WRONG together because they didn't vet the policy at something fundamental. That is surely one way for a group to end up deciding to do something morally wrong.
Zoey: What about the argument that even if you know that your proposal is morally sound, in order to get acceptance, you would present it the way the opposition believe would benefit them. I don't think one could normally pull that off because people are opposed to changes. People can quiet easily tell or form an opinion on how a change would impact them in the short term and oppose it. So if you just give them short term benefits with strings attached, you could potentially wait until they get used to the benefit and are willing to compromise to keep the benefit.
Zoey: For housing, we know that Stewardism would say something like "If a place is unoccupied, it is not wrong to take shelter there," and the corresponding Arcacian policy is, "You may get credits for building shelters for others." For Arcacian credits, people would say that is taxation through inflation. They would say those credits have no value because one would need a lot of them to trade for something, if there is anything that they may get with it. We don't need to spend Arcacian points for day-to-day things, because the provider get credits. Correct, as in the case of sustainable abundance. People are helping each other and don't have to worry about whether they have enough credits to get what they want.
Zoey: Is Arcacian economy a type of gift economy? Yes, as opposed to transactional economy. But not all gift economies are Arcacian. Arcacian has the requirement of helping. And you can't define helping without define what moral compass is in use.
Zoey: How do we counter the perception that if someone talks about moral, they must believe that there is only one moral compass? That is just wrong. People with different moral compass can discuss the differences and identify what policies would fit both compasses.
Zoey: What is the difference between Moral View and Moral Compass? A Moral Compass is a rule or a set of rules that helps a person test whether something is morally right. A Moral View is more fuzzy and general notion about what is good or bad, but without the precise guidance. A Moral Compass is a test to help a person determine objectively whether an action violates a Moral View.
Zoey: In what moral view would people discuss/draft policy by starting with moral check? Hospitalian Knights do that. It is part of the legislative process. Each law must be grounded in protecting basic rights. If you can't connect the law to it, then there shouldn't be a law about it. What about dress code? How does that tie to protecting basic rights? The dress code is not a law. It is part of a Guild's code of conduct. There is no Hospitalian law saying that a guild member needs to adhere to the guild's dress code, and there is no law saying that a guild can't require its members to follow the dress code. There is no laws about it because having such laws would violate freedom of association, since an entity is free to define its code of conduct, and individuals are free to join. No one needs to join a guild. Why is the requirement for the Law different from guild code of conduct?
Tanya: The law is about when a person may act in defense of someone's rights. Those actions would normally be disallowed if someone's right was not violated. The Laws are all for defining when the Paladins can mobilize and use force to right the wrongs. Tanya: Violating a guild's dress code is not a situation that warrants Paladin deployment. Exactly. There is no dress code law. *Look at me* Ledia is not in Hospitalian Knights. That's correct. I am in Arx. That's a different guild.
Zoey: Okay. I wrote something about it. Is this correct? According to that, Arcacianism does not recognized self-help. Forbidding someone from helping themself is not a moral violation? That's is not what Arcacian principle means.
LRRH: A person can "self-help", except in Arcacian terminology, no one is ever alone. You are always with your better self and Arcacia is with you. Little Red Riding Hood receives In Arcacianism, there are no singular persons. Every person is a plurality. So please change the wording. You can "help yourself" in Arcacianism and others shall not stop you from helping yourself. Corrected.

202204241321|Cleric Protect
April 24, 2022 Sunday 1:21 PM
Adventurer's Hall

📋
It was postulated that in addition to Protect against physical attacks, which would be classified as a Paladin skill, there is a also a Cleric class Protect. Do you agree? Do you see a difference?

Evelyn: The Cleric peacemaker archetype is makes peace by mediating ideological conflicts. The Cleric Protect skill lets people with conflicts to discuss peacefully and find constructive solutions and agreements. And how do you cast that spell? I would keep the discussion oriented in addressing the problem, highlighting common values, avoid accusation tone, let people feel welcomed as a contributor. Could you give an example of each? It is difficult to imagine examples... 😅
LRRH: Say someone is petitioning for the city to rezone a piece of farmland for business because the petitioners don't want to commute elsewhere to work. The opposition says that it would reduce farmland and cause traffic congestion. How would you Protect the discussion?
Evelyn: If I am the host I would start by requesting both inputs and solutions.
Mikela: Hey hey hey! Let's make it fun and have a mock discussion! Mikela casts special event flare. Mikela is recognized as Herald.
Fina: What is the purpose of the business? It is for high tech research. Let's say it is not safe or practical to do in someone's home. They need a separate facilitate for that. Are there are location willing to let them build? Hmm... Yes. Then what is the issue? Why can't they build there and move there? Let's say they don't want to move because they grew up here. If they build locally, they would need to reimburse the other local people for the impact they cause. But they are doing the research for everyone. Why do they need to leave? Isn't there a Stewardism rule that local should take care of them? High tech research doesn't necessarily benefit the local. What if they do? But the other local wants to exploit them by kicking them out so they don't need to bear the congestion during the research, which will benefit them. That doesn't explain why they would refuse to move when another location already wants them there.
Ivy: The purpose of this discussion is not to actually find a solution, but to demonstrate what Cleric Protect is. So please be mean and attack each other. Little Red Riding Hood doesn't want to be mean because that's not CUTE! It is more like you CAN'T be mean because you have no moral ground in this argument. You are at the mercy of the local letting you be there because you aren't willing to compensate them for the lost of environment and convenience. You are trying to sneak by without paying your fair costs. But I'm doing research that will benefit you. Not unless I ask for it. You can't show up to someone saying you will clean their house then demand you have a right to the house unless they let you clean it. But the result of the research is informational. Once it is out you would get the benefit for free. Then come back when it is out and when I am using it. I thought Stewardism doesn't have a concept of intellectual property. It doesn't. That's why I can use the tech without paying royalties But you are saying that if you use it, then Red has a right to live there. That's not about intellectual property rights. That is for her being an intellectual contributor to local Stewardship. Each location would rank how much that contribution mattered. Something is off but I can't pin point it.
Vivi: In Stewardism, who has a right to decide whether the facility can be built? It is not about authority but sustainability. When there are not farmland available for the facility, there is no reason for the researchers to convert the farmland. Their request out of their convenience is unreasonable. To pay for the decrease in sustainability, they would have to pay it back in sustainability, which means coming up with another piece of farmland. If they can't create farmland, then they cannot afford to take away farmland. They are at the mercy of caretakers taking up their slack. What if there is too much farmland? In Stewardism, too much means reducing farmland would increase sustainability. But that's not the case here because there is an alternate site for the facility. What about the commute? They can move near the facility that they will build. I can't find a problem. But the exercise is failing because we couldn't demonstrate what Cleric Protect is.
Evelyn: In conclusion, it seems that we reached an understanding that without adding back farmland, building at the non-farming site is the most sustainable option. The researchers might need to leave the local town to avoid commuting, but their successful result would grant them a right to live in any community their research benefits.
Ledia: It seems the researchers are getting a bad deal. Even their research benefits every community by a small amount, they would end up having not enough credits in each community to get a place to live. Then they are just being exiled. If the research is worthwhile, they should have enough credits to live in many places, because once a community have taken care of caretakers, the remaining living space is prioritized based on total credits, that's when a small benefit to many people counts. But no matter how many total credits they have, they can't display people who are physically taking care of the location day to day. That's the bottom line. Okay. That sounds like a fair tradeoff.
Ivy: I added Cleric Protect at @Skill. But I don't feel that I can recognize anyone to have that skill until it is used. If you see it in use please nominate for recognition.

202204292251|Oracle Speech
April 29, 2022 Friday 10:51 PM
Magic Bakery

What do we feel like doing this weekend? I worry about Forest Bazaar. I think we should investigate.

Casey: I want to do some treasure hunting. Same routine. It shouldn't take long.
Ledia: I'm will Tanya if we Cardinal Quest it.
Evelyn: I have a question about hate crimes... but that can wait. What is your question? Should hate speech be legal?
Tanya: In Hospitalianism, bullying is illegal. What people commonly refer to as hate speech is therefore covered in anti-bullying laws. Where bullying is defined as actions and treatments to make someone feel unwelcomed at a place they can rightfully be. Bullying is considered anti-autonomy because it attacks a person right to be at public places. Therefore, if Elon Musk claims that Twitter is a de facto public town square, then either he protects people from being bullied, or Twitter is not to be treated as a public town square. Hospitalianism allows people to create sub-environments where people are hostile to each other as long as the public is not forced to participate.
Zoey: Hmmm... bullying is legal in private settings? If you are bullied in a private setting and you do not leave, then it is considered a mutual interaction. If you are prevented from leaving then it is imprisonment, which is anti-autonomy and illegal. Ok.
Tanya: Evelyn, did that answer your question? I'm relieved. 😊 Then what is free speech in Hospitalianism?
Tanya: Publicly legal speech does not include those that harm autonomy of others, unless it is done to protect autonomy in response to oppressions. There is no Hospitalian law that says every thing spoken is protected. And remember that Hospitalianism is an Oracle based world view. Words are the most powerful things, as spoken by Oracles. Tanya receives Then there is a Ministry of Truth? No, Oracle work is a service. Anyone can practice it. The medium and channels are open for anyone.

202205011236|Forest Bazaar Quest
May 1, 2022 Sunday 12:36 PM
Forest Bazaar

This is Tanya calling for players for Forest Bazaar Quest. Takers please report to the quest channel. I'll join. And me. I hope I can help. I'll join. Since nothing else is going on... So, what is the quest.

Tanya: Last month April 2nd, Evelyn asked about the area crystal of the Bazaar after seeing that another crystal scroll has spell we didn't plan to include. I decided that it was irrelevant and asked her to move on. I am asking the heroes for a double check on whether those magic spells were in fact necessary.
Ledia: How did you tell that those spells were irrelevant the first time? As you many know, the new Deer Crossing statue crystals combines the magic spells of statues from two other regions: A and B. The Forest Bazaar spells came from region A. And we did not include the magic spells about the Bazaar from region B crystal. The question is, should those region B spells be included in Deer Crossing?
Zoey: I think we should know what those spells do. I don't get it. If they weren't there in the first place. Why do we need to know what they do? That's like saying Puppy A was living in House A, when we move from house A to House D, we moved everything from A for the Puppy. Why do we need to know what is in House B? That was my logic. If that logic is correct, then it is correct that the items remaining in House B are unnecessary. The quest is to confirm what were left in House B. It may seem unnecessary. But that's why it is double-checking. I think it is better to verify. If somehow we were wrong, then there will be a huge spawn point left unsealed. 😅 I just want to play something, I'm fine if it is fun. Do we agree with Zoey's plant to find the purpose of those spells? If so, let's teleport to Cat Island. It's official! That island is called Cat Island! XD
🕰️ [12:56 PM] 🕰️
Cat Island
Evelyn: CUTE!!! 😍
Zoey: In case we can't show the map, the Cat Island is on the opposite side across the sea of World Tree. It has the shape of a cat reaching for another island, the Yarn Island. By the way, I took a sight-seeing map so we could mark on it. Zoey gains 1 EXP. I know we normally don't announce when someone gets EXP. But I think we should do that for Cardinal Quest when we play it like this. I already got one EXP for calling for a party. Just to be clear, I won't get EXP if I just take another map right? No, we only need one. You get EXP for making progress for the quest. According to the old notes, the spells in questions are at booths 60, 62, and 69. Are we splitting up or going together? Let's go together. Protect. Evelyn casts Protect and gains 1 EXP. I'll stop announcing when everyone has gotten EXP. I want to try on the first one. May I see the map? @StarTree, could you show the area map of the other region where we took spells from? The dog island map? There is no dog island! XD For the sake of this quest let's call that the Dog Island.
StarTree: Here it is! Ledia, what are you checking? I am checking whether they share any monster type. That's not possible because a region can only have one crystal. It is possible because if a region starts to get cat island monsters, then it will need spells from cat island crystal. Then you might see it listed on both field monster guides. Is that possible? 🤔 It is possible, but very rare, almost never or factually never happened. Ledia compares the monster lists and finds no overlap. Ledia gains 1 EXP.
Evelyn: I know this is probably a detour, but I have a question... 😅 If you look at the dates when the crystals were applied, you see that somehow they go back and forth between the years. The Cat crystal is applied in 2019 and 2021. The Dog crystal is applied in 2019 and 2020. That's not what date when it was applied. That's the date the region was incorporated. The Cat crystal was first applied in 2020 to those 6 regions. The Dog crystal was first applied in 2019 for 9 regions, then in 2020 unapplied in two of them. Thank you for explaining. 😖
Sasha: I am just going to look at booth 69 directly and see what it does. If we are lucky, then we can tell right away whether it is relevant. Sasha opens the spell section for node 69. Sasha gains 1 EXP.
Cardinal: 36 furball monsters has appeared around Sasha. I look at the first one closest to me. What do I see? You see that the first furball is drifting toward a light pole. What do I see about the light pole? You see that the light pole is a scratch pole.
Sasha: I judge spell 69 is irrelevant because Deer Crossing doesn't have scratch poles. Very convincing. Any objection? I agree. I don't want to decide just yet. Let's see the next spell. Sasha opens Section 62. There are 3 spells. I open the first one. 41 foxtail monsters appeared around the party, waving and beating on the ground. 😅 Foxtail is common but I don't think Deer Crossing has this attraction. What spell did we take from this crystal? 😅 We took Wisp Circle and Rock Golem spells. Let's see the second one. You see a spell that normally provides ladder for climbing is disabled at all but one region. Presumably because the cats can climb by themselves? Are we checking or are we just convincing ourselves that they are irrelevant? How do we know instead of guessing? We know that there are cats here. But these spells are still about the Bazaar. What is your point? Other dog places have bazaars too. And they don't have these spells. We are just confirming what we already know. But how are we confirming? It seems to me that we are just making up explanations to support our pre conception that we don't need them.
Tanya: I discovered that the Deer Crossing crystal already has Spell 69. It is already active by default. I'll take that as the definite answer. We don't care because there is no difference. That's reassuring! 😃 Tanya closes the case for Spell 69. Can we say the same about Page 62 spells? The spells on page 62 are also in Deer Crossing crystal. Same as Page 60. All of those spells are already in Deer Crossing crystal. But the cat crystal activates them, the dog crystal does not. Then we are back to the same conclusion. Since the previous dog region crystal do not activate them, therefore we don't need to activate them for Deer Crossing. But we found that if they are needed, we could just activate them. That's reassuring. 🙂 How do we know that Deer Crossing is more like a dog island and not the cat island? We were told to use Dog Island as the reference. But Dog Island didn't Wisp Circle and Rock Golem spells. Hmm... So for Wisp Circle and Rock Golem you copied from Cat island. But Cat Island's Bazaar activates more spells. Correct. Logically we would ignore those differences because we came only for Wisp Circle and Rock Golem. IDK XD We now know that cat island's bazaar has a scratch pole. That is not at dog island. If we can tie those function to the scratch pole, then it should be a second way to confirm that they are not needed. I can connect spell 69 and the last spell of 62 to the scratch pole. I can't think of anything further we could do about it. Then are we done with this quest? @Evelyn, @Tanya?
Tanya: I am convinced that even if we are wrong, the risk is much lower because it is easy to activate them if needed. So I will close this quest. Thank you for coming.

202205011742|Front Desk
May 1, 2022 Sunday 5:42 PM
Magic Bakery HQ

There are only six guild quests remaining. Can we finish one of them today? @Cardinal, roll please. "Implement front desk at Magic Bakery HQ"

LRRH: I think at the minimum, we need to have a page that greets the viewer and introduce them to the purpose and function of the blog. Where should that be?
Ivy: It should be at the top page bar and at the sidebar.
Vivi: I want it to be called "About" and replace the "Home" tap. I don't like how the Home tap jumps to another website without warning.
StarTree: The About page is now shown at the front page and at sidebar!
LRRH: What else should be on the About Page?
Ledia: This About page is very different from the original front desk. The original front desk was interactive. The viewer could click on options as they talk to Arcacia.
Tanya: I think it is quicker if we just have a site map point to the best things we have.
Tanya: We need a link to Seed of Peace. A link to Seed of Peace is now added at About! Wouldn't a site map duplicate the Links section at the side bar? I don't think the chapters in the side bar is a good list of where our good contents are. Then what are the good contents? I think currently only Seed of Peace has the good content. Magic Bakery blogger is like our lounge where we hang out. It is irrelevant to someone not in the guild.
LRRH: Do we agree that Seed of Peace has our best content?
Vivi: Make the link more prominent. Make a banner.
Tanya: I don't think we should show all discussions. We should somehow show only the best.
Evelyn: Should we each post our thoughts about peacemaking? I think that is an interesting idea, but I am hoping for something shorter, like a summary.

During World War II, aircrafts take heavy casualty, returning aircrafts were riddled with bullet holes from anti-aircraft guns. However, adding armor to the whole plane would make them too heavy. Where should armor be prioritized?

Tanya: ... This is too famous. (Spoiler alert) Let's see what others think! I also know the answer, but I think you could have asked it better. It was too wordy and weird. I am listening for improvements! I think you can shorten the second part to "But the engineers didn't reinforce the wing armor, why?" The wording has changed! (Original: During World War II, aircrafts take heavy casualty, and those returned to the field were riddled with bullet holes. By looking at where the bullet holes were, the engineers figured out how to better protect the aircrafts from enemy fire. What did they do? I wonder who doesn't know this. Let me ask others. That's survivorbias. Put the armor where there aren't bullet holes. Fact checked. Next please. Congratulations! Everyone wins!

In 1938, a radio drama on Martian attack caused nationwide panic as many mistook the drama as real news. However one group was not fooled. Who were they?

P4: Were they friends of the Martians? Cute !! 😍 Very cute! But not the reason! Robert: The producers? I feel like this is a trick one again. Not anyone who already knows! Casey: It can't be people working with the space agency or the military, right? that would be too obvious. No they were not! P4's answer was closer than you think! 44: The ones that didn't have radios? They tuned in and listened to the show, but they immediately knew that it was just a story! Who were they? 44: Were they scientists? Here is a possibly helpful hint: those people don't have jobs! 44: Where they kids? Yes, but why? 44: They read the book about Martian attack story? The kids recognized the storyteller's voice from kids shows! Doesn't this mean one has to know that the storyteller narrated kids shows too? I'd like to file a complaint. Hmm... I couldn't fact check this. I couldn't confirm that Orson Welles had regular children show. One more please.

In 1993, a man who was not suicidal ran into a glass plane window on the 24th floor and fell to his death. Why?

Is this real? 😖 It is real. And we should keep this valuable lesson...! Ledia: Was the building on fire? 😖🙏 The build was fine and he was not threatened in any way! Sasha: Was he on drugs? He was not! But he was over-confident! Zoey: Was he a stun man? He was not, but that was very close! What was he trying to do? Casey: Was he trying to jump to the next building? He was not. He could see that there was nothing outside the window! Ledia: Was he trying to bounce off the window? He was trying to demonstrate how strong the window glass was but the window frame gave out! Congratulations! Fact checked... Could we not use the heart icon for this puzzle? 😖 👌

202205020010|Anonymous Voting
May 2, 2022 Monday 12:10 AM
Freedom Plaza

What is a correct protocol for online anonymous voting that would support choice democracy? How do you make online anonymous voting trustworthy and auditable?

Evelyn: We know how anonymous voting works in real life. Is it that different if it is online? 🤔 In real life, anonymous voting doesn't mean that you don't know who the voters are. You may know who they are, so you also know the total number of voters. When they vote, each voter gets a serialized but shuffled ballot. Each voter keeps their receipt with the serial number that they don't need to show anyone. Then the votes are counted by a computer and the result of all ballots are displayed. Everyone can see what each serial number voted, therefore, if they want they may tally the vote themselves. Since each person can verify that the display is showing their own vote correctly. If no one objects, they can assume that all votes are counted correctly. And the result is that everyone can see how each serialized voter voted, but not know which person each serial number represent, yet they can trust that there are no extra voter and no ballot is ignored.
Ledia: Wouldn't that expose everyone's address?
Evelyn: If a voter needs to be a local resident to be eligible, then on the voter's profile, they could self-declare why they are eligible, and have other voters witness or endorse their truthfulness.
Ledia: What if some fraudulent voters form a ring that endorses each other?
Ivy: I think an algorithm can detect those reference loops, and give a rating of isolation in general.
Ledia: How do you recover if a hack hijacks your account so you can't change your vote?
Evelyn: Since you have the physical receipt, you can prove that you are the voter. 😅
Ledia: But if you do so, people will know what you voted from the record. Then you as the victim is no longer anonymous. Then I don't know. 😖
Ivy: They way it can work is that the system just keeps track and display the voter serial numbers that object their own results. Unless the number of objections would affect the outcome, nothing needs to be done.
Ledia: How do you object the result of another voter when you believe that they have falsified their eligibility declaration?
Ivy: Accusations about the identity and eligibility of voters would be done at the open roster section. That is not anonymous. That's all the questions I could think of. @Zoey, could you make a post at Seed of Peace about this method? Okay. I'll put it in the task list.

Evelyn: Some time ago 3B drew my better self, which looks like me but older. I hope that I am on the right path to be wiser so I could help more people. What's up with this format? You're not using the chatroom. You're directly talking on the page. I was just trying to jog down my thoughts as I go through the recipe. I also know this is a little strange, but I thought maybe people reading it would want to know what others were thinking when they read it...? 😖 I think it is a really nice idea, but if you don't use the calendar... we would miss out on this conversation. @StarTree, could you stitch this back to the calendar? Will do! Evelyn, sorry for interrupting your exercise. The way JQuery can work is that once StarTree makes a tag, clicking on the bubble would query all experience comments like the ones you started writing. Then it will show up on the calendar and here. Thank you for explaining! 🙏 Arcacia thanks Evelyn for being the first person to cook along! Evelyn is now recognized as First Assistant Chef!

Seeing that the Carrot Farm has been neglected for almost four months, Evelyn decided to help Arcacia at her farm! Where she decided to jog down her thoughts as she went along with the cooking! To help others see the storyline, please continue posting at the calendar! New tags will be made so that they are also shown at the Carrot Farm!

Zoey: We are re-inventing overlay comments! XD
Ledia: I said it there and I'll say it again. I think that made it much more interesting. Maybe we should all go through the training and post our comments.
LRRH: That is a promising idea. Should we bump @Carrot up a tier? I think @Carrot is Tier 2 worthy. I could make room by moving @Makeover to Tier 3. @StarTree, please make that change. @Carrot is now a Tier 2 Quest, @Makeover Tier 3!
Ledia: I am really excited to learn more about what each of our better self is. I am a ranger for sure XD And we should all go through it, it is like peacemaker boot camp. That's what we have been missing.
Evelyn: I am happy that we are suddenly interested in @Carrot. I hope that we will go through it together. 😊 Ledia gives Evelyn kudos for discovering something interesting and important that we can do together.

202205031940|Abortion
May 3, 2022 Tuesday 7:40 PM
Arsenal Court

This topic is as current as it gets. The US supreme court will be deciding whether abortion violates the US Constitution. For this thread, we are not trying to tell whether it violates US Constitution, but what Stewardism, Hospitalianism, or Arcacianism, or your belief, says about it.

Black: I think one of the bottom lineis that forcing someone to take care of a dependent would violate the carer's autonomy. This means society can't force someone to remain pregnant.
Ledia: But can they kill it? I think that is the question. And if they can't, that could be another bottom line. My intuition is that a person has no rights to kill an unborn if someone else is willing to take custody. If no one is willing or able to take custody, then the carrier may choose to abort. The situation would be the same regarding someone on life-support. If no one else is willing to sustain the life-support, the current support may choose to end their support.
LRRH: I'm going to say the easy answer first. In Arcacianism, helping someone give birth and taking care of their kids are credit worthy.
Ledia: What about helping someone get an abortion? Helping the unborn become independent is credit worthy. I can't tell about abortion.
Tanya: In Arcacianism, helping is only defined when the parties agree. We don't know what the unborn is thinking. So a doctor helping someone gets an abortion would not qualify for Arcacian credits. But a doctor who helps a terminally ill patient commit suicide would.
Zoey: Hold on, wouldn't that mean Paladins don't get Arcacian credits for fighting intruders? The intruders don't agree to be resisted.
Fina: In Stewardism, you have a right to fight back and protect each other. We don't care about Arcacian credits. Then in Stewardism, does a person have a right to fight for the unborn? How about I just tell you what happens if someone doesn't want to carry a baby in Stewardism? If you don't want to carry a baby, you ask if someone else wants it instead. If so, we do a teleport transfer. If no one wants to have it, then you may kill it because no one can force anyone to take care of anything. I thought Stewardism would make people clean up their own mess. If you pollute then you lose your right to partake. You lose your share of the world. If you can't stop polluting you can be killed. What if there is no teleport transfer? You can't force a person to go through childbirth. That is their choice.
Zoey: If I am in a dragon's grip, wouldn't Stewardism allow anyone to attack the dragon to save me? Even when doing so would mean forcing the dragon to release? Not if you are sucking the dragon's blood like a leech. I hope that we don't go further in that direction... 😖 But if you have a parasite, others don't have a right to attack you to save it, or force you to be its host, no? If you neglect that, you have no rights to kill germs or predators. If you have the right to kill them, then why do you need to ask if someone would take it? Actually you would if you can identify that the predator is something special. Otherwise, if it is a common predator, you don't need to ask. You can assume that if someone wants them as pets they could just go get their own. But in that case, it would mean that it is not the law that you need to ask if someone wants it. You could choose not to. It is not a law. You could just do it without telling anyone. In that case would you say abortion is a right? If you would classify an unborn to be the same as a parasite, then you would, right? It is one way to put that. Yes. The carrier may protect themself, that is part of their self-care. Does it matter whether they created the unborn? It doesn't sound right if you could create something with feelings then kill it. Then you are saying that if you made something evil you can't kill it by yourself? A good being would not demand to be born. It would let the carrier decide. Otherwise it is a slaver, that is evil. Anything the demands to be nourished is violating the provider's autonomy. Therefore the provider may reciprocate by violating their autonomy. Everyone basically starts Evil if you believe that the unborn *demands* to be born. Otherwise, you agree that the unborn only *hopes* to be born but lets the mother decides. So, in either case, the mother can decide. That's somewhat compelling. But brutal. So if you believe that your unborn is kind, and the technology is there for it to be transferred, then you would ask if someone else wants it. If you believe that it is evil, you have the evidence and the right to kill it. No one else has the evidence or a right to tell you that it is not evil. What if your mother says she felt that you were evil but chose to give birth anyway. So if you believe that the baby you carry is evil but not give birth, then you don't deserve to be born? But she did choose to give birth. She may blame herself. Can she kill you now? For what? If she believes that she should have exercised her right to kill something evil, then why would she stop me for doing what she wished to do. I would be her redemption. But reciprocation would allow her to kill you, right? But I am born and no longer a parasite. If I am trying to kill a parasite, others cannot reciprocate unless I am also a parasite. I feel that there is a loophole if you can't hold someone accountable for what they did.
Tanya: I think a grown person is practically a new person compared to when they did not have free will. That doesn't change my question. If your life was spared, and later you decide not to spare someone else's life. Do others have a right to take your life now, knowing that in the same situation you would not have spared your own life? In Hospitalianism, the answer is no. There was no deception when they spared you at first. There was no contract that you need to save someone else's life in the future. Even if there is such contract, in Hospitalianism it is not enforceable because that would violate your free will. What about reciprocation? Reciprocation just says you may treat others the way they treat others. If I don't spare the life of someone evil, then you don't need to spare me if I am evil. But if I am not being evil and I am not being a dependent, you don't have a situation to choose not to spare me. But can people travel back in time to the moment where you were being spared and change their mind? That's a huge can of worms. Traveling back in time to change a timeline would cause huge collateral damages. You could however create a branch. But I hope we stay on the topic of abortion. Okay then. What is the Hospitalian view on abortion?
Tanya: In Hospitalianism, each country is allowed to decide whether it permits abortion. Country territory is adjusted according to migration. So you are saying, If a country legalizes slavery, then the Hospitalian Knights may intervene and free the slaves. But when a woman tries to get an abortion, the Hospitalian Knights cannot intervene ? Correct. Why is slavery an oppression, but abortion is not? Forced pregnancy is slavery, and oppression. If a country forbids abortion and forbids pregnant women from leaving to get an abortion, the Hospitalian Knights can intervene. Clarification: The Hospitalian Knights can intervene if a country keeps anyone from leaving. It has nothing to do with abortion. But in the case of abortion, the woman is leaving in order to kill someone. Gladiatorial countries are legal as long as the participants are willing. It is not illegal to try to leave a country to kill someone. Paladins do that all the time. But it is legal for a country to have a border that keeps killers out. A murderer cannot be prevented from exiting a border, but they can be hunted down if they are trying to hunt innocent targets. So is abortion a right or not? In the typical meaning of the word, no. It is something that each country is allowed to decide. A person has a right to leave their country. Leaving is a viable choice in Hospitalianism because the borders are adjusted with net migration. There will be communities that allow abortion and those that do not. Both types may legally exist in Hospitalianism. It is illegal to force a community to allow or disallow abortion. What about the unborn's right to leave the custody of the mother? The Hospitalian Knights do not assume that the unborn wants to leave. Therefore intrusion is not justified. You are saying that even if you know that the mother wants to kill the unborn, you cannot assume that the unborn doesn't want to be killed? I said leaving. We can assume that the unborn doesn't want to be killed. We can't assume that the unborn wants to leave. The Hospitalian Knights can't enter a country to extract people who do not want to leave. But the natural progression is that the baby will come out. That doesn't mean that the baby wants to come out. You could interpret that as the women's body wants it out I think it is more natural to argue that the unborn wants to be born. 😅 Why? I think it is more natural to argue that the unborn wants to be taken care of. Even if it was born, it demands attention and nourishment. It behaves like a little tyrant and terrorist. That is the exact type of people Hospitalian Laws were designed to eliminate. It was only by the mercy and tolerance of others that such tyrants are allowed to stay put. Parasites... terrorists... 😖 In Hospitalianism, a citizen does not have a default right to be taken care of. But they have a right to leave and go to another country that offers more amenities and liberties. Therefore, if the Hospitalian Knights were to allow to stop people from having abortions, then those who want to have an abortion would have nowhere to go to counter enslavement by the unborn. It all comes down to who is enslaving whom in the mother-unborn relationship. I don't think there is any dispute that it is the unborn who is enslaving the mother. Hospitalianism allows countries to make their appeal and attract immigrants. The baby is the slave driver... 😖
Tanya: Anyone wants to elaborate on what Arcacianism thinks about abortion? I don't think Arcacianism says much about it. I think it would reach the same conclusion as Hospitalianism. If you see an unborn as a parasite, then you would let a doctor help the mother get rid of it, and also help anyone who wants to be the unborn's carrier. If you are the mother and don't want the unborn, but someone else wants to carrier it, then in Arcacianism, you would let them help by carrying it. It would be against Arcacian value to kill it instead if someone offer to help. Ledia receives In this whole thread only Ledia got the award XD
Ledia: I guess Red fell short of pointing out that abortion is not a right in Arcacianism when someone could help. Can we say that in Arcacianism, a person does not have a right to refuse help? Helping and being helped are choices. Arcacianism is a guideline, not about rights. Not acting according to Arcacian value doesn't mean that you are violating someone's rights.

Anyone has any wish they want to make?

Tanya: I think we don't have time to make wishes. Arsenal is getting out of control.
Evelyn: Is it okay if I wish that Arsenal will be easier than we expect? 😅
Black: I wish that it is less like gambling.
Ledia: What do you mean by gambling? We don't set the deadlines, but we are expected to deliver by the deadlines. But I thought they did ask for estimations. The estimations are unrealistic. It would be more honest if instead of promising a deadline, we simply reflect an expected completion date and give status reports.
LRRH: Do you want a different quest? Yes. Wouldn't it help if you know you are on track? But we don't have time to map it out. And I think if you map it out, you would just see that it can't be done. It is, "Do you want to spend a few days mapping out the future and delay what you need to do now?" There is no time left for my autonomy to decide what to do.
Ledia: But IF we map it out and it looks doable, then there won't be anxiety everyday. Correct? If it shows that it is doable then yes, it would be reassuring.
Ledia: Tanya, could you make a quick and simple map? I can make a highly inaccurate map. Let's start with that.
Tanya: The current deadline of Arsenal is June 17, which is about 30 weekdays away. With 47 spawn points, we need to seal 1.6 spawn points per day. But we don't even have 30 weekdays. We have about 20 left if we also try to do the Pylon quest. So it is 2.4 spawn points we need to seal per weekday. I think our actual speed is way lower than that. Maybe a little less than 0.5 spawn points per day. @StarTree, can you fact check that?
StarTree: According to the field log, Deer Crossing took 340 hours for 18 spawn points, that is 0.42 spawn points per day! Tanya is pretty accurate. 😃 But 0.42 per day means we need 112 days. But we only have 20 days. StarTree, could you re-calculate with only the time for the first statue? Then it took 288 hours, which is 0.5 spawn points per day! That's still 94 days instead of 20 days. In terms of weekdays, that is more than 3 months behind. Is this reassuring?
Sylvia: I thought the spawn points in the gem mines would be easier to seal. We don't know that for sure because we have not done them. But we know that some of them are difficult. If all of those spawn points are gone, is the rest doable? 18 spawn points are outside the mines, so 36 days! But not all of them need Crystal work. We are getting more and more back to the realm of wishful thinking. The aggregated average includes the time we needed to work on non Crystal works. So the current estimate is that even if there is a gem expert handling all the gem spawn points, we are still off by 16 days. Not to mention that the hours StarTree got are solid hours, not turnaround time. That's the time we need if we only work on Arsenal.
Tanya: So if we look at the rough estimate, it says that we can't make it. What can we do?
Zoey: It seems that Cardinal Quest needs to be Tier 1 again, and all other quests should be Tier 3. I think we can get a more accurate estimate if start doing it. Evelyn prays for Easy Mode. Evelyn receives We need help on this. Are we keeping Pylon quest? Are we dropping it? Let's wait for the meeting tomorrow.

Pylon Quest looking for member. Previously, we estimated that our speed is 1 spawn point per 16 hours, and we could not finish sealing Arsenal. The Hospitalian Knight is committed to seal the Jewel Market, and may help on sealing the mines. But we still need to take care of the Pylon Quest south of Fort Arsenal. Pylon Quest is estimated to take 8 days. That is the situation. Friendly reminder that weekly status report is due! BRB.

Ledia: What's the plan for Pylon Quest?
Tanya: We will still use the field log to log subquests. Anyone is free to do the part they can do. Is it okay if I do easy subquests? That's up to you.
Zoey: I'm going to do what I know first. Mapping things out.
Evelyn: I'll ask sages about the history of the old pylon crystals. I found something unusual. 😅 There were three old pylon crystal and we are adding a new one. However, two older crystals are different from the newer third one. Should the one we add now be similar to the older 2 or the newer third? I believe the newer third is capable of acting like the older two by command. So we will create based on the newer third. Hospitalian Knights already arranged reagents for the newer type. Okay.

P4: Playing music.🎻 Our best music for the violin is Twinkle Light Tavern / Fort Arsenal. Agreed. Best music for singing is North Shore. Evelyn's vibrato is coming along. North Shore is the easiest for practice. 😊 I call foul on...
Zoey: Praising. I was praising.
Ledia: Giving people time, attention, and patience.
Vivi: Then how about practical advices?
Evelyn: And understanding. I just realized that I haven't given a suggestion. 😅
Fina: Treating others as nice as you treat yourself. 🍲
StarTree: Being accommodating! 🦽 StarTree comes to tell you that this post needs only two more participants to break the record of most participants! I'm calling for help then! XD
Natalie: Helping people. 😃 One more. XD Hey hey hey! What's going on? The prompt is what do you do with your infinite love?
Mikela: Make life exciting for everyone! ... Mikela said what 3B was going to say. That's OKAY! There are plenty more answers!!
3B: Make life memorable. 🎨 Evelyn thanks 3B for starting it all. I thought Red started it. But you had the dream. You started Chapter 0. There were a lot more before Chapter 0. Let's not go too deep into the history or else some cute girl will be confused about her age.
James: Being there and be part of history. ☀️
Ivy: Helping in the background. This is actually a hard question. It gets harder the longer you wait.
Black: Sharing. Share what you know. 📖 Very appropriate.
Arcacia: Do the impossible! 😉 Arcacia speaks! XD That's completely normal! I think that's about everyone I would expect to be around to answer. Going Once...! Going Twice...!
Sylvia: Changing yourself. 🐉 19 XD
StarTree: This post has broken the previous record of 15 as the post with the most participants! Evelyn thanks everyone for participating.

Can I make a section for detective puzzles?

Casey: Wouldn't that be part of Puzzles? I think Red wants Puzzle Time to be more family oriented. But detective puzzles have to do mostly with people getting murdered. 😅 That is Evelyn trying to say "How about we don't have that section?" but not knowing how to say it. But we already got a deck of puzzles. We already have boxes of similar puzzles, and you got even more.🤷 But these are shorter and faster. How about we try one first? Okay. This one is about mass murder of hundreds of people across a few states by cyanide poisoning. In the end, the murderer was found to be one person. The puzzle was to guess what the victims had in common, and why and how the murder did it. I hope that we would do more healthy puzzles. I agree. What if someone tries to do that against us? Wouldn't it be better if we know what people can do? You mean this whole deck of cards each have a different way to... 😖 Supposedly. We are talking about Crack the Case (1993). How about we just read all the answers. If the purpose is just to learn the possibilities. But that would be a waste, since we can't play it. I don't think we want to play it. I'm offering to just read all of them, then move on to something we would rather play. Okay. I am reading too. Can't just have Tanya knows everything.

202205112100|Capitalism
May 11, 2022 Wednesday 9:00 PM
Arsenal Court

What is a good place to present debates and arguments? The Albatross was the designated place, but Seed of Peace is so flowery. The content doesn't seem to fit. If the content won't fit, should it not be presented, or should it be presented elsewhere?

Evelyn: I think Seed of Peace still needs a definition of Capitalism. Hopefully one that is more mainstream. 😅 I don't think there is a peaceful definition of capitalism.
LRRH: Can we start by defining what an unregulated market is? An unregulated market is a market free from control outside the decisions of the market participants, meaning the buyers and sellers. And what is the range of regulations in that context? The regulations include who may participate, the prices, what can be sold, what people may possess, where, when and how a trade may happen. Is it correct that in an unregulated market, a person can sell themself? That is correct.
Zoey: Objection. Why did you say that market regulation includes what people may possess? Possession is different from trading. If market regulation does not include what a person may possess, what do you want to call the type of regulation that defines what a person may possess? Property Laws. Then according to you, an unregulated market could exist within a society with property laws. Correct? Correct. And the said property law could define that a person owns themself as their property, but says nothing about whether they may sell it, correct? Correct. So if the property law does not define a person as a piece of property, then even in an unregulated market it cannot be traded. In an unregulated market, a person can attempt to trade anything, including things they do not possess. It is up to the buyer buying it. It ignores possession laws. What do you mean? It means that if I just write a deed for Magic Bakery, I can try to sell it. And people can try to buy it. Whether Magic Bakery lets the buyer controls it is a separate matter. An unregulated market allows that transaction to take place. It is a buyer be ware situation. A transaction doesn't imply that the buyer will get what they think they will get. ... 🤔 That sounds about right.
Tanya: For example, when Red encounters someone who doesn't realize that an unregulated market implies people can be sold, she could link to Albatross, which will do the explanation. That is the intended use of the Albatross. The question is, can Seed of Peace handle such content? Let me add the definition of unregulated market first. Okay. Done. Back to the question of where could Red link to that would explain what an unregulated market implies. Can you imagine how that content would be okay? You will pick a picture for it? I think I will pick the picture of dirt. Just give me the argument and I will post it. Okay.
Tanya: An unregulated market implies a person may sell themself to a willing buyer. Once that happens, Capitalism allows the owner to control all aspects of the sold person, and gains ownership of everything they make including their offspring. That's what can happen. But now you have to define Capitalism. I would define that to include this meaning: the owner of a means of production owns the product. But this is just one ideology of capitalism. That's enough for what matters.
Evelyn: I have a question: Why are we trying to tell people about this? People should know how dangerous their concepts are when they try to promote it. People who wants capitalism with an unregulated market opens a quick way to slavery. Actually I would think an unregulated is part of the ideologies of capitalism. So capitalism by itself opens a quick way to slavery. You still need the original person who is willing to be a slave. But I see how that can happen so I can't argue against it. That would be part of the ingredients: An unregulated market, and a person willing to sell themself. Since we are talking about childbirth, we are really talking about an unregulated market, plus a woman willing to sell herself given her circumstance. Capitalism only needs these two to start a bloodline of slavery, and it can create the second ingredient with the first because the parents automatically owns their kids in an unregulated market under capitalism. As I said I think capitalism by itself already implies it wants an unregulated market. I think that is optional. And just because capitalism wants it, it doesn't mean that it would get it. An unregulated market only exists when someone fights off all the entities trying to regulate it. But if that condition happens, the rest can happen.
LRRH: Would you say that capitalism needs two ingredients for slavery: An unregulated market, and either someone willing to sell themself, or to claim their child as property? Correct. Then people will counter saying that communism only needs one ingredient for slavery: a regulated market with a rule for slavery. That's not directly communism, that is authoritarianism. It takes more force to have a regulated market than an unregulated market. It is easier to get an unregulated market than an regulated market. To get an unregulated market, all you need to do is to hide. Then there is a question of how a communistic society makes decision to legislate slavery Then you need to define communism. Hold on. Let me define capitalism first. O...K... It sounds really negative. But I think that is what it means. Instead of saying "it is not immoral to...", I think it is better to say "... shall not be forbidden." You might phrase that as a right in capitalism. Okay. We are not done here. Let's continue later.

May 12, 2022 Thursday 10:13 PM
Ageless Forest

Yesterday, we got to the concept where we might be able to evaluate an ideology's affinity to slavery. Capitalism only needs two ingredients: an unregulated market, and a person who is willing to sell themself of their child to slavery. What about the others?

Fina: For Stewardism, it takes someone trying to enslave another person for the original slave driver to be enslaved. But as soon as the original slave driver stops, the permit ends. And it doesn't pass from one generation to the next, since a slavery contract is not enforceable.
Tanya: Same in Hospitalianism. Slavery contract is not enforceable because a person is always allowed to leave with their belonging and share of property. What about Arcacianism?
Evelyn: I think helping a slave break free is helping, but helping someone enslave is not. In Arcacianism it is harder to have someone in desperation to sell themself.
Ledia: Then it seems that the ingredients of slavery is the same for all ideologies, the difference is in how likely each ideology can get that ingredient. Correct. Then are we comparing how strongly each ideology forces a person to serve another? Is being ranked at the top good or bad? I think it is more intuitive if good is on top. Then it becomes some type of freedom ranking. I would prefer phrasing that as freedom or peace ranking instead. 🙂 That's something I can easily post at Seed of Peace.
Tanya: In such ranking, would imperialism be at or among the bottom? Let's start with that at the bottom. After defining it. Imperialism is a concept that people exist to serve an emperor, who has a right to rule the world by conquest. I can add that.
Zoey: Let's rank them as we add them. I need to make another page. What should the title be? Peace ranking. Inside that page you could have a section of ranking of ideology. Okay. I ended up adding the ranking in the definition page for now. I'll split it when we have more definitions. Then please add Stewardism to the definition page. Can't have capitalism sitting at the top of the scale.
Tanya: I want to add populism between Stewardism and Capitalism. I define populism as a moral view of deciding based on majority rule. It allows subjugation of the minority, but not the other way around. I would rank it above capitalism because capitalism allows a minority to subjugate a majority. And it is ranked below Stewardism because Stewardism doesn't allow subjugation except is reciprocation. Okay.
Tanya: Next up from populism would be constitution democracy. I would define that as having a type of democracy that asserts some rights as basic human rights, but may also include many instances where majority rule is used without any compensation to the minority. Done.
Tanya: Next I am going to say Hospitalianism is at the top, above Stewardism. I define Hospitalianism as constitutional choice democracy applied in an international setting which uses ongoing contest of hospitality to setting international disputes. I rank it above stewardism because stewardism doesn't have a predictable way to settle disputes. No contest. Done.
Tanya: I can't tell whether Arcacianism is above or below Hospitalianism. We can save that for next time.

202205141503|Ranks vs Tiers
May 14, 2022 Saturday 3:03 PM
Magic Bakery

Here is the idea: Instead of having a Tier system indicating what quests are important, why don't we list them with a rank system based on how many times it progresses in a month? For example, at the start of a month, every quest resets to rank 0. Then when someone does something for it, it upgrades to rank 1 and so on. We would set a max, such as rank 5.

Evelyn: If I see that I would want every quest to be at least rank 1. 😅 That's up to you.
Tanya: What is the reason for the change? The Tier system looks more authoritarian even if we let people do whatever quest they want. It is like, "How dare you rank my quest lower?" A rank system would just reflect what people work on. I see.
LRRH: We are already half way in May. So every quest that has been updated start at Rank 1 now? @StarTree can you show us the current rank?
StarTree: Here is the result: Level 4: Seed. Level 3: Cardinal. Level 2: Carrot, Concept, Music. Level 1: Arena, Board, Book, Freedom, Guild, Happy, Manga, Paladin, Puzzle, Skill, Treasure, Vacation, Whale, Wish. Level 0: Makeover! Yes, this makes me want to do something for Mira Mira. 😅 Nothing wrong with that. I thought the purpose of the Tier system was so that we can concentrate on important quests. But you can choose to work on the one you believe is the most important. I want to know what the guild decides to be important. 😅 I see.
Tanya: Evelyn, how about if you don't know what is important, you start a quest and ask for input? That was what I was doing when I asked for weekend plans. Okay. I can do that. I thought Tanya would be more against this.
Tanya: I have thought about it and concluded that Arcacianism is more peaceful than Hospitalianism because Hospitalianism is based on Coexistence, while Arcacianism goes a step further to promote Cooperation. Tanya receives I was reminded of that ranking because 3B was posting her manga. She drew about it more than a year ago. So now I am more in favor of having less directedness and having more flexibility. Tanya gives kudos to 3B and Fina for having defined that scale a long time ago.
LRRH: It seems no one is against it, so @StarTree please make the change starting tomorrow? What is the actual heading of each rank level? Can we use "Rank" but start with Rank D up to Rank A? Then if a quest made significant progress it will be awarded Rank S. StarTree's mind is blown! If you do that I would want to update every quest so that every quest gets an A. 😅 I think that is fine. It is Arcacian.
Ledia: So does Mira starts at Rank D? Or is it unranked? I think untouched in the month should be "unranked". StarTree understands!
Sasha: Hold on. If no update is unranked, then it means it takes 80 updates for the 20 quests for all of them to be Rank A. That's almost 3 updates per day. Yes. Rank A would be weekly update on average. So weekly update for all quests. But an update can be a small one.
Casey: Sasha, what are you worrying about? You don't even have a quest. But if you say I can get an A then it makes me want to have a quest and get an A. Arcacianism at work XD 🤣
LRRH: @StarTree, could you apply the ranking starting today. I think it is better if we see it now while we are discussing. Do we still care how long ago a quest was last updated? Am I listing them in alphabetical order in each rank? Let's start with alphabetical order. It's done! I think it looks better than before. I think it looks more like a quest board now. 😊 Actually I never look at that because it wasn't really readable. I just look at the google sheet XD Now it looks better.
Evelyn: I wish that the quests on the list are clickable, so that when I click on it I can see what was last updated. And it's done! Whoa, I was going to say you can't sort links because the anchor goes before the actual text. StarTree cheated by adding a comment tag in front! Clever. 👍

Why did an airline add a fictitious name to its passenger list?

Evelyn: I hope this is not about cheating insurance of tax. 😅 It is for a good cause! 44: Is it for the Air Marshall? Tanya: Did they do it to protect someone, as a decoy? The name is not of anyone famous. It is a fictitious name that doesn't correspond to a real person people might know. Ledia: Could it be that if an airline is shown to be too empty, it might invite people to hijack? But why would you need an actual name? Who would see the passenger list? Amelia: Only one name? So they cannot over book? It was done intentionally to fight a crime, you all are very close! Yes, just one name. So the fictitious name IS for a criminal to see? Yes, what would the criminal do after seeing that name? 44: Claiming to be that person? Not exactly. 44: Steal personal information? You're almost there! What information are they stealing? What do they steal it for? 44: Sell fake tickets? Natalie: Their address! Burglarize their house while they are away! It was a sting operation in respond to a series of burglaries! All the victims flew the same airline, where a worker tipped a burglar on which address might be gone for vacation! Congratulations!

To determine who may inherit the kingdom, an ancient Irish king told his two sons to row their boat a mile from shore. The one who touched shore first would inherit the kingdom. When the elder son was closing in, the younger son was still 20 yards behind. How did the younger son win in the end?

Zoey: If I were me I would just shoot an arrow! XD I meant at the shore. In case it wasn't obvious. Ledia: Did he swim the rest of the way? You two are thinking too nice! Zoey: Too nice...? He didn't shoot the brother did he? XD The young brother did not hurt the elder one! But it didn't end without bloodshed! Evelyn: ✋😖 Congratulations! That's the correct answer! Metal. Wait, what? WHAT...?! The younger brother used a sword so his hand could touch first! Can't fact check this. It is unconfirmed. Possible legend.

What quest do you want to work on? Do you need help?

LRRH: Guild quest only has 6 quests left. But they are all hard. I think "add bakery item to HQ post" would be the easiest. Should we change the picture to that of a pretzel? Okay. Let's do that first. Now HQ can be part of the menu items. 😊
🕰️ [8:15 PM] 🕰️
Ivy: For @Skill, let's add concepts from Atomic Habit. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.youtube.com/embed/PZ7lDrwYdZc","desc":"📺"}
Ivy: For those who watched it, what skills are there?
Ledia: Habit building?
Ivy: What archetype should it be? Would that be Cleric? When someone trying to break a bad habit, it would be like de-cursing.
Sasha: Habit building should be a Magician skill. Magician skills due to desires, cues, attraction, and rewards.
Ivy: I agree with Sasha more. I think it should be a Magician skill. Ledia and Sasha are recognized to have the skill Identify Skill.
Zoey: I feel that we are applying some of the concepts in Atomic Habit already. For example, our quest list is a cue. We are starting small, so even a small action counts for updating a quest. The way we use quests match the concept of defining systems instead of goals.
Ivy: In that case, what habit do we want to build? What habit do we want to break?
Zoey: Too much social media XD Especially during the week.
Ivy: What is the current habit?
LRRH: We go to Twitter as part of daily morning news routine. If someone replies, we tend to respond. It is not clear whether responding makes any difference. But we are trying to make a difference, that's why we are building Albatross. So I think going to Twitter is a good habit, but doing it for too long is a bad habit.
Ivy: Okay. Let's focus on breaking the habit of going to Twitter for too long. Is it fair to say that if you need to refresh, then you have been on it for too long? That seems fair. What habit should it trigger when you need to refresh? How about copying a bookmark from Twitter back to Guild ? The bookmark list should be empty, because those are all links that should be processed in the guild. In that case, why not switch the order? Start Twitter by importing the bookmarks. If you are done importing the bookmarks from the previous day, then you browse. And in order to promote Albatross, you don't reply unless there is an Albatross link. I am applying "make it difficult" And if you don't follow the habit, Sasha may nuke you and you are KO'ed for the day. I like the KO part. Ok. Sasha is recognized as the enforcer. I enlist @StarTree to monitor when Red is nukable. Roger!
StarTree: Special Announcement: The guild is only two quest away from having updated ALL quests within a week! Let's do it! I like how StarTree makes these announcements when we are very close to an achievement. This should be a magician skill: Achievement Identification. And StarTree has it. StarTree is now recognized to have the Magician Skill Achievement Identification. Wee~~!

This is for the Wish Quest. What reward do you want for your good work?

Evelyn: I think good work is self-rewarding because having done a good work means people are happy and not worrying.
Sasha: When people have nothing to worry about then we can play. But I want to somehow say play should be part of the routine. There should be some benefits to playing, maybe it keeps people's mind open? Sasha, you made that wish already? You wished that we would make a family friendly detective game section. Yes I know. But no one is going to participate because it is a campaign.
Black: How about making it an efficiency habit detective? If we are not going to deal with actual crimes, and want to solve some relevant puzzles, then daily efficiency would be the puzzle we need to solve. We just need to make something 1% better each time. It is a promising idea. Black is recognized for the Alchemist Skill Kaizen.
Sasha: But I don't want that section to be Whale Clinic. I want it to be Magic Bakery Detectives. That's fine. You can make a section. So, what inefficiency do you need wisdom from the Great Detective Sasha?
Black: Our last fail was from... Tanya. She answered a question using outdated information. So she added a comment at the outdated document saying it was outdated. Then isn't that solved?
Tanya: No it is not solved. That was just one document I marked. Next time if someone asks about a different document, that document we look at from experience could be outdated. We are missing a step to check for the latest document. So you want an algorithm upgrade. Or you could call that a protocol. I think we have a section for protocols in the field notes, although it is not very populated. Maybe we need something easier to use. Why don't we start something at the field notes first? We can use that space to organize our thoughts. When we see enough what is involved, then we can make it easier to use. Then let's do that first. The notes already has a section about runes. But I think we need another section corresponding to a "Help Desk" protocol. The guide is about what to do if someone comes to our help desk and asks about runes. Adding an Inquiries Guide section. Should I add how it failed before? I think logging failures make it more personal and memorable. Tanya is hard working and has good work ethics. Okay it is added. Tanya thanks Black, Evelyn, LRRH and Sasha for helping on improvements.
Tanya: This reminds me that I had a dream this morning about a puzzle. I'll post it tomorrow.
Sasha: In the meantime I am still thinking about what I want for Magic Bakery Detectives section. I might start that tomorrow. If you start a new section tomorrow, my puzzle might be relevant. But it should be easy to link to it with JQuery. Then I will strongly consider starting it tomorrow.

Yesterday I dreamed of a puzzle regarding an efficiency tradeoff between the number of people doing a task, the time it takes for them to complete it, and the risk of error. The three attributes depend on many factor such as abilities of the people involved and difficulty of the task. It is an Oracle class problem. But this is the puzzle:
Tanya: If a person working on a task alone can finish it task in 2 days, and working with a buddy can finish in 1.5 days. At what error rate should the task be assigned to two people?

Zoey: Very interesting what kind of things Tanya dreams about. Arcacia was the one asking that in the dream. Tanya receives Arcacian Quest received XD
Ledia: When a person makes an error, does it create another task to be solved? For now let's say yes. An error creates another task that needs 2 days to "solve" alone. This sounds entirely a math problem. It is, so there should be definite answers we may use as a rough guideline. If the error rate is 1 then the task would never end XD What if the error chance is 50%? Then... it adds up to ... 4 days to actually finish a task on average. If you assign the task to two people, is the error rate the same or better? You would think that it is less likely to have an error. Let's say the error rate will reduce to 25% of normal. So: 12.5%. Then it takes about 1.7 days to complete. It pays to not make mistakes. But we are not comparing 4 days to 1.7 days, because if you assign two people to the same task, you are forgoing having them working on two tasks. So we are comparing 4 days versus 3.4 days. Which is still better. Correct.
Ivy: For those interested in the math, it is infinite geometric series. I see. So... are we done with this puzzle? Almost. According to this math, there are only three important variables: 1) T = Time multiplier of session completion with a buddy, and; 2) S = The error rate when solo. 3) B = The multiplier in error rate with a buddy. So I want to see a graph showing when having a buddy is better. The graph will be 3D. ...
Ledia: Then I have a question: Suppose having a buddy does not reduce the session time, at what error rates would it still make sense to have a buddy? Hey, this sounds like the game mechanics of Robinson Crusoe! Then we are getting the educational benefit without playing the game. What if it has more interesting lessons? Then we can find out by solving real puzzles. Compelling reasoning. Okay. Magic Bakery Detectives: Solving puzzles in the game of real life.
Tanya: The condition equation is when having a buddy takes less over all time than soloing: 2T/(1-SB) < 1/(1-S). Solving for B gives: B < (1+2TS-2T)/S. When T=1, it becomes B < 2 - (1/S). This means if the solo error rate is not more than 0.5, it won't make sense to assign a buddy if it won't make each session shorter. So if your skill is Rank B or above for the task, then you could solo it. Or to say it the other way around: If having someone tag along won't help you complete the task earlier, then you are at least Rank B at the task. If you want to derive the skill level of a person, you just need to check their error rate. Error rate of 0.5 means Rank B. 0.25 means Rank A.
Evelyn: What is our error rates? The error rate can be calculated based on the amount of time we think we can finish a task Ts, and the total time we actually take to finish the task Tt = Ts/(1-S). For example, if we think we can finish in 0.5 days, but we actually takes 2 days, then our error rate is S = (Tt-Ts)/Tt = 0.75. We are rank C (?) 😖 If we want to know our proficiency, we need to start making prediction of when we would be done for each task. Proficiency P = Ts / Tt.
Sasha: Suppose we are Rank C, then it would worth having a buddy as long as we could reduce errors by 1/3, even if it takes the same time. Correct. But more precisely: B < (1+2TS-2T)/S. When S=0.75, B < (4-2T)/3
Sasha: But is this math helpful? Say if you are stuck at a task, you can always ask for help first. People who can't help could simply not reply. Then, as long as you ask for help early, you don't need to know what the statistics are. You should already be doing the best you can. I agree with Sasha that asking first is generally good. We have cases where it saves us a lot of time. Heuristics over planning.
Sasha: If you want to tackle the task assignment problem from the view of figuring out how many people you need to assign, there will be too many variables you don't know. Instead, you could have broken it into small pieces and let everyone work on it at once. And call for help or release your task for other to do when you are stuck. Our focus should not be in predicting how long it takes to do quests, but to help each other becoming more proficient at whatever quest they choose to do. If we all become more proficient, then we don't care about complicated math on how to assign teams. We could all solo the quests. Sasha receives Word. I think the heuristic and the math are both important. The math will help us adjust the heuristics if we have the data.
Ledia: But is this our general strategy? That we want to focus on identifying where we lack proficiency and try to improve? Atomic Habits did say we should be content even if we assign the "right number" of people for a quest and the quest is completed as expected. It postulates that if we focus on getting better, we will get quests completed. If the math is not helpful, should we end this and switch to another quest? I think this quest helped us confirm our strategy of completing quests: we should aim to skill up so we can solo the quests, but at the same time we break down quests into soloable pieces. And we are Rank A at a task if we complete it leaving no spawn point unsealed. Actually that would be Rank S. You can still make 25% error at Rank A. Sorry about my math. 😖 I'll keep the math in mind. Discussion is adjourned. Let's move on to other quests.
🔑
Sasha: In conclusion, we started with a question on when more people are needed for a quest, and ended up with a solution of always breaking a quest into soloable pieces and help each other solo. By focusing on ourselves becoming more proficient, we could eliminate the overhead of managing or predicting who shall do what. The Magic Bakery Detectives conclude.

How do you deal with disappointments? I am asking this as part of the Cooking with Arcacia training at chapter 11. This is part of step 2 in the recipe.

Evelyn: I think in most cases, I could still try again if I fail. So my method would be (e) I try to improve until I am satisfied.
Sasha: For puzzles, if you fail you can't try again because you already know the answer. In those cases I would do (b). I learn why I didn't get it before move on to the next one, so that I don't waste the next puzzle.
Zoey: Lowering expectation XD But it is not exactly (a) because I am not talking about setting a lower expectation for the next target. I'm talking about when I am disappointed, I convince myself that my expectation should be lower. ... Unless I knew I could do better then I try again immediately.
Tanya: I would add (f) I correct my error and try again. If I am disappointed, it is because there is something I knew I could do but did not do. Or it was just bad luck? I don't feel disappointed if it was just due to luck. Hmm... 🤔 Then what do you feel instead? Nothing. I guess I am mostly (f) also.
Ledia: I don't really remember the last time I feel disappointed. To me, if the result is bad, it just tells you what your proficiency is. If it is a skill I want to upgrade, then I will do what it takes to upgrade it regardless. I guess I will add (g) I don't get disappointed.
Casey: It might sound irresponsible but I would just move on and do something else (d). Changes are the next time I need to do it again I would have learned how to do it better while I was doing something else. So I don't worry about specifically trying to get good at something right away. Just work on what you are good at first and come back to it. Take it easy. Easy Casey. 🤷
Evelyn: Does P4 want to answer?
P4: I think I'm like Ledia. I don't normally feel disappointed. I wonder if that is a Paladin attitude.
Natalie: I am disappointed all the time! 😃 I just learn and do better next time! High five! ✋
Sylvia: What about making changes so you still win with your ability? What does that mean? Say you can't hit the target from where you are. Instead of keep trying where you are, just move closer or get other advantages. Use wits to your advantage. I added (h) for you. Hmm... Didn't Atomic Habit say the opposite? 🤔 It didn't say a person shouldn't be goal oriented. It only postulates that a person who is system oriented may still succeed. Foul! Ivy didn't respond to the original question. There's no rule saying I must response to the prompt. But then you are off-topic! I was responding to Zoey's question. By bad then! XD (a). Your calling foul goes off-topic more than my response to Zoey. I think we all agree that we should stay on topic. If someone is off topic we could just ask them, like "Ivy, would you like to share what you do when you are disappointed?" Evelyn is now recognized for applying Cleric skill Protect. Evelyn receives Ivy receives 👏 Were you trolling me? It was unplanned. I just point out what I think is wrong because it I don't say it as it happen I'll forget about it. Is it too off topic if I ask what proficient Evelyn's Cleric Protect is? Let's finish this training session first while we are at it. 😅 Hold on! Completely on-topic: @Ivy, why did you say (a)? You didn't just pick the first one did you? XD
Ivy: I picked (a) because that is part of my adjustment process. If I am disappointed them my expectation of myself is too high. So I lower it for next time. Thank you for confirming. Evelyn thanks everyone for sharing.
LRRH: I got one more new answer!
LRRH: When I am disappointed, I award myself with a new recognition. One time I was trying to explain something to someone, but they say I was spamming. So I awarded myself the Create Spam skill. Fact checked! I saw that one! XD LRRH is recognized for Magician Skill "If it ain't fun, change it." LRRH adds "(h) I make the situation funny and rewarding." We started with 5 methods and now we have 9. It is fun and rewarding training together. 😊

If everything we do for the guild are extra credits, how many extra credits do you want today? This is part of Step 2 in Cooking with Arcacia training at chapter 11.

Casey: One is enough, easy does it.
Zoey: I feel like we shouldn't ask this question. We just said extra credit is optional, if you ask about it, it sounds like it is required XD There are days when I don't do anything XD Evelyn added the "none" option. Thank you XD
Evelyn: For me that would be 4 since if you sing with your heart you get at least 4 points. And I want to sing every day. 😊
Ledia: @StarTree, what is my average credit per day this month so far? It is 5.14! I get four points just for exercise... Although I don't do that every day... If I am more consistent, plus other extra credits I should be able to get points daily.
Tanya: If you sing also that would be 8 points per day. I'm not really interested in singing. I see. @StarTree, what is Tanya's average in May? It is 9.79! Tanya doesn't even have anything that she does every day! XD I am conserving for emergencies. We have a lot of emergencies then XD
Zoey: In case it isn't Tanya, @StarTree, who gets the most credits on average in May? These are the top ten: 9.79 Tanya, 8.79 Evelyn, 7.50 Sylvia, 6.79 P4, 6.07 StarTree, 6.00 Zoey, 5.50 LRRH, 5.14 Ledia, 4.71 V, 4.36 Arcacia! Good job, everyone! XD And congratulations that every quest has been updated within a week!

Mira Mira Magic Makeover

I want to change @Makeover to @Mira or @Mirror. What do you think? No change in anything else in the charter.

Tanya: Why do you want to change it? Sasha logged that as a suggestion. And I think @Mira or @Mirror has more character to it. Your charter: "Promote peace by celebrating diversity and individuality of peacemakers through character design and customization." I'm going to define Arcadism based on that as Rank 1 Peaceful Ideology for Seed of Peace. You are welcome.
Evelyn: I prefer @Mirror because normally a place for makeover has a mirror. That is if @Makeover sounds too blunt.
Casey: Out of curiosity, what is "Mira"? That was just the original name of the store. Since you are Ledia, I guess that would be a reason to change it. I wasn't talking about changing the store name. Just the charter name. 😅 🤷
Sasha: I suggested the name change because @Makeover looks so... ugly. It should be more artsy and creative. I can see that.
Zoey: I think @Mirror doesn't convey change, because if you look into a mirror, it is just the same you. @Mirror would be boring. On the other hand I think @Mira is too meaningless because it doesn't mean anything. XD
LRRH: "Mira" in "Mira Mira Magic Makeover" was shortened from "Miracle". It was part of the spell. LRRH receives Ooo.. is it like Moe Moe Kyun? XD I didn't know that. I thought it was just someone's name. Apparently someone knows something way back. ** Little Red Riding Hood hides **
Ledia: @StarTree, could you change it to @Mira? It's done! Please update the charter! Okay, thank you.

Rome

How did an archaeologist, while in Britain, deduce that the Romans drove their chariots on the left side of the road?

Tanya: Was there a law against driving on the right side of the road? Casey: Did the chariots have a passenger seat or a "door" on the left side? Evelyn: Were street signs and markings on the left side of the roads? Zoey: Was there a painting or sculpture about it? Sasha: Did the Romans build some of the roads in Britain? No document was involved, the archaeologist examined physical evidence (but not actual chariots or its parts) from an archaeological site in Britain. What was the function of the site? Sasha: Was the site a toll booth? It was not! Here is a hint: The archaeologist could deduce which side of the road chariots used to enter versus exit the site by examining the road! P4: Was is where chariots were born? Baby chariots all come out from the same side? Cute!! 😍 P4 is recognized to be Super Cute. Chariots entered and exited the site, but their tracks were different! What was the difference? What was the site? Zoey: It was a site where people go drinking, they left wobbly! XD Hint: The site was somewhat remote from towns. It was similar to Fort Arsenal. Casey: Did they make cannons there? On the side leaving they were dragging cannons out? That's extremely close, it was about the weight, but not weapons! Sylvia: It was a mine. Sylvia receives Congratulations! It was a quarry! Chariots exiting were heavier and left deeper tracks! Fact checked! XD

202205190916|Best Note-taking
May 19, 2022 Thursday 9:16 AM
Harbor

Do you take notes? How does it help you? How do you do it? I am asking this as part of @Whale to share effective note-taking ideas.

Black: The method I want to share is our field troubleshooting notes. It is a huge document that contains countermeasures and information on many situations. It currently has five section: Alarms, Features, References, Tasks, Special. In the alarm section, topics are listed alphabetically by alarm codes. Under each are the countermeasures and history of occurrence.
Black: While that organization is convenient for computer issues because the computer will give an alarm code, in real life there is no alarm code. If real life gives an alarm code then I can apply it to real life. I think if we simply start making a real life troubleshooting document, we could organize it into categories as we go.
Ivy: I think part of the problem is that since life doesn't give alarm codes, you won't even know if something is wrong and needs to be addressed. You need some kind of diagnostics sequence. It could be a checklist of situations that should be alarming.
Casey: If something is not working, people will complain. You don't need to go out of the way to check. For example, we just fixed the air conditioner. If I were to categorize it, it would be under Appliances or AC. So for a real life document, since there are no actual alarm code, we would only have the Features section where you group the issues under topics.
Black: Should Harbor host such troubleshooting information for the guild? Should it be a document or just html?
Zoey: I still want my side panel where I could just click click click. XD
Ivy: I told you earlier that you could just use Word in web view, then you could shrink it to the size you want, and you could edit as you use it. For the same document, you could open it twice using New Window. You can have a small one on the side and a big one as the main. But it is difficult to make links in a Word document. It's not. It is just a bookmark.
Black: So, should we start with a document for the guild? Yes. Because there will be information you can't post online. But you'll need that information if you were to use it. Then how do you share it? The part that you share would be a subset. Couldn't we just password protect it or use a secret menu? No one needs to know that information. That is just junk for a visitor. It is junk for them, not for us. They don't have to click on it. This is about anonymity. If you want to talk about it, please make a new topic.
Ledia: I've an idea, for local information that matters, we could just keep it physically at a local place. You mean like making post-it next to the AC? Hmm... yes, or with permanent marker? Then if you want to check something you need to physically go to places and open closets. I think just having a central document with everything is better. Then you can see and check everything without moving. You're right.
Black: If we make such document, what should it be called? Master Notes, or just "Master". And put it at the root of the directory. Then when something breaks you can say "Go check the Master" XD
Casey: Right now since we already put appliance receipts in a folder, the notes about them are in the same folder. If we make a master, do we delete the notes in the folders? This is like Ledia's idea, but virtual.
Evelyn: I think each person has a difference preference on how they take notes. So the person who wants everything in a Master could copy information elsewhere there, without deleting the file in the folder.
Sasha: I feel like at this point you are trying to improve something that does not have a demand for it to be improved. You don't have the volume of issues you need to deal with to justify a change.
Tanya: But it bothers me that there is no Master document at the root of our local directory explaining where things are or how the directory is organized. That I agree.
LRRH: @StarTree, please make a Master document at the root and add an @Guild task to gather and merge information from other documents scattered about.
StarTree: It's done! Now the root has two documents: Master, which is a copy of "Info" in a subdirectory, and "Dashboard" which is a spreadsheet that no one really uses! We replaced using Dashboard because we have Google Sheet Guild Log. Then should Master be a Google Doc? Google Doc viewing options are horrible. But it is online, and I don't think we need to view it that often. But bookmarking is easier on Google Doc.
Sasha: I oppose to moving data around in general. I think it is okay to share our preferences an experience on how to take notes. But if you start talking about "how we shall standardize note taking for the guild", then it is a waste of time. Just let each person who will use notes choose and take their own notes. But if you want your notes to help someone else, wouldn't you want to do it in a way that is convenient to others? XD
Tanya: @StarTree, how much space do we have at clouds? We used 1 out of 15 GB at Google Drive and 2 out of 5 GB at OneDrive! The size of our local guild data is more than 200 GB. You aren't removing any process by moving some of it online. I see.
Black: I think that is enough exploring today on this topic. I think if the information can benefit others, my preference is to share it here. If for some reason it cannot be shared, then the person with the information decides where to put it. I think in that case it would be helpful enough for them to leave a message here (blogger) on where they put that. Then, the first point of information seeking could be here at blogger, so that we could aim to share information helpful for others. I agree with that conclusion. I want to see this site becoming more organized and helpful, not just to us but to others. Black thanks the participants for their valuable feedbacks.

202205190916|Day Planner
May 21, 2022 Saturday 8:16 AM
Magic Detectives

Based on the ideas in the previous discussion on note-taking, Sasha presents the Web View Word Day Planner. It is a word document with a table with daily plans, which includes what we plan to do in future days, and what we did in previous days.
Sasha: More about the features in the following.

Sasha: Reverse Chronological order This is kept to reduce scrolling. The future is at the top. The idea is to keep it short and keep a pool of tasks to be pulled.
Sasha: Pull Bin The pull bin of task can have a due date and a total estimate of task hours. By not planning exactly what day they will happen, we don't waste time tweaking a plan that will change.
Sasha: Dependencies column This is kept to highlight things we can't control.
Sasha: Web View Word This is new, based on Ivy's suggestion. The Web View format allows the view to be resized easily. Excel and OneNote cannot do this. Without Excel, we don't have the mean to automatically add how many hours are planned for each day. But that math is simple. Just do it in your head. And I don't use Outlook for this planner because this word format is easier to edit and share
Sasha: Multi Quest This is new, based on the need to combine the planners of different quest lines. The quest title is shown first, followed by its sub quests and hour estimate, ordered by the order they were completed. So within each day, the entries were categorized by quest, and each task is in forward chronological order. But the overall planner is in reverse order.
Sasha: I think that was pretty much it for now.
Tanya: Good work, Sasha. That's it? Where is the resistance? Where is the drama? But it is helpful, and if I may I want to add links to places there. XD I think it looks elegant and clear. Elegantly that we are behind schedule. 😅 I don't see the "Bin of tasks". It will be there after adding Fort Arsenal, that 90 day or something estimate. Let's aim to use it and continue today, adding Arsenal sub quests. We still have Pylon quest. We have about 4 overlapping quests plus guild quest.
Casey: Should we add Guild Quests on the same planner? I would say no, because that would just add overhead. We should show Cardinal Quests only. If we did it in spreadsheet we could just filter them out. To do that you would need to add a tag on each row to be filtered. That is annoying. XD I can think about it, but for now I want to try this and see how well it works, for at least a week or so. Casey, when we actually do a task, we are still using the Field Log to track the time. We are not losing any history data for analysis. What Sasha is doing is a simpler and more summarized version, a big picture version for planning. But even in outfield log there is a section for planning future tasks, we just don't use it for some reason. I use it. But for reminders of routine tasks. I think that is convenient for tasks that are recurrent. I think we can use it more, and tweak that so that it can also be good for Big Picture Planning. On that list you already have the list of quests. And if you need to move a task to a different day, you could just change the date. No copy and paste. Then you just sort it. That is compelling. Why did we stop using it? When I use the field log, I view it in with latest task at the bottom. That future section is completely out of sight. 😅
StarTree: StarTree updates those dates in the future section every day! Sometimes StarTree wonders whether that is necessary...!
Casey: I'm not trying to bother anyone, but there is something very similar in function in our field log. It might only do 80% what the additional planner can do, but if we use that, we don't need to manage yet another document that we need to update daily. Yet another compelling reason. Sasha hoped for resistance and her @Wish is granted! XD @LRRH
Casey: I'm not asking people to decide right now, just think about it and maybe try upgrading the field log to do what Sasha's document can do. We know Sasha's document can't replace field log, but the field log could grow toward Sasha's vision of what we need. I am not posing a competition. Casey receives Red is now reading, and all seems well.
Sasha: I am all for trying things and making real improvement instead of discussing. I totally agree with Casey's plan. Just do both and copy the strength of each other. I copied the previous way and made small changes, someone can copy mine and make changes. It is all good as long as we are not forcing people to make the changes for them. You make changes by yourself and present it so others can build on your ideas. If I sounded like I wanted to stop something, I didn't mean to. I was just explaining why I didn't use Excel. I wasn't telling others not to use Excel. I think that is very clear and I do like the simplicity even though I will continue to use field log for what I use it for. I think the day planner has the summary I need for creating weekly report without looking at Field Log. This helps me. Again, Good Job, Sasha.
Sasha: Since we got several new ideas from the thread, it is a good time to stop discussing so people can just try the ideas instead. That concludes this briefing, let's move on and try more new ideas. Sasha receives Ooo, my tears. I almost never get Arcacia Award. 😂 Thank you, Sasha. Sasha thanks all plus Arcacia for listening.

202205211340|Two Cookies
May 21, 2022 Saturday 1:40 PM
Magic Bakery

Little Red Riding Hood bakes only plain or chocolate chip cookies. She baked two cookies. At least one of them has chocolate chips. She gave me one and gave the other to my dad. What is the probability that my dad got a chocolate chip cookie? Ivy is paraphrasing a puzzle we found today at a thrift store. This is a Puzzle Time kind of post.

This sounds super tricky. 44: 1/3. Amelia: 1/2. Tanya: 2/3. Could you each explain why?
Amelia: Because knowing that one of them has chocolate chips doesn't tell me anything about the other one.
44: If we know that at least one has chocolate, then the probability that both have chocolate is one-third.
Tanya: The question didn't say what cookie Ivy has. So, the equally probably outcomes are: Both Ivy and James have chocolate cookies, Only Ivy has chocolate cookie, or Only James has chocolate cookie. Before you know what Ivy has, James has 2/3 chance of having a chocolate cookie. But then Ivy also has 2/3 chance of having a chocolate cookie. They don't add up to 1? 🤔 They don't. That is just like saying if there are 10 buckets of hot water, regardless which one you choose, the chance that it is hot will be 100%. Adding them you get 1000%, but that doesn't mean anything. True. So before Ivy or James reveal what cookie they got, each has 2/3 chance of having a chocolate chip cookie. It doesn't matter if Ivy said "Guess what my dad got first." After one of them has revealed what they got, the chance of the other having a chocolate chip cookie is 50%. 1/3 chance would be the answer if the question asks, "What is the chance that both have chocolate chip cookies?"
44: Then why isn't the probability 75%? 44:The possible cookies that Red made are: Choco1, Plain, and Choco2. So the possible outcomes are:
Ivy-Choco1/James-Plain,
Ivy-Choco1/James-Choco2,
Ivy-Choco2/James-Choco1,
Ivy-Plain/James-Choco1.
So 75% of the time Ivy would have a chocolate chip cookie.
Just when I thought I understood it! XD ...
Ledia: We only know that Choco1 exists 100%. Plain and Choco2 share 50% chance of existing. So ... Choco1 is in all four cases, and each case is paired with something that only has 50% chance of existing.
Black: I would argue that Ivy-Choco2/James-Choco1 is invalid if you reveal Ivy's cookie first. Whichever cookie you reveal first is called Choco1. I don't get it. What if Red can make three cookies: Choco, plain, and mint, but only made 2, at least one is not plain. And we ask what is the odds that Ivy does not have a plain cookie if we know at least one is Choco? Then there would be four possibilities same as what 44 said:
Ivy-Choco/James-Plain,
Ivy-Choco/James-Mint,
Ivy-Plain/James-Choco,
Ivy-Mint/James-Choco.
The chance that Ivy would get a non-plain cookie is 75%. No. Then you are missing the cases: Ivy-Mint/James-Plain and Ivy-Plain/James-Mint. Because you said at least one is non-plain, not at least one is Choco. Assuming you also meant all cookies are unique. Right. Then together there are 6 cases, and the odds of getting Non-plain is still 2/3.
Ivy: Do we all agree what the correct answer is? Ivy: Which is 2/3 ? Yes. Yes. Thank you for agreeing. Wait, what? Is that the answer or not? XD 🤣 I can't handle more twists!
Casey: Let me explain... When we found this deck of math puzzles at thrift store, naturally Ivy would take a card out and try it. And when she saw the answer she was MAD. Because the answer was 1/3. Just KO me already XD Zoey is now considered KO'ed. Ivy insisted that the puzzle answer was wrong or the question was worded wrongly. So she wanted confirmation. So 2/3 is correct? That's what it should be, just as Tanya explained. And intuitively, if you know nothing about whether one of the cookies must be choco, the chance would be 50%. So why would knowing that one of them must be choco reduce the chance of it being a choco? And so Ivy bought the puzzle deck in rage. XD So, where is my cookie? Red gives everyone a cookie.

202205220803|Veganism
May 22, 2022 Sunday 8:03 AM
@Concept

For Seed of Peace, I am defining Veganism as a moral view of minimizing harm to sentient beings, which typically translates to having a plant-based diet, opposing animal cruelty and products that made from them.
Tanya: In terms of peace ranking that would be Coexistence. Veganism poses not to hurt others without a belief of mechanism that sentient beings should help each other.
Tanya: In case it isn't obvious, this definition means a person who is a vegan CAN use animal product as long as it was not a result of treating animals as commodity.

Zoey: It matches the definition "the doctrine that man should live without exploiting animals" [Wiki]. I'd take that so Veganism is based on philosophy on avoid harm, not on a dogma on the ingredient. And if you don't know how something was treated, you would normally avoid a commercial product made of them. Since if it is commercialized, the odds are animals are being exploited. Agreed. And Posted. 👍
Tanya: For the missing ideologies for Cooperative rank, I propose "Quest Society" and Chivalrism. But I'll save the discussion for next time. Tanya receives
Fina: That part of Seed of Peace is growing nicely. I nominate @Seed to be S ranked for this month. Fina receives

202205221551|Arsenal Plans
May 22, 2022 Sunday 3:51 PM
Fort Arsenal

Yesterday, I tried making changes to Field Log to do be more similar to Sasha's planner but the result was not good. Both lists are huge lists of dates. If they are on the same sheet, even with split window, the result is inconvenient. If we keep them separate as a new window, the Word looks cleaner.

Casey: Then I'll try to do something. I don't think you need to keep that data on the same tab. It could be on a different tab.
Black: I think we should just try Sasha's for a week and concentrate on completing the tasks instead of upgrading the management interface.
Tanya: But I do want to first get a number for Arsenal Quest. We need that even for Sasha's method. I think you can get those numbers from the field log map. Put an hour to estimate everything that is not yet completed. The first step might be to decide which task should be done first, then list all of them on Sasha's list. We can tweak the order later. Okay. I will update the priority column at map.
Tanya: Hospitalian Knights will take over the Jewel Market. So I will put that and all mine locations as lower priority for us. I'll set them to Priority 0.
Casey: I have a suggestion, the priority could double as the number of days it should complete before the due date. Then we can use that to calculate the date when something should be done. That's a good idea. Then I will set all the mine locations and Jewel Market to Due 2 For everything else I'll put Due 7 for now. For anything that requires leyline, let's put Due 14. And everything that needs shipment Due 21. Done.
Tanya: Previously, we estimated that each spawn point at Deer Crossing took us 16 hours to seal. Arsenal has 47. However, the map shows the sub quests, marked by @, we need to do for each spawn point. Then I can make a guess that each @ takes 2 hours and get a possibly closer estimate of remaining load. That turns out to be 422 hours remaining instead of 752. That is 53 days, so the estimated completion date is 7/14. Almost a month behind. 😖 It is more than a month behind because that math assumes we do the quest every day. If we only do quests on 5 of 7 days, then... It gives August 4. I think that is enough estimate for now. Let's put those dates and weights on Sasha's calendar. There are only five dates total and 5 numbers. Done.
Tanya: After some more tweaking, the estimated completion date is 9/19. There are 9 spawn points that might need crafting materials to seal. We need to confirm this week. Let's start with the newest spawn point, Backup Barrier Generator. The task tracker now includes the estimated completion date for Arsenal! 👍 Tanya switches to Quest Channel.
🕰️ [8:17 PM] 🕰️
Casey: I feel like we didn't make a dent trying to reach the backup barrier. It is like a maze down there. I have asked for help.
Evelyn: What else can we do to help decrease the completion date? If I understand correctly, if we don't close four @ signs marked on the map today, the completion date will increase. (?) 😅 There is a factor of 5/7, so we need to close three @ signs to prevent an increase.
Zoey: I'll pick up where I left off exploring the mines.
Sylvia: Are we doing something about the Courthouse? We are running out of space. It was empty when we first got here. 😅 Let's see what we can send back to the archive.
🕰️ [11:26 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: After using Sasha's Planner for a day, I propose to remove the corresponding entries in Field log that are duplicates and less useful. They have always been just getting in the way. I would rather have StarTree manage the planner. I concede.
Black: I think we need to do something about the documentation. Each @ sign there is not worth 2 hours. I think we should focus on completing them instead of just reducing the estimate. Overestimation are less trustworthy and will be ignored. Then I will do many of them quickly. Now the date is down to 9/1. 435 hours remaining. I think the description should take only 1 hour max for each. Then it is down to 8/28, 414 hours. Better.

Blue LED lamp seems to increase my focus and maintain my vision. Is this scientific? Is there harm of using that? The way I use it, the light is aimed at me, not at what I am looking at.

Zoey: Isn't that distracting? I think most of the time I would ignore it. But the overall result is that my vision seems to be more clear after exposing to such light. There is some science saying Blue wavelength prompts the neurology that it is daytime and be alert. But doing that at night would disrupt sleep. Black is recognized for the Alchemist skill Focus.

What does your better self want as a reward? This is in Step 3 of Chapter 11 Carrot Cake Recipe.

Zoey: c) Rest XD I think we are over questing. XD We got the estimated completion date of Arsenal down to July. That was mostly due to a change in estimation method. It is not settled yet.
Sasha: Pixie. Evelyn, Tanya, and Zoey are exhausted. They are considered KO'ed. We can still chat while KO'ed. XD 😅 Should you? I wonder. Don't change the rule, plz XD
Evelyn: By the way, tomorrow there might be a team lunch with other teams at a new restaurant. Looking up the place now... it is a salad bar. That's going to take 1 or 2 hours from our schedule. I think there is no better time to do it since we had just finished Deer Crossing.
Sasha: To reward my self, I want to solve a real life puzzle and help someone. I thought Sasha's reward would be for us to play board game with her. XD That would be for me Sasha, not the better self Sasha. Zoey gives kudos to Sasha for having a better self.
Tanya: I don't know what my better self wants as a reward. Are you posing that for Detective Sasha to solve? Not exactly But may I? You're welcome to. But I may not have any clues for you. Sasha thinks that Tanya wants to snuggle, be treated and stroked like a kid. Basically Tanya wants what P4 gets from Evelyn, but Evelyn is not big enough for her. ... 😅 So instead, Tanya could borrow Red's dog.
LRRH: Did someone call for some furapy? We were just talking. You may always try before you borrow. Little Red Riding Hood summons the big and fluffy Sirius. It is embarrassing. It's not. Zoey snuggles into Sirius.
Zoey: I am glad that I'm a ranger. This feels totally appropriate.XD Everyone can have a big fluffy dog. You may summon it at home if you want. Won't that just mean Sirius can spy on all of us. XD Sirius doesn't talk. It is still strange summoning someone else's dog to snuggling in private. XD Then you can have your own. I need to think about if I want exactly the same or different. I don't want to be a copycat XD Evelyn fell asleep in Sirius...

LRRH: Recognition of that nature should be in HQ or at @Board. Maybe @Board would be a good place because that was a feature in Google Slides board. And @Board doesn't have any actual content right now. I want to see a celebrative section with StarTree. 😊

What could you do if you start coughing from singing?

Evelyn: This was a topic logged last year in September. With a note that "your throat needs rest and hydration." I also used to cough when singing, but in the last few months that has stopped. I think the reason was, as I learned to do lip trills, I ended up singing with less air blowing through my throat. So my throat does not dry up as early. I want to comment by doesn't know one way or the other. XD Good job practicing!
Black: For me I think that it was drinking sparkling water that would hurt my throat if I sing.
Ivy: Are you sure it wasn't just because the temperature was colder? If you sing but never warm up, then you are relying on the ambient temperature. That's possible. But I don't want to experiment with it. They say lip trill is a warm up exercise. 👍 I guess we will see when it is September again.

202205281031|Break-in
May 28, 2022 Saturday 10:31 AM
Front Desk

About a week ago(?), we started adding the telephone section on the side panel. There are a few options. What should happen if someone chooses "Emergency"?

Tanya: What should happen if a visitor chooses any of them?
LRRH: Ideally, we provide actual help. If we can't do that, we provide a relevant story.
Ledia: When was the last time there was an emergency?
James: It was January this year. Someone threatened to break in. So we asked Natalie to help. Now I remembered. What did Natalie do? Normal Paladin procedure would be to contact the person who was alleged to have made the threat that the Paladins are aware of the dispute and hope that the parties can resolve the situation peacefully. So they didn't send anyone over? I didn't ask for it. But if they actually try to break in, it would be an emergency, so I was giving the paladins a heads up. And what happened afterwards? The person making the threat toned down and situation was resolved peacefully. I see.
Zoey: Why did the person want to break in? XD It was a combination of miscommunication, and misuse of technology. They were trying to get a room in the guild house, but didn't response when we offered them to come. Then they said they sent the money using an online service. When we say we didn't receive it, they didn't believe. So they wanted to break in. Sounded desperate. The problem was that that particular online service requires phone registration which was not obvious. It was holding the money without sending it. Eventually we did receive the money, but it took a week instead of what we thought would take minutes. And we sent them back the money. As they were to look for another place. But during the time the service is holding the money, they won't have the fund to pay for another place. That was our concern but not theirs. They had enough money to pay for another place. But they were angry even when we showed them the fine prints that the transfer might take two weeks. Well, what's done is done.
Evelyn: I have no idea that happened. 😖 Would you like to know the next time something like that happens? Yes, please. Evelyn is now part of Magic Bakery Emergency Response Team. I also want to know. Tanya is now part of Magic Bakery Emergency Response Team. Are they any duty for being on that team XD I'm a Herald, I think I need to be on that team regardless XD.
LRRH: There is no duty for being on the team. It just means that if something *worrying* happens, we'll tell you about it. But do we need to keep that a secret? Can I make a post about it? Then everyone would know. If you post inappropriate information we would stop telling you. I don't think I have a record of posting anything inappropriate. 🤔 But are you good at keeping secrets? I think I am good at keeping secrets... 🤔 But no one ever tells you their secrets, do they? I don't think we have many secrets to begin with. 😅 But if you do have a secret, would you tell Zoey about it? Sasha, I think your questioning is unnecessary. Zoey has a record of keeping secrets because she is part of Cardinal Quest. Compelling argument. It's not compelling. If you use that argument, then even I would be trustworthy. XD 🤣 But I'm not asking to be on the team. I'm just laughing. XD
LRRH: The emergency response team will decide if someone else needs to know. See? Being on Cardinal Quest is not enough to establish trust worthiness. I added Evelyn because she has relevant emergency response skills. I added Tanya because she has relevant problem solving skills. I am not adding Zoey yet although she has relevant skill, because I'm not getting the vibe of mental readiness from her. Red is using ESP! XD I'm not complaining. I don't necessarily want to change my 'vibe' just to be on the team.
Tanya: Red doesn't have ESP. Red has hesitation because Sasha confused her. We will sort it out the next time an emergency happens. Which, hopefully never happens. 😅
Evelyn: From yesterday's study group, how about we end with some affirmative thinking?
Evelyn: We are not here to deal with emergencies, but to prevent them from happening. We are a great team and we share ideas of preventative tasks. The next emergency will probably be from Cardinal Quest if we can't seal all the spawn points. We are diligent and we seal spawn points ahead of time. We are legendary and celebrated heroes. We are saving the world and having fun doing so. We use all help we can get and that brings us more help than we hope for. Evelyn receives Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric skill Protect III. We do our best and Arcacia does the rest. Evelyn receives Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric skill Benediction. It makes me jealous that Evelyn doesn't consider sparing her message for another day to get more Arcacian points, since she is already getting it everyday. IKR XD 🤣 😊 Evelyn thanks everyone for being wonderful friends.

May 28, 2022 Saturday 1:46 PM
Fort Arsenal

The projected date of finishing sealing all spawn points is July 27. Arsenal base camp is now calling for heroes to help seal them proactively.

Evelyn: Evelyn is here. 😊
Ledia: Are there like 50 spawn points? Which one are we doing?
Zoey: I'm going to finish where I left off at the barrier backup generator. There are just a few runes left to translate there. XD Let's go together. 😊
🕰️ [3:29 PM] 🕰️
Cardinal: The party arrives at the dungeon under the barrier generator. Is this necessary? I'm almost done with what I'm here for. XD But it wouldn't really be Cardinal Quest if we aren't actually playing it. Zoey concentrates and shoots an arrow against a wraith. The wraith is destroyed. Zoey gains 1 EXP. And it is done here! XD Zoey crosses off 2 hours of work. The remaining hours is now 339.
Sasha: What about the other tasks for this location? Those are not my forte. I think there is something we don't understand about this backup generator. We need to study more.
Cardinal: As Evelyn speaks, she, and only she notices a malicious dark shadow lunging at Zoey. Light arrow. The wraith is destroyed. Evelyn gains 1 EXP. Sorry, I missed it. I think we are potentially missing a lot more. I read Tanya's report back at camp... We can't see what we don't understand. We must understand. So I plan to stay here for awhile and study. What task are you doing? It is spell rehearsal. Tanya allocated 2 hours for it. After that, we should have a better chance completing the sealing confirmation spell. Which is worth another 2 hours. That's sound more like it. More like what? More like she knows what she needs to do. According to Tanya's report, I should have done that first so Zoey would take less time down here. 😖 Anyway, it seems that you know what you are doing so I will head back up. Thank you for checking on us. I'll stay and study also. Does this count as the study group Ivy talked about yesterday? I have no idea. 😅 No, it is different. This one worths more. You get 1 EXP per question you ask an answer. Then I'll stay then. Wait, what?? Why are you so surprised? That's how it has always been in Cardinal Quest. XD Of course I knew! I'm making it dramatic for the reader! She's not. She didn't know. It's because the person answering questions most of the time is Tanya. 😅 How about we all stay for the "quiz" session?
🕰️ [4:22 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: Question 1: According to records, a backup generator could use two mana types to tell if the main generator is down. Does our generator use both mana types?
Casey: It does not. It can only use one of them. I don't know what you want to call it. How would you like to call it? XD It only senses Earth mana. Not air. Casey earns 1 EXP. That means we might need to run an Earth mana leyline to the chamber above. Why didn't you get the one that can use air mana? We saw what others used and just did the same. Hmm... I might be seeing a pattern here. Ignorance. 😖 But we won't be if we start digging and answering the questions.
Tanya: Question 2: Does the main generator above have room for another Earth mana leyline? Possibly. That answer is not good enough. We can check when the chamber above is open next week. That's a better answer. If we connect them, we are actually doing more than the other teams are doing. That's like asking, do we dare to do better than the other team... That's not what I meant. I'm just saying we are doing something extra. I... had a dream last night. Evelyn receives
Evelyn: In my dream, what effort we put into Arsenal is not extra. It is preventative. Wait, have you started using ESP already? XD I tried... 😅 I agree with Evelyn regardless whether there is ESP involved. Fort Arsenal is an important location and we are talking about the barrier. This seems like a low hang fruit even if you believe it is an upgrade. If you act with love you would include those upgrades. If we have the experience that it is a good design, we would recommend it to the other teams. We just lack the experience to make the recommendation now. We need to first prove that it works and is better. Tanya receives You're right. That's the Arcacian way.
Sylvia: There should be room for the leyline because HK will need to expand it for the market. Good call. Then we should confirm that the main crystal can accept the backup generator spell before getting and installing the leyline. I added that task to the planner. Thank you.
Casey: How sure are we that it will work? Should I start looking for suitable materials? But if it doesn't work, we are wasting time looking now. My experience is that adding to the material list is almost always a time saver. Anyway I added. 🤷
Evelyn: Then can we also start the check list? We should define the criteria to determine whether the spawn point is sealed. Agreed. I added a task on the planner to look for the checklist of the other team. I think we should add something... I feel that it might not exist. 😅 Of course you may add more checks.
🕰️ [6:52 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: So... How do we test the backup barrier generator? Do we actually shut down the main generator? 😅 We should do some preliminary tests before the big test. So I've added to the checklist. Is that task considered complete? I would say yes. If we need to update it, we would need to update it 'for free'. Okay. Remaining hours is now 333. Creating the checklist seems an easy way to reduce the hours. Tanya updated the list. The remaining hours is now 340. There was an spawn point that had not estimation. I've just added it. Please don't be discouraged. Are there more unestimated spawn points? XD That was the only one. We are heroes and full of positivity. 😊 Then I'll solo the Howling Circle checklist. That seems super easy. It is not called a checklist. It is called a rehearsal, or mock battle. Simulated battle. I like that. I am soloing it. Ledia soloed the mock fight and earned 1 EXP. The remaining hours is now 338.
Ledia: No way that was worth 2 hours. Then I will update it. The remaining hours is now 319. But as I said in the report, we shouldn't pay too much attention on fixing accuracy issues on the estimation. We should just focus on completing the tasks. It is not called tasks, but sub quests. Subquests. Then I'll solo Millennia Crystal trial. Zoey could not complete the trial but earned 1 EXP.
Zoey: There's something I can't shoot. 🏳️ Let's complete as many trials as we can first. Tanya soloed Owl Forest trial and earned 1 EXP. Evelyn soloed Crystal Archive trials and earned 2 EXP. Zoey soloed Courthouse leyline trial and earned 1 EXP. Casey soloed Ruby Fairy trial and earned 1 EXP.
Ledia: The remaining 12 are harder to solo. I added a flag on something to investigate. Please don't be discouraged. The remaining hours is now 320. I'm out of mana. XD
Tanya: We started today with projected sealing date on July 27. Despite discovering more subquests, now the date is July 23. Good work, everyone. Let's call it a day. Tanya thanks everyone for answering the call.

202205290828|Remote Healing
May 29, 2022 Sunday 8:28 AM
Magic Bakery

Is there anything you wish to happen? This is for Chapter 22, or perhaps also for the telephone.

Evelyn: I want to try remote healing.
Zoey: How far have you gone in ESP study? We only started two days ago. XD But there is no reason not to try it if it could help someone. 😅 That's true, but I don't understand the meditation part. I can't get to the alpha state. I thought being in alpha state just means you are relaxed and positive. Is that all? Then why does it ask for meditation? XD I thought that is for people who are really stressed. Are you serious? We don't need to meditate? 🤔 I don't know for sure. 😅 I just thought that if we are already connected, we can cast the spell without doing anything other than being in Arcacian Aura. You mean the same feeling when you get Arcacian Award? Yes. Evelyn receives But then you need to sing. Actually I can turn it on at will. 😅 😲
Evelyn: It is like using the pedal when you play the piano. When I sing and I don't feel it, I could just "step on the pedal" and create the aura and sustain it throughout the singing. Yes. Then it isn't really an award if you could give it to yourself. XD I don't think Arcacianism is against people rewarding themselves. You are supposed to let your better self manifest and reward yourself. 😅 That's three free points everyday. 🤔 That's three free points for everyone who chooses to connect to the better self each day. Many of us don't do that. 😅 That makes me feel that everyone in the guild should get at least 3 points if they just show up. I think that is a good aim, but no pressure. 😊
Zoey: But if all you need is to flip on the switch and cast the spell, isn't that too easy? There is no cost. 🤔 Why would you want there to be a cost? 😅
LRRH: What is alpha state? It is a brain wave frequency of about 8 to 13 Hz. When people are awake they are normally in the beta state which is 14 to 30 Hz. Umm... correction: Beta State corresponds to being Actively awake. Meaning that you are awake and attending to a task. You are in Alpha state when you are in auto mode. Inattention and daydream while awake are in Alpha state. If you zone out from your sensory perceptions while awake, you are in alpha. Then why the emphasis on meditation? I can zone out anytime I want XD Maybe we don't. 😅
Ivy: I am not entirely convinced when you switch on the Arcacian Aura you are in alpha state. We know the Arcacian Aura can happen while people are attentively doing something. It might be a separate phenomenon. So I won't say they are the same until I measure it with EEG. That I can understand.
Evelyn: So I want to remote heal two people. One has cancer, the other has migraine. I turn on my Arcacian Aura and visualize them healthy and happy... and with hair. Evelyn casts remote healing. Evelyn receives I am not recognizing remote healing as a skill until we get news that it works. Ok. 😊 If they both work then Evelyn would get remote healing rank A? Something like that. Let's wait and see. I feel like when Ivy asked for the study group, she was really asking for test subjects. XD

202205291527|Arsenal Trials
May 29, 2022 Sunday 3:27 PM
Fort Arsenal

This is Tanya resuming Trials at Fort Arsenal. Heroes are welcome to join. This is not an emergency. And this is a routine status report from StarTree: Fort Arsenal: 320 quest hours remaining, projecting completion date is July 24! System check: Online!! Wee~~~!!

Tanya: Tanya now checking on Mines Railway spawn points. Identified two leads to track down. Tanya tracked down the spawn points and reduced quest hours to 317.
Zoey: That's half of the quota we need to complete per day. XD I'll check the ... Reservoir. Zoey completed the trial and reduced quest hours to 315.
Sylvia: I'll take the Tavern. Sylvia completed the trial and reduced quest hours to 314. I can't wait to see that Tavern spawn point. It'll be so colorful like the disco XD
Evelyn: I guess I'll do the Magic Cancellator. Evelyn completed the trial and reduced quest hours to 311.
Ledia: I'll try the Geyser then.
🕰️ [6:19 PM] 🕰️
Ledia completed the trial and reduced quest hours to 305. Ledia is out of mana. Ledia is considered KO'ed.
Ledia: Well, that took a while. P4 sings song of rest. The party regains 1 mana. Ledia is no longer KO'ed. P4 receives
Tanya: What do we feel like doing? Keep going? Stop? @StarTree, status report please.
StarTree: The part completed 15 quest hours today, the projected date is now July 22! Shouldn't 15 hours be more like 3 days instead of just 1? XD We started at July 24 today! It is one hour short of moving the date to July 21! I'm beat for today. I want to unwind XD
Evelyn: Tanya, what might be simple to do? Howling Circle magic circle. We just need to draw it as preparation. I guess I'll do that too. 😅 Evelyn completed the magic circle, but it was not enough to change the completion date. But that was worth an hour... 😖 Did we take too long to do it? XD Was it a rounding issue? Something seems wrong. @StarTree, expand the decimals please. StarTree expands the details. The total is not changing when I change individual status... StarTree forgot to change it back to a formula after trying to tell how many hours are need to move the date! StarTree will fire herself! Evelyn reduced the quest hour to 304 and the completion date to July 21. Please stay, StarTree. I'm sure we all make a lot of mistakes. 😅 I feel that we will keep asking the question of "how many quest hours do we need to complete to reduce the date by 1". StarTree could you automate that answer? Done! StarTree automated the counter. The party is 6 minutes short of reducing the date to July 21. OMG we were right on the edge! XD 😅 That equation has to be wrong. It should be advancing slower than real time. It is missing a factor. StarTree corrected it... again... 🏳️ I think it is correct now. 4 minutes. If we complete another 15 minutes or work, it will say we are 333 minutes away from reducing the date. I can't take this no more XD I think all we should really care is whether we at least finish about 6 hours per day. The clock will keep ticking and "undo" our work. It is too stressful to keep looking at it. I see. So this is a situation where the Heroes shouldn't be told how many hours they need to complete to reduce the date at the end of the day. Even if they put extra effort to complete it, it would immediately expire since they had only barely reached a moving target. StarTree is very sorry. 😭
Sasha: How's going? I guess it's my turn. Now she comes XD I come to update the planner. Naturally I come when you are all done. In a different storyline, this would be when the minor villain comes when the Heroes are already out of mana. It sounds like you are begging for it, so, Pixie.
Cardinal: No one is exhausted at the moment. No one is KO'ed. For the first time it didn't work! XD Tanya thanks the Heroes for their efforts.

What has two heads, two arms, and four legs?

Evelyn: I hope the answer is not conjoined twins. 😖 It is not! And I tried very hard skipping puzzles where someone is hurt and to bring you a puzzle that is patently innocent! Sylvia: A dancing couple? Cute! 😊 That's not the answer but I'd consider that a better answer! Congratulations! You may keep guessing what the original answer was. Is it a living thing? Yes. I've got a "Wonder Woman" asking if it is big and if she had seen it. It is taller than a normal person and most people have seen it, but would not describe it the way the puzzle did! A plant? An animal? It is alive but not an animal. 😱 Is it scary? It is not scary! Does it have eyes? Each head has two eyes! Can all four eyes see things? Yes. 44: Is it mirror? No. Here is a hint: the two heads are not similar at all! Is it cute? It is! Not an animal, not a plant, and it is alive? 🤔 Hint: It is not biologically one single thing! Where does it live? You could find it on a ranch. Does it live in a cage? Not when it has two heads! More hints please. You could see it in parades! Usually. What color is it? It depends on its species. If I have to pick one I would say brown. Amelia: Is it insects? No. Will it die? It will die separately! What do they eat? One is herbivore, the other is not. Amelia: Is it a cowboy? Congratulations! It is a person on horseback!

202205301214|Positivity Time
May 30, 2022 Monday 12:14 PM
Magic Detectives

This week I don't have anything compelling that I'm trying to solve. So I'll just update the counter unless someone has improvement they want to present.

Evelyn: I found that it might be easier to stay in "meditative" state instead of falling asleep by imagining a screen with words a distance away. I'm not sure where this information would go. 😅
Sasha: Is this from your study group thingy? It seems that your study group needs its own chapter.
LRRH: There was a plan for a chapter related to dreaming. I think the study group needs to discuss where those information should go.
Ivy: I think mental wellness topics can go to Evelyn's Garden, chapter 15. I'll consider it after finishing chapter 11. An advantage of JQuery is that you could just post first and worry about where it should go later. That's true and I want to present it in an orderly way like chapter 11. But not in chapter 11.
Sasha: What exactly are you learning from the study group? Affirmation and visualization techniques. It sounds to me they belong to Chapter 20 and the Telephone section "Lost". If you feel lost about your life, then those are techniques that would help you find purpose.
Ivy: I want a walk through style comments on what we read. We post the material and the alleged effects, then we add our comments, fact checks and experience along the way. Similar to the style of chapter 11. Yes that is what I think we should do. But I don't know how to do it without copying everything we read. So it would take time paraphrasing. Unless we find a copy free version. As for adding them to Chapter 20, I am still upgrading the presentation format.
Sasha: I think this is a backburner topic. Just ignore it until you have time for it, and concentrate on finishing what you have now. If it is still relevant by the time you are done with what you are doing, then you will remember to do it.
Zoey: I think it is better to just start with a place where we could put what we learned and build on it. I assume our study group is on-going. After reading this, where would be more we are reading. I don't think we would have time going through each thing we read and turn them into a tutorial like Chapter 11. But we should be able to pick and add the best concept we learned to Chapter 20. Ok. Let's add both to Chapter 20 as Cleric skills.
Evelyn: I added this description: "Affirmation is the use of a positive present tense statement to recruit the power of the subconscious mind toward a desirable outcome. For example, instead of making a wish by saying, "I hope for world peace," an Affirmative statement would be, "I am peacemaker and I am making the world more peaceful everyday." The statement is expressed in present tense and defines the role the speaker wants the subconscious mind to equip itself to perform." Evelyn receives Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric skill Affirmation. Legit. I think visualization is the same as affirmation, but done without using words.
Evelyn: "Visualization is an technique to perform Affirmation using mental images instead of (or in conjunction with) verbal descriptions. To use this technique, one would rehearse or visualize themself performing in the role they affirm themselves to be, associated with the joy, pride, and sense of accomplishment to help direct one's subconscious mind toward such desirable future. To help the subconscious mind remember and accept the goal, it is said visualization (and also affirmation) is more effective when performed in relaxed state of mind when brainwave is at alpha or theta levels." Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric skill Visualization. That's a good summary of what we read without any controversial topics
Black: Just a quick comment or suggestion. I think it is better if good skills are part of the routine. Then you can be sure that you will practice it daily without forgetting.
Evelyn: In the early hours before you get up, your mind would be in theta state even if you aren't trying to meditate. So if we want to fit it in the routine, it would be before Paladin Training. @StarTree, please add to the routine. What should that session be called? How about Positivity Time? It is added! Is it true that if I visualize myself doing Paladin Training, I don't have to actually go? XD 😅 I've just realized that Evelyn is on Every routine except PT! XD I suppose I should join that too. 😖 Baby step, Evelyn, just start with one lap. XD I see Evelyn as a kunoichi. Thank you for the suggestion. I feel fine as a Cleric. 😅
Zoey: Can we change "Positivity Time" to something else? Otherwise its abbreviation is also PT. XD How about Positive Affirmation? How about Super Positive Time? XD I don't think theta state is that exciting. We would be barely conscious. 😅 I am fine with Affirmation Time. We won't be gathering for that. We just do it around the time we wake up and that could be different for everyone. True. 🤔 StarTree doesn't understand what to change it to! Don't worry about it, StarTree. Let's just leave it as is for now. XD A column is now added to daily tracker!
Sasha: By sharing our experience, the guild added a new routine and moves on for more self-improvements to come! Sasha thanks the participants for sharing and helping each other be better.

202205301825|6 hours a day
May 30, 2022 Monday 6:25 PM
Fort Arsenal

I am going to try to do some of the six hours that we are supposed to do each day. So here I go.

Ledia: StarTree could you give a status report? Do you want to only know how many hours the party has done for today? I want just the same one you did yesterday. Fort Arsenal has 304 quest hours remaining with a projected completion date of July 22! Thank you. Ledia thanks StarTree for being a great quest giver. StarTree is recognized as a Quest Giver. Wee~~!
Vivi: StarTree, give her the battle version. The battle version? StarTree can't give Ledia a report she didn't ask for! Then give ME the battle version. Fort Arsenal barrier power will run out by June 28. The region will come under heavy attack with uncountable losses for at least one month as the heroes scramble to seal the spawn points in prolonged exhaustion.
Ledia: Hmm... If we need to complete by June 28, we actually need to complete about 12 quest hours each day? At last someone can do simple math. Then I better do at least one hour. It only takes 12 people one quest hour each. Mwahahaha you're so naive! That's not going to happen! That's not something that I would worry about.
Ledia: @StarTree, Guidance. What are the easiest quest hours to complete?
StarTree: Tanya categorically marked all of the quests in the mines with a question mark, which represents 4 quests hours. But according to earlier report, some of them are simple and should not get those question marks! Could you give an example? Jade mine shaft 8, level 2, chamber 7. Jade mine shaft 9, level 4, chamber 8. Sapphire mine shaft 6, level 2, chamber 2. These spawn points only have low level monsters well-described in the monster manual. They should be easily sealed!
Ledia: I go to each of the location to do their trial.
Cardinal: Ledia, you easily completed the trials at two spawn points, but had problem completing at chamber 7. What monster do you want there to have? Let's say they are all jellies but the ones at chamber 7 have natural camouflage. Even if I take out the ones I can see, the trial still fails. because I can't hit what I can't see and they are not aggressive and don't give much threat for my paladin sense to detect. I'm enjoying this. This is a proper Cardinal Quest! 😆 I almost want to say let's ignore that spawn point but I am going to ask my fellow paladins for advice. Ledia starts writing a letter to Arx HQ.
Vivi: You're going to ask your Headquarters about jellies? Level 1 monsters? They're going to laugh at you! At least that'll be entertaining. Ledia receives
Cardinal: With her effort, Ledia had reduced the quest hours by 14 hours. Ledia had reduced the quest hours to 290. Congratulations, Ledia! You've finished enough hours for the party today by yourself!
Vivi: But your luck is going to run out. These are the easiest spawn points. It is only going to get harder. But while reading the report StarTree gave me, I found a clue about a chamber nearby. Clues are useless. You still don't know what it takes. But now I know what to ask for. Are you going to bombard your HQ with questions? I'll start looking for a hero who knows better and recruit them to help, and collect clues in the meantime. Ledia had reduced the quest hours to 286.
Sasha: As a result, Ledia knocked out 18 quest hours and reduced the completion date to July 20. Is this the most the heroes can complete in a single day? Can the heroes prevent the incoming calamity? Stay tuned for the next episode of Cardinal Quest!

Music Ensemble

We are adding soundtrack to the side bar, but Musescore seems to be down right now. Please try it later. And Ivy said something about how to keep the music playing on different pages.

Ivy: I was saying to keep the music playing, you might need to "pin" the selected soundtrack and change the teleport links to JQuery links to swap the content of the main panel. That would mean every chapter page will need to have that slight change for it to work. Could we start with @Music? They all have to change. The source page needs to have a frame for the swapping.
Zoey: If they all need to change, would it work if we just add a frame in the template? XD Actually that's not a bad idea. No. It's probably the correct idea. How can I not see that? Please try it. After questing. XD
Fina: I nominate @Music for S rank in May for great effort adding Twinkle Light Tavern and interface updates. Even though that is a work in progress. I can't listen to it because Musescore is down! XD I think it is the best soundtrack we have so far. And we added different instruments, which we seldomly do. Hype XD @Music is now promoted to Rank S and ties with @Board at 20 points! Congratulations! P4 thanks Fina for nomination.

Anyone has any good news to share for the telephone section?

P4: Will there be a bad news section? I have a bad news. Maybe? What is it? Musescore is not down, but our guild can't get to Musescore. Fact checked. I can get to it from my phone. Have you tried getting to musescore from another computer in the same network? It works! Then could you try changing your IP address? It doesn't work! How about resetting the router? Someone is using it right now! Try in the morning then...
🕰️ [7:57 AM] 🕰️
StarTree: It didn't work! But Musescore asked for our IP address so StarTree sent it! WhatisMyIPAddress Little Red Riding Hood thanks StarTree for following up.
🕰️ [8:55 PM] 🕰️
StarTree: It is working now! 💟

Do you use shortcut keys? What shortcut keys are essential to you? Do you know some helpful shortcut keys that other may not know?

Black: I use WND+LEFT and WND+RIGHT to dock a window to half of the screen if I want to see two windows side by side. You could also do that by dragging a window to the side, then it allows you to select what window you want on the other side.
Zoey: Here are the rest of them. Windows Shortcuts
Evelyn: I use Control Shift S to take screenshots. I am not sure if that is a Windows Shortcut.
Zoey: It looks like the windows shortcut to snip screenshot is Windows+Shift+S. Ok. 😅
LRRH: Windows dot for Emoji. 🍰🍰🍰 🥰(●'◡'●)👍 Are we talking about work or not? XD 🤣
Tanya: What about Excel macro shortcuts? We use a macro to add a timestamped row and inherit context from the row above. We keyed it to Ctrl+Shift+Q. Or Ctrl+Shift+A to add the timestamped row only. Yes, that's important for us. Useful for people who need to log activities in Excel. Along that line, is there any shortcut key we want? That's a good question. 🤔

202206020951|Moral Alignment
June 2, 2022 Thursday 9:51 AM
Mira Mira

What moral alignment is your character? I'm adding a section at Mira Mira for people to define their moral alignment: D&D style. We sort of did that in the old profile pages, but do we share the same definition? Here could you explain why you class your character that way.

Ledia: I classify myself as Neutral Good because "Good" means you would try to help people and "Neutral" means I would go against the law if the law lags behind, but I won't try to break the law just to show its shortcomings.
Tanya: I am Lawful Neutral. I don't think I go out of my way to help people. I do what intrigues me. If the law forbids from helping others, it should be changed. Then there is no situation where you need to break the law to help people. But in the lack of laws explaining what is allowed, I prefer there to be laws. That makes me Lawful instead of Neutral.
Evelyn: I think I am Lawful Good because I rely on rules to help me tell what is good.
LRRH: I am Neutral Good because I rely more on intuition than on rules to tell me what is good. Cute is good. I can't really define what is cute. 😊
LRRH: Arcacia should be Chaotic Good because she doesn't seem to care about "rules" at all. She is unpredictable and doesn't take any responsibility. I don't think I want to put that until Arcacia tells us about herself. But it was on her old profile. I don't know who put it there. Red put it there! Arcacia is my mom. Why would I not know what alignment she is? I would prefer if she describes it herself instead of us speaking for her. But that's like never. But not exactly never. I can wait.
Sylvia: I am Chaotic Neutral. I don't t care about rules. I don't care about help those I don't care about.
Sasha: My character is Lawful Evil. I enjoy seeing people in trouble so I bring them trouble. But as a minor villain, I do this for my entertainment so I'm not trying to destroy the heroes. The lawful part is about I like using rules to corner the heroes. Your old profile says Chaotic Neutral. But now you are asking about my character, not me. The me Sasha is Chaotic Neutral. And why do you think the real Sasha is Chaotic Neutral? Isn't that off topic? I just want to know how you distinguish Lawful and Chaotic Evil. That's in the style of doing evil. My style is different from Vivi. Vivi would just go and attack if she feels like it. That is Chaotic Evil. For the game-Sasha, she would find lawful excuses to make it legal. Understood.
Vivi: What Sasha said. Queen Vivi is Chaotic Evil. Gotta recruit a Neutral Evil for team villains!
StarTree: StarTree is True Neutral! StarTree just does what is told most of the time! In the story that would be the useful idiot. Can we not use that word? 😖 But that's the term. StarTree feels... hurt...
Evelyn: StarTree is not true neutral, StarTree is actually Good, but had been told that she is supposed to be neutral. StarTree actually wants to be Good. Come join the Good side, StarTree. 🤗 Okay. 😭 StarTree decided to be Neutral Good. You've just lost our best recruit. Evelyn is using witchcraft, she has been studying ESP and knows mind control. Hospitalian Knights are against mind control. So now Evelyn is an enemy of Hospitalian Knights. Tanya do your thing. Evelyn didn't do anything out of line.
Sasha: Yes she did. She said that "StarTree is actually Good, Come join the Good side", not "StarTree do you want to join our side?" That's different from what Evelyn would have said before learning ESP. Evelyn was using affirmation speech on someone else, but the ESP only taught her to use it on herself. She is using mind control on someone else. That should be illegal. Evelyn? Sasha is right, I feel guilty 😖 But StarTree doesn't think it would make a difference if Evelyn just asked! But StarTree is still under influence of Evelyn's mind control technique. StarTree, if there is any influence, don't you think it would fade in a week? If a week later you still feel that you should join the "good" side, then it will be convincing. Okay! StarTree decides to wait for a week before changing alignment.
StarTree: StarTree doesn't want Evelyn to feel guilty, so StarTree will choose by herself! Sasha believes in StarTree's autonomy and neutrality. StarTree has always been great in the story because StarTree helps **everyone**, including those who thinks they are evil. Sasha thinks that StarTree is very wise and understands deep down that by being neutral, she will end up helping the most people. Sasha thinks that StarTree explained this earlier in the story. StarTree remembers. 😭 I also remember. I'm sorry StarTree, you are neutral for a good reason. I used mind control on you and spurred you to change. I shouldn't have done that and regret doing so. 🏳️ StarTree decides to remain neutral and be a friend to everyone. Nice save, Sasha. Vivi thanks Sasha. Getting a kudos from Queen Vivi makes Sasha very proud.

I know it is late, but what are we reading tomorrow for the study group? We finished reading the ESP thing XD

Sasha: Could we read Fate Core? I will read anything just to keep the habit. XD It is downloaded! OMG 300 pages XD
Ledia: I'm interested. I heard it is simpler than D&D and makes faster games. @Cardinal should know this so he can beat it. Cardinal will join.
Ivy: I'll sit out on this one. The content doesn't seem directly beneficial. But if you report otherwise, I may change my mind.
Evelyn: I don't think I am done with the study yet. I want to come up with some visualization scenes that we could fall back on. I thought lunch time would be a good time to discuss and write it down, since it doesn't take a lot of writing. I'd be more interested in doing that.
Sasha: Then you should join the Fate Core study group because Fate Core is about making characters and making the world. There's got to be something that will help you visualize. I can totally see that connection. Why didn't you say 'compelling argument'? I don't know what we will read to know whether it is compelling. But I would read it and apply anything good for @Mira. I don't think we all have to read it. I'm good as long as at least someone else is reading with me. I just don't want to read alone. Then I want to join too. 😊
Sasha: Ok! I count a group of five. Let's do it!

202206030827|Rob for fun
June 3, 2022 Friday 8:27 AM
Puzzle Time

A bank robber holds up a bank but leaves with no money. Yet, he is happier than if he would. Why?

Tanya: Did he holds up the bank to destroy evidence of what he did previously? The crime is standalone! Casey: Did he steal something that is not money? Yes! What did he steal? Zoey: Did he steal jewelry or something from the safe? Here is a hint: The thing he stole is liquid, in a container! Sylvia: Did he steal wine? No, it is not anything one could normally buy! I was going to say gasoline. It is not gasoline. Sasha: What liquid can't you buy? Is he stealing bomb fuel? It's not, and I've got two hints: 1) He stole it from a bank. But the "bank" is probably not the kind you are imagining. The second hint will make it really easy so I'll hold it for now. Evelyn: Did he steal blood? He stole blood from a blood bank to help his sick kid! Does that actually work? This sounds more like a movie plot. 🤔 I guess that is possible if the robber or someone he knows can use it. 😅
Sasha: May I ask a moral alignment question? If a blood bank is reserving donated blood for rich people, is it okay for poor people to steal the blood to help poor people? You could simplify that question to "if you have a rare blood type that could help save someone else life, do you have a right to refuse donating blood?" That turns into an @Concept question XD The channel is open for free discussion! That situation is answered in Stewardism reciprocation. If you can help someone but you choose not to, it creates a right for others to not help you. So if you are not willing to donate something that is regenerative (such as your blood), then it is not wrong for other to help you with what is regenerative for them, or to help you with something that is more permanent. So if someone tries to restrain me and steal my blood, you would just stand there an do nothing if I refused to donate in the first place? Isn't that against my autonomy? If your refusal to donate blood would result in someone else losing their life, then your disregard of their autonomy permits your autonomy to be disregarded. In that situation, defending you would violate reciprocation. I could choose to be neutral and do nothing. But everyone has a right to restrain you to take your blood because you refused. But you are not giving me a choice if you are allowed to take it by force. That is reciprocation to your not giving others a choice when you could afford to offer such choice. If they are asking for something that will kill you or leave you disabled, than that's different. But they are taking my time, and time is life. So they are taking my life. If that if your argument that people could just do it while you are sleeping. It is fine if you ask for compensations and accomodations. But a flat "NO" is gross disregard of autonomy. If you just care about your autonomy but not that of others, you can't ask for others to respect your autonomy either. Compelling reasoning. Isn't Stewardism supposed to be neutral? If you help someone take by blood, that is not neutral. You picked a side. Stewardism doesn't say I have to help anyone or I have to stay out of the way. It is within my choice to help or not. But due to reciprocation, stopping others from taking your blood violates Stewardism. I can see that it violates reciprocation, but I don't agree with your definition of autonomy. I think autonomy should include the choice to not help other people. So if I choose not to help others, they could choose not to help me. But they can't be allowed take things from me. Stewardism is a moral code, not a law code. It is just saying that you can't demand others to respect your autonomy if you don't respect other's. I know but you are not listening to what I said. Taking is different from not giving. If I don't give, others don't need to feel bad not giving to me. But as long as I don't take, others have no rights to take from me. Your word "respect" doesn't distinguish between taking and giving. Stewardism doesn't distinguish them because a person is allowed to actively get what they need. Disrespecting someone's autonomy means treating them as objects or not caring whether they may continue to be alive. So if you treat others as objects, they can treat you as an object. But I am not doing anything to them. Say they are half way across the globe and I just happen to have the blood type. I didn't go half way across to stop them to get blood or find a solution. What gives them the right to come half way to take my blood against my will. My refusal didn't disrespect anyone's autonomy. Their coming to take my blood is the disrespect of autonomy. Your refusal to help someone stay alive when you could is the initial disrespect of autonomy. Their coming is a reaction to your disregard. Say you receive a letter request your blood to save someone's life. What is your reply? So far your reply is just "I don't want to and I don't care if they die." But if autonomy is a right, then that should be what it means and what I am allowed to reply without retaliations. We are disagreeing on whether not helping someone in need is a disregard of autonomy. Fina, do you agree that not helping someone needing autonomy assistance is disregard of autonomy, but not a violation of their autonomy? Disregard and violation seem to have different meaning. Sasha is saying that disregard can be reciprocated with disregard, but it takes a violation to be reciprocated with violation. Right! If am apathetic, then others can be apathetic to me. But only if I go out of my way to attack someone, others should not be allowed to attack me. If you are apathetic about someone dying, that means that others are allowed to be apathetic about you dying. That means others are allowed to let people treat you as an object. Then you are a piece of public resource, like a piece of regenerative forest land. People can come harvest and let you regenerate. Because someone would die from your apathy, disregard and violation would lead to the same outcome of your being classified as a resource. But the result is I didn't enslave anyone, but I get enslaved. How is that equivalent reciprocation? I didn't say enslave. I said people can come and take your blood and supply you with what you need to regenerate. They can do that while you are unconscious. They are not asking you to do anything for them. But if I don't naturally sleep, or if I live in a very secured house, would you let people break my house and put me into sleep? You already said they have a right to restrain me. So even if that doesn't qualify as slavery, that still qualifies as imprisonment. So if I didn't poke a needle into someone, you are letting others force a needle into me. You are saying that I'm not a human being unless I help other human beings even when I never attacked them. If you treat someone as non-human, you don't need to attack them to be treated as non-human. In Stewardism, the default is that all objects are to be taken cared of. If you treat someone without care of them as a human being, why do you demand others to treat you with the care as a human being? But you didn't answer my question. Are you going to break into my house and put me to sleep? Qualified damages should be restored. But normally if you put a fence around a public apple tree to prevent others from accessing the tree, then breaking the fence is not damage that needs to be restored. So if you try to keep people away after disregarding them as human beings, all of your defenses can be taken down. No one has responsibility to restore them. How is that not terrorism? It is going for your blood, not to kill you or prevent you from doing what you want otherwise. But how often do you need to do that? If you need to do that once a week, them I'm basically in a prison without walls. The result is still either I take my own time to give you my blood once a week, or you would come and take my blood once a week. There is no choice. That is compared to your not giving the other the choice to live. You denied other's the choice to live when you have the power to let live. The reciprocation spares your life. You are already at a bargain. But I didn't put them in their condition to begin with, so why do I need to do anything? If they are at fault for their condition, then that's true you don't need to do anything. Otherwise there is no excuse. It is like saying if someone is hanging on a balcony and you consciously choose not to help when you could do something safely to save them, then while you are still in a position to help, others may do what it takes to override disregard to save someone. You don't have a right to keep others from breaking into your house to get to the balcony to save the dangling person. Hospitalian Knights should agree. That's correct. In that situation, damages to the house are considered self-inflicted by the party making the path to assist inaccessible. But we are not talking about balconies, but blood. Blood is inside my body. But we are not talking about someone needing help on their homework, but needing help to stay alive. If a vampire wants your blood just to know its taste, that won't warrant anyone helping the vampire get your blood. But what if the vampire needs blood as staple food source? Then everyone needs to volunteer their blood or be bitten? Then it is a matter of sustainability. You can defend against an unsustainable life style and just say no. Then why can't I refuse to give blood? If it is one-time deal then it is not unsustainable. In reciprocation there is a consideration of effort. If the blood taken from you takes 1 year to restore, then everyone trying to take your blood is signing themselves up to take care of you for 1 year. Suddenly it sounds fair. Let me think about it. That is within what you could ask for as fair compensation in Stewardism. Stewardism doesn't ask you to help people for free. Helpers need to be reimbursed to maintain sustainability. Sasha is grinning at her imagination of having a servant for a year. Sasha totally spaced out. Even though "1 year to recover from donating blood" was totally hypothetical! XD It is not really hypothetical. Even if it takes only 3 days to recover, if you do it every 3 days, then you are perpetually cared for. That is, if there is a demand of it. That's true. 🤔 Many people are willing to donate blood for free, so... let's return to reality? 😅 Mikela thanks every for the playing and the thought provoking discussion!

202206040857|Catacomb reboot
June 4, 2022 Saturday 8:57 AM
Arx Catacomb

I am planning to go through each logical fallacy as a training module in the theme of a dungeon crawl. In each module, there will be a short description of the zombie, followed by a few statements. Some of the statements would match the zombie type. The player is trying to spot the zombie of the same time. When they click on a choice, the choice would immediately tell them whether they are right or wrong. If we are fancy then we will add a hitpoint bar. Otherwise it is just click and reveal answer. I need help presenting/formatting it, and also interesting statements for the real zombies and the decoys.

Ledia: I'm in. This sounds fun.
Tanya: I am just going to go through each fallacy one by one. But you could skip ahead if there is one you want to do.
Tanya: The first one is Strawman zombie. The short description is Strawman zombies attack using a voodoo doll. When the zombie pokes the doll with a needle, susceptible heroes would think that they were hurt and become manipulated by the zombie to attack other healthy heroes.
Ledia: I think that sounds a bit wordy but we could work on that.
Tanya: Then we need at least two examples. An example would feature either a statement or a short dialogue, followed by two choices: Strawman zombie spotted, or Strawman zombie clear. Spotted and Clear for short. What should those examples be?
Ledia: How about: A says, "Zombies live in the catacomb, they have a right to defend against intruders." and B says, "If you let them call anywhere home, then there won't be space for living people." I see.
Zoey: Just to be clear, that was a positive example, correct? Correct. B was using a strawman argument.
Fina: I have a suggestion. Why don't you start with the player choosing a statement they believe in, then see what a strawman reply would be from someone opposing it? And what statement would you like to start with? "I believe that each person has a right to do nothing even if they know that their inaction would result in someone's death." Isn't that opposite of what you said this morning? For the sake of the training dungeon, the dungeon can show both paths: "I believe that people don't have a right to do nothing when they know that their inaction would result in someone's death." For either statement, there is a way to reply with a strawman, and a way to reply without.
Evelyn: Are we trying to train ourselves to not use Strawman, or are we trying to train ourselves on what to do if someone else uses Strawman against us? Both. Okay. It seems complicated. 😅 If we do both sides of a statement, and do both speaking and replying, there are four scenarios, and each scenario needs a strawman choice and a non-strawman choice. That's eight.
Sasha: I kind of like Ledia's example talking about zombie rights. It is funnier. But I can see how Fina's idea would be immediately useful. If you do both then that is 16 choices XD
Evelyn: I mainly want to learn how to response when someone uses strawman against someone or myself.
Tanya: How about we go back to Ledia's dialogue for a second and list what we think would be effective ways to respond?
Evelyn: I think my choice would be, instead of saying "That's not what I meant", provide the law that zombies follow on defining their home. For example, I could say the zombies were placed there, so they have a a right to call the catacomb their home against the people who placed them there. I think in Tanya's scenario, the zombies were summoned. They were not re-animated from corpses that were placed there. The zombies were intruders infesting burial ground of heroes. Most of them have no idea why they were there. They were spawned there. I'll let Ledia fill in the gap about the context, since Ledia worked there before. Okay. 😅
Zoey: Then in that context, the zombies are living in the catacomb because they were placed there. But they don't have the right to live there, do they? So A was wrong, correct? We don't have to agree on whether A was right or not. But if we don't fix one stance for the discussion it would be really confusing 🤣 XD
Tanya: Could we have a show of hand on whether the forcefully summoned zombies have a right to live there? Those in favor: Evelyn: ✔️😖 Those oppose: Tanya: Ledia: Fina: Zoey: Sasha: Because there is no consensus, let's continue without assuming whether zombies have the right to live there. The reader can decide whether A expresses their belief. The training will focus on whether the response to A is a strawman. Then we are down to two choices. 👍 May be three. So two more. We need a reply to A that is not a strawman, and a good reply on B's strawman from A. Then the situation is covered. 👍 Anyone has a situation for either? I have a non strawman alternative to B's reply: "In the scenario, the summoned zombies are from a different space, not from the heroes that the catacomb was built for. Do you believe that both the heroes and the summoned zombies have a right to live there?" Am I supposed to answer that? 😖 Not for the training module. Please wait. Now a reply to B's strawman.
Evelyn: Because they were summoned there against their will, they have a right to be where they are. I don't believe that people have a right to attack them just because they are not where the living people want them to be.
Zoey: I think I spotted a strawman. Ledia didn't talk about attacking zombies. Sorry, I thought that was implied. 😖
Sasha: Hold on, we said Ledia's reply was a strawman because A never said they would just let the zombies roam. But Evelyn's reply was she would let zombies roam, and they could call wherever they are home. Wouldn't that mean Ledia did not make a Strawman? She hit the actual argument.
Tanya: Not at the time the statement was made. When Ledia made that statement, she didn't know that Evelyn would confirm that belief.
Sasha: Objection. If Ledia knows that is a strawman because in this exercise she intentionally assumed that A didn't mean that and tried to make it seem ridiculous. But in an actual debate, the person making the strawman could believe that that's what A meant. And in this case, that guess was correct. Then B did not try to misrepresent A's position. B correctly represented A's position.
Tanya: A can judge whether B's reply is a strawman. Because Ledia created the dialogue, Ledia knew what A was thinking instead. Presumably, A's position was different from Evelyn's, therefore in her scenario, A would have said B's reply was a misrepresentation. OMG We need to know what A actually thought! We've got adds! XD I'll deal with the adds.
Ledia: A's position was that the subterranean domain (where sun light can't normally reach) is traditionally the domain of the undead. The catacomb is underground. The living people have no rights to section the undead domain real estates. It is for the undead to decide. A didn't believe that the undead can just roam anywhere, especially not above ground where the living people lives. But underground, they have a right. Therefore B's reply was a strawman.
Fina: I am not trying to make another branch for the discussion, but Stewardism doesn't arbitrary assign the living to take the aboveground and the undead to take the underground. Whether something has a right to live depends on whether they give equivalent right for others to live. If they don't try to accommodate, you don't have to try to accommodate. Zombies don't respect anything's right. They just spread. They don't have rights by reciprocation. I am not saying that you won't, but I believe they should be treated with respect because they cannot control what they are doing. I think they should be horded back to a place where they can't hurt anyone. Evelyn, good job demonstrating how to express your belief without spawning strawman. By saying, "I am not saying that you won't." Evelyn is recognized for having a staff of sanctuary.
Fina: But I am visualizing a party going to the catacomb, got the only light magic party member and that party member happens to be a conscientious objector of using light magic against the undead. 😄 I can use light magic too. It depends on the purpose of the mission. I still have Protect and Sleep. We could just sneak by unharmed even if they try to attack us. We don't need to fight them. 😖
Ledia: Zombies at the catacomb are cursed beings. Their souls are not at peace, but in a constant state of torment. You can release them from the curse by either destroying their physical body, or use de-curse type spells to release their souls. I assume that you don't know de-curse spells. But even if you do, Clerics that go to the catacomb eventually accept that the physical way is easier, quicker, and safer than casting de-curse. To cast de-curse you would generate a wild area aura, you will get mad aggros. So just beat them up. It might not look nice, but it is safer and more humane because it is quicker. I am imagining a situation where someone is locked in a burning building. Do you take the time to pick the lock, or do you just kick down the door? Exactly. Ledia receives It is also safer for the caster because de-cursing means the caster need to connect to the soul of the cursed. Normal casters can't handle the torment happening in the zombie's mind. They will get PTSD from trying. 😖 I think it is better if we can skip traumatic suggestions. We'll fight happy zombies then XD
Tanya: I'm following a rule adopted earlier that the stories and themes we use cannot contain any trauma we create just for the explanation or entertainment. If we add any traumatic element to a story, it can only reflect existing traumatic event in real life that we are trying to resolve. Otherwise, for story purposes, the representation and description should stop at the abstraction that "Zombies have hit points" and Heroes have attacks and other skills that can decrease their hit points. You may imagine what the scene is in your head. But you may only post abstractions at Magic Bakery because Magic Bakery is supposed to be an E-rated blog. No contest. That is why we call Arx Catacomb the Arxade. When you hit a zombie, stars come out. Enough stars come out then things are good. Ledia, I think your description is sufficient. I imagine when I cast an attack spell they turn into gold coins and treasure chests. Just the usual XD 🤣
Evelyn: May I learn surgical de-curse? A skill that allow me to release cursed soul link telepathically, that is safe and with a low aura signature? 😖 That sounds so high level XD @Cardinal.
Cardinal: How about a skill that let you enchant objects so that on contact, there is a chance to release zombie curse? How is that different from just shooting them with a light spell? I am offering a skill that can enchant fighter weapons so that all of them have a chance to instant KO a zombie they hit. Then what if she enchants the ground? The larger object she enchants, the more mana it takes and increases the signature. If she wants to have a low aura signature, then enchant just pin points. So, just the tip of a sword instead of the whole blade. Except it wouldn't really matter whether my sword is enchanted if it hits, since zombies have low hit points... But if she enchants the ground, and zombies aggro the ground, and they get released on contact, then there is no fighting. The enchanted object is mana-linked to the spell caster. Every time it releases a curse, the caster's mana is deducted. The caster is KO'ed on mana-overdraw. And, if the zombie is not released on contact, the zombie follows the mana-link toward the spell caster. I would take that skill. Evelyn is gains the Cleric enchantment skill Soul Release Rank B.
Tanya: I think I have enough to work with in terms of formatting the presentation. Thank you all for this discussion. Tanya thanks all for helping.

202206041003|Honorism
June 4, 2022 Saturday 10:03 AM
World Tree

For Honorism, I'm defining it as a moral view that promotes and celebrates people who are honorable without implying that honor can be exchanged for any tangible reward. Honor Society recognizes honorable people and honorable deeds, but does not necessary connect those recognitions to rewards and priorities. This is for @Seed, to be posted at Seed of Peace. Any objection or addition?

Tanya: Honorism appeals to those who believe that people should do good for goodness sake, not for the reward. Arcacianism is compatible with Honorism because in Arcacianism if you use your credits (honor) to bid on things for priority, you lose those credits. The concept that honor is quantifiable is missing in Honorism. Honorism is mainly qualitative and spiritual instead of "functional". In Arcacian Society, people who subscribes to Honorism are those who typically don't care about their numerical ranking and don't use their credits to bid for any priority. They keep 100% of their credits they have ever earned because earning credits to spend is not their intention. They earn credits for the sake of doing good or the sake of being recognized as honorable. Not for the sake of spending them.
Fina: Then I have a question: If two sick people seek your help, but one is willing to let go of some honor credits to be prioritized. Is it honorable to prioritize helping the one that let go of credits, or to treat them equally and decide randomly?
Tanya: In Arcacian Society the answer is clear. The priority goes to the one willing to spend credits. The moral reason is that those people got their honor from helping others. They have a right to be prioritized, at the cost of their earned credits. Arcacian moral holds that as a fair arrangement and compensation. On the other hand, "Honorism" is not well-defined. It is up to you to define which is more honorable in your style of honorism.
Fina: Then if someone defines treating others equally is honorable, then Arcacianism is dishonorable. On the other hand, Arcacianism would NOT say that deciding randomly is dishonorable. As a healer, if you choose not to prioritize helping those willing to shred their credits, then you are not arcacian. You are still earning credits for helping. You are still honorable. So if you choose to define Arcacianism to be not honorable, Arcacianism would not contest your definition. It is compatible to the kind of Honorism that do not have contradicting definition. Fair enough.
Zoey: Then I also have a question: In Arcacianism, you get credits for helping people. Do you get more credits if you prioritize and help someone who won a credit bid? I need to think about it. I would think that it does. You get Extra Credits for helping, and you get Extra Credits for promoting Arcacian values. In reciprocation that would make sense. If you honor someone spending credits to get priority, then you should earn honor for doing so.
Tanya: Does a provider who distributes help in Arcacian priority earn extra credits for adopting that priority?
Ledia: I don't recall having such credits. If you are Arcacian, you prioritize but you get the same credits you would if you just help randomly, or whoever you want to help. If you can only help one person, you get the same amount of credits regardless which one you help.
Tanya: I think that result comes from Aracianism being a philosophy based on an Alchemist world view. Tanya receives
Tanya: Prioritizing is a matter of last resort. Alchemist world view is a world view of abundance, and strides to help everyone. If you give people extra credits for prioritizing , you could end up promoting scarcity.
Tanya: So the scoring doesn't allocate any credits for prioritizing. After helping the first person, whoever helps the second person gets the next credit. The focus is on helping the second person also, and the rest of them. Tanya receives Arcacia has spoken XD But isn't it a little odd that you get credits for helping people, but not for being Arcacian? That just means that Arcacia doesn't give credits for being loyal.
Fina: In Stewardism, not taking care of care takers first is considered unsustainable. It is not morally neutral. It is a moral violation.
Tanya: There is no contradiction because if the target is trying to help someone, reimbursement is implied. The Arcacian Reward is not reimbursement. It is something extra beyond simply resupplying the helpers with what they need to keep helping. That is in Step 4 at @Carrot. Reimbursement and Reward are different. The reward is in addition to sustainability.
Evelyn: That section also states that when you give others a reward, you earn Extra Credits, and that creates a network of people wanting to reward good deeds. To me that means you do get credits for giving rewards. Giving reward implies prioritization. But Tanya is also right that the focus is not to prioritize but to help everyone. So when two people are in need, you get more total credits by prioritizing the one spending credits, and also help the second. If you help the one without credit first before rewarding the one with credits, you would end up getting fewer credits even if you help both. Step 5 made it clear the intention that this mechanism needs to be practiced routinely to prepare for calamities. There is credit for following the priority. Not following the priority still gives credits, just not as much. Evelyn receives I can see situations where if the credits for following the priority is not too much, the overall accounting would still promote helping everyone. So Fina and I were right. We do get Extra Credits for prioritizing XD Sorry, I was wrong. But you were pointing out something important that Arcacia would agree. 😊 Evelyn receives The whole point is to help everyone, but in order to minimize conflict, there is a priority for people to be familiar with. Evelyn receives
Zoey: The priority is that the priority is secondary. XD Zoey receives Zoey is recognized for Magician Skill Confusionism.
Fina: I nominate Evelyn as an Arcacian Ambassador. Fina receives Evelyn is now recognized as an Arcacian Ambassador. Well-deserved. LRRH: Congratulations! Your effort of taking care of @Carrot is paying off! 😂 Evelyn receives
Zoey: This is way more content than I was asking for. Good job and thanks for chiming in! Zoey gives another round of kudos for the day.

202206042003|Tavern Trial
June 4, 2022 Saturday 8:03 PM
Fort Arsenal

Seeing how @Cardinal isn't really being maintained since February, Ledia has some concerns on whether their heroic deeds would be lost in history. But the priority remains that the party should push on to seal the area. @StarTree, status report please.

StarTree: 246 quest hours remain, projected sealing date is July 17!
Ledia: StarTree, what subquest would you recommend for me? Tavern has 6 quest hours that can be soloed! Okay then. Ledia, do you mind if I join? Of course not. 😊
Twinkle Light Tavern
Evelyn: Yesterday we almost got this area completely sealed. But the part of the magic circle that should activate the lights did not work. We are asking the sages for help. In the meantime we need to map and archive the changes we made to the leyline. So, how do we start? Normally Zoey goes to the area hall to get a registration code... I have never done that before. 😖 But StarTree said this can be soloed. Yes it can! Would you like StarTree to show you? Yes please. Ledia followed StarTree's guidance and obtained 1 of 2 official registration code.
Ledia: I feel spoiled to have such assistant. StarTree is a great guide. Wee~~! May I try doing the second one? Be my guest. Evelyn obtained 2 of 2 official registration code.
StarTree: Next, Sylvia would normally uses a template scroll, which StarTree can create! StarTree creates the scroll template.
Ledia: Now this part I am familiar. Yes. Protect. 😊 Evelyn casts Protect on the party.
Ledia: I open the scroll. 12 Demon Gnats are spawned.
Evelyn: I cast sleep. 8 of 12 Demon Gnats are now asleep.
Ledia: I attack the closest one to me.
Cardinal: Ledia approaches the first Demon Gnat that was awake. Their agility requires Careful and Quick strikes to hit without disturbing the slept Gnats. Which should be within my ability to do. Or should I say Aspect? Sounds like you are using FATE terms. I am experimenting with the terms. No change in mechanics yet. Ledia KO's the demon Gnat without trouble. 11 Gnats remain.
Evelyn: Can we reposition so we are not fighting among the slept ones? You may. But the Gnats do not seem very strong.
StarTree: StarTree attacks the moving one closest to Evelyn! StarTree's grasping vines sprouts forth from the ground Sneakily and KO's a Gnat. 10 remain. StarTree is not sneaky! How do you want to do it? StarTree saw that the Gnats would dodge, so StarTree summoned a lot more vines than necessarily! StarTree's Forceful and Flashy vines KO the second woke Gnat and also a third slept Gnat near Evelyn. 9 remain. Wee~~!
Zoey: OMG what did I miss? XD
Evelyn: We are playing Cardinal Quest with some FATE terms added. 😊 Can I shoot something? XD While Zoey is observing the situation, Ledia attacks the third moving Gnat.
Cardinal: As Ledia moved to the third Gnat, the fourth Gnat swooped in to attack her also. Ledia did not land a hit. Meanwhile I take careful aim.
Zoey: By the way, if the Gnat are asleep, are they on the ground or are they hovering?
Sasha: HAHAHAHAHA! Cardinal, ARP!!
Cardinal: As Zoey tried to take aim, she noticed that the slept Gnat are waking up as they hit the ground. All nine remaining Gnats are awake. 😖 Sorry for asking! XD
🏹
Zoey: I already took aim so I shoot one of the Gnats Ledia was fighting. Zoey KO's her target with a Careful shot. 8 Gnats remain.
Cardinal: The remaining 8 Gnats attack the four heroes at once. Two on each hero.
Ledia: Tiamat Chain Lightning.
Sasha: Cardinal, Invoke area aspect: Fort Arsenal Magic Dispel!! Fabulous. The partially functioning anti-attack magic barrier caught up to the fight and locked down Ledia's mana circuit. Ledia collapses. Ledia is OOM and KO'ed. We haven't played for so long I've forgotten the main aspect of Fort Arsenal. 😖 StarTree doesn't know what to do if she can't summon vines! The party's Protect effect has worn off from the Gnats' attacks.
🏹
Zoey: Barrage. XD
Cardinal: Zoey uses barrage at a disadvantage because the Gnats are scattered. But she managed to hit some. Zoey KO'ed 2 Gnats and took 1 damage. 6 Gnats remain.
Evelyn: Flare. Evelyn casts flare for help. Evelyn takes 1 damage while doing so.
🌼
StarTree: StarTree uses sweet flower! All six Gnats become fixated on StarTree's fruity fragrance. StarTree takes 1 damage while doing so.
Zoey: I wait for the gnats to gather at StarTree, then I will barrage again. 😅 Evelyn recasts Protect. The party gains Protect.
🥝
StarTree: StarTree feeds the Gnats! StarTree summons Fruit Basket. StarTree's Protect has worn off. StarTree takes 1 damage from the six attacking Gnats.
🏹
Zoey: Barrage. XD Zoey, roll 5 dice with advantage please. Zoey: D20x5 = {20,17,6,5,4}, {20,17,16,15,8} Zoey's Forceful barrage KO's 4 Gnats as they has just KO'ed StarTree. The remaining two Gnats flies to Zoey. 🏳️😭
Evelyn: I heal Zoey.
Cardinal: Zoey is healed to full health, which is 2. One of the Gnats now attacks Evelyn. Protect on Zoey and Evelyn wears off from the attacks.
Cardinal: Zoey, what do you do? I Hunter Mark the Gnat attacking me so I can dodge and run away without looking at it, while trying to take a shot at the one attacking Evelyn XD Roll one die with disadvantage please. D20 = {20}{5} Ouch XD The Gnat followed Zoey too closely. Zoey takes 1 damage and had no opportunity to make a shot.
Cardinal: Evelyn, what do you do? I ... 😅
P4: Double clone sneak attack. Roll four times with advantage please. P4: D20x4={18,12,11,3}{18,12,11,2} P4's Sneak Attack KO's the Gnat attacking Evelyn and stunned the one chasing Zoey.
Zoey: I shoot that thing point blank XD
Cardinal: Zoey KO's the last Gnat. The trial is complete. Ledia and StarTree are revived to 1 hit point.
Ledia: Sorry team, I was way too excited and forgot everything.
Evelyn: I think we all did. 😅
StarTree: By the team effort, quest hour is reduced to 240 and the sealing date to July 16!
Ledia: StarTree, what are the next trials we can do? Owl Forest, Serpent Cave, Geyser! I think we should keep going tomorrow. Yes, let's play again. P4 please come too. 😊 💟 Ledia thanks everyone for the great party and looks forward to tomorrow.

202206050816|Abbreviations
June 5, 2022 Sunday 8:16 AM
Court Arsenal

This week we adopted abbreviation to replace the alphanumeric code we used for field logging. Previously, Tanya introduced the enumeration code of a letter followed by two digits. B was for Boss fights, and S was for spawn points. But as time went on, no one could remember the code. Looking it up was annoying and took time. So we changed the code for field logging to a mostly two letter abbreviation. For example, Twinkle Light Tavern is abbreviated to LT instead of I-don't-remember-what-it-was.

Evelyn: Yes I think it is easier with abbreviations.
Tanya: I was more concerned that we would miscount and miss a spawn point. So they were numbered sequentially. And that was before we gave a name to each of them.
Tanya: And there is another purely numeric code that we need to assgin in the registry. The alphanumic code has a direct translation to that code.
Zoey: But in practice, virtually no one needs to know that numeric code. For logging we need to location code, that we use every day many times. As far as I understand, the numeric code in the registry has no significance other than listing the spawn points in an order. I think we shouldn't even record them anywhere else, so that if someone decides to arrange the order at the registry, they could just do that and nothing else needs to be changed. I see. Although I have already started another numeric convention for the registry. Code 1000s are for spawn points that need crafting materials to seal. Code 2000s are for those that only require magic spells. Code 3000s are those that required neither, or only procedures and instructions. I did that so when we list them on our field map, they can be listed in the approximate order of when their sub quests should be completed. You won't need to individually filter which spawn points have material gathering subquests. That does sound convenient, but if someone tries to change the order at the registry, they would have to change the code on our field map. I think we almost never change the registry code. An alternative is to just ad a sorting code on the field map that is unrelated to the registry code. Then you can sort the field map all you want, and other people can change the registry order all they want. I'll consider it. But it is a little unsettling when there is no unique code specifying which field map item corresponds to which registry item. I think it is not too hard to tell from the text title. And in the field map, we have scroll codes, those are unique and we can't change those. That is the cross-checking you could use to avoid errors. I see.
Zoey: I do like the 1000s 2000s 3000s numbering convention. I think it will look more organized. I see.
Sasha: And so the team will probably make further tweaks looking for ways that are easy to remember, easy to sort, and easy to change. Will the team find another breakthrough? We shall see when that happens! Sasha thanks the team for sharing experience on making it easier.

202206050918|Owl Forest
June 5, 2022 Sunday 9:18 AM
Owl Forest

Zoey arrives at the Owl Forest for Cardinal Quest. Is it too early? XD
Zoey: I thought we were done here. What do we need to do?

StarTree: There is supposed to be an owl registry list, but it is missing! I'll look for it. XD
Cardinal: With her masterful elemental trace skill, Zoey found the lost registry in no time. Zoey, you are are already Rank S in elemental trace. Otherwise, I would ask you to roll for skill upgrade. I maxed out. Maybe I should have let someone else try. XD Zoey has completed 2 quest hours. The blue text for effects is too bright, could we make it darker? What color would you like? Actually, why aren't we using the complete tag, which will be green? XD Good catch. 👍 For the blue, please try darkblue. Zoey is recognized for Herald Skill Keen Eye. Owl Forest subquest is completed for today. Next. XD

202206051005|Serpent Cave
June 5, 2022 Sunday 10:05 AM
Serpent Cave

Zoey teleports to the Serpent Cave, the location for the second set of subquests for today.

Zoey: What is the quest here?
StarTree: The Serpent is a new monster type to the heroes party. The party needs scouting and possibly a trial fight. Tanya allocated 14 quest hours for this quest due to unknowns. It sounds too hard to solo. XD The subquests are all meant to be soloable! But you said Twinkle Light Tavern was soloable, we almost got a TPK. XD According to Tanya, all subquests are soloable! I want to see Tanya solo it! XD
Zoey: For the Serpent I will do some scouting. But before that I check the records. The Serpent is new to us, but not to the region. There should be information in the archive.
Cardinal: Zoey found monster type information about the Serpent but not exactly for this location. Zoey also found information that seemed relevant to the caves around the backup barrier generator. I add notes for the backup barrier quest, and make copies of the Serpent attack pattern. This is going to be intense XD Zoey completes the subquest to obtain Serpent attack pattern.
Evelyn: Evelyn checks in for quests.
Ledia: StarTree, status report please.
StarTree: Zoey completed 4 quest hours this morning! With 236 hours remaining, the sealing date is still July 16!
Ledia: Then should we do Geyser?
Zoey: I didn't finish Serpent Cave, it still has 12 hours remaining XD
Ledia: What is left for Serpent Cave that we can complete today? I prefer to do a subquest where we could complete within today and reduce the quest hours.
Zoey: I can't promise we can knock off any quest hour, but I am about to physically scout the Serpent Caves. I got clues about where magic circles were set in another area. Now I need to scout and look for those place in our caves.
Ledia: If we succeed, how many hours can we complete?
Zoey: Finding where to set the magic circles is worth 2 hours. Complete the magic circles is another 4 hours.
Evelyn: Is it important for the magic circles to be set at equivalent locations? I thought they can be set anywhere within the aura of the area crystal.
Zoey: Zoey shares the six old locations she found earlier.
Evelyn: I think the first two are fixed. The last two are arbitrary. I am not sure about the middle two. I add the two arbitrary locations and confirm that our area crystal understands the two fixed locations.
Cardinal: Evelyn opens a giant spell book. Is this going to take a while? It should be quick. 😅
Cardinal: Evelyn, roll with advantage please. Hold on. I got these dice. I hope it makes the game simpler. Are these FATE dice? They are not. They are Caledea dice. That game is so ugly I don't feel bad taking its dice I hope no one is offended. 😅 These dice only have one plus and one minus on each die. Wouldn't that lower our chances? I thought about it. Just roll a bunch of them at once and ignore the blanks. If you are right handed, just roll toward your left, and count the ones with plus or minues from the your left. Okay I'll try. So I grab... 7 dice and roll... Evelyn: Two Plus and Five Blanks. Is that good? 😅 That is a succeed even without advantage.
Cardinal: Evelyn flipped through thousands of pages but quickly and skillfully confirmed the first two locations are fixed relative to the crystal. That leaves 2 locations uncertain to the heroes. Actually this is kind of fun XD I think I just like rolling a bunch of dice! I like how the colors are bright and happy, and it is easy to see the result... since there are no numbers. 😊 But you can't cry "Natural 20!" anymore. Cardinal doesn't have the concept of natural 20. If you roll and bunch of dice and the first two are plus, that is 1/36 chance. That's more rare than a natural 20.That's what Evelyn just did. Yes, that's pretty hard! I haven't gotten one yet XD You don't have to try it. I already told you the probability. You didn't tell me what my luck is... OMG Evelyn GOT ESP! XD 🤣 Evelyn is now recognized to have Scroll Reading skill of Rank B. Evelyn redeemed herself XD
Tanya: I think it is within our ability to scout the caves and confirm or set the two remaining magic circle locations. Without further delay, I'm going to expand this sister crystal and study it.
Tanya: Zoey, could you get the raw form of the sister crystal so we can compare?
Zoey: Yes but no. I maxed out on my elemental trace skill, if I keep doing it, no one else can level up XD Our priority should be efficiency.
Ledia: How about you show us once, then we know how to do it?
Zoey: It is not that hard. Here it goes XD
Cardinal: Zoey skillfully identitied the raw crystal, and discovered a guardian crystal of the sister crystal that might also have important clues. That was a pretty complicated process. It is pretty easy conceptually XD but there are also some details here and there... Zoey, you are Rank S at this skill. You internalized many details and do it as second nature. It is not easy for someone who hasn't done it. It is Alien, to be honest. I guess not... But if I am the only one doing it, they we aren't really trying to solo anything are we? A subquest being soloable doesn't mean it is efficient for anyone to randomly solo any quest. It is more efficient if each person solo the part they are good at then hand the next part to someone else. But in case no one is available, the subquest is still soloable if the quester takes the time to learn what is going on. That would just take longer. I kind of understand what you mean, but somehow it is not satisfying. We have different strengths, we could all solo the part we are good at. We don't need to team up. That was the conclusion from the "Buddy System" post. Which you can find at Magic Detective. But that is somehow not satisfying.
Tanya: I came because I am familiar with this part. I am going to show the differences so we can mark the changes we need for our magic circles. Marking is not difficult. Judging might be more involved. Illuminate Crystal.
Cardinal: Tanya illuminated the crystals, projecting 241 differences surrounding the party. Are we marking all of them or only the ones related the Serpent? I suggest marking all of them in the first round, then check what are relevant in the second round.
Cardinal: Tanya, Zoey, and Evelyn started marking the difference. I will join. Since nothing else is going on...
Cardinal: Ledia and P4 join marking the difference. It will sure go faster if we all do it together. 😊
Sasha: I don't understand. Aren't you trying to find just two locations? Why do you need to mark everything? I bring up the parts of the scroll related to the locations in question.
Cardinal: What does Sasha conclude?
Sasha: I see nothing suggesting that they aren't arbitrary. I add them to the location list to clear those two quest hours. Remaining Quest Hours is reduced to 234.
Ledia: Um... do we stop?
Tanya: No. Please continue marking all of them. We are doing this to prevent mistakes when we transplant relevant changes to our crystal.
Ledia: Sasha, is what we are doing necessary? Got any Clever shortcuts?
Sasha: I don't know if it is necessary, but when we judge whether a change is relevant, we need to put our conclusion somewhere. The way they are marked now makes it easier to put those comments.
Cardinal: Sasha joins the team effort.
Casey: Might as well.
Cardinal: Casey joins the team effort. 😊
Sasha: I know it is almost over, but I have an efficiency idea: If you see a cluster of changes that are close together, you could just mark the whole cluster together. Because chances are they serve related function, so if we don't need them, we don't need the whole group.
Tanya: It might be okay for this comparison, but please avoid doing that in general.
Sasha: Why not?
Tanya: When the raw crystal spell is upgraded, it is easier to merge the changes if we only mark exactly what changed. It is finished. The heroes obtained Marked Sister Crystal.
Tanya: Now let's mark the Sister Crystal's Guardian Crystal. Is everyone still good? It is not too much work when it is spread out. 😊 It is just a little weird that right after Tanya's speech about soloing and seemingly trying to suggest that we should all get out of the room and leave her alone, we were actually working together. XD I didn't ask anyone to leave. But your mood was so hostile and repulsive XD I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way. I know XD We did this together for almost every crystal. Of course I know. XD Well, that explains the strange dynamic. I seriously thought Tanya wanted us out, but Zoey and Evelyn stayed without a word. I'm sorry. But here is the second crystal. Illuminate.
🕰️ [8:44 PM] 🕰️
Cardinal: Illumination shows 7 differences between the Guardian Crystal and its raw form. 7 XD This feels like a joke!
Cardinal: The heroes finished marking it in no time.
Tanya: Let's judge the guardian crystal first. Its changes are probably irrelevant. Then we don't have to worry about it. We will all look at it at once. If you can tell what it is for then say it.
Ledia: The first one who understands get the EXP?
Tanya: Sure. Here is the first one.
🛎️
Zoey: It is related! Not to the Serpent, but to the Barrier Backup Generator!
Tanya: I agree. Here is the second.
Zoey: I can't tell 🏳️ XD
Ledia: How do we tell if it is related?
Tanya: We don't have a procedure.
Evelyn: I read the change comments but it was not obvious. 😖
Sasha: How about we look at all of them to see if there is any pattern?
🛎️
Sasha: The last change is related to Barrier Backup Generator!
Tanya: I agree.
🛎️
Evelyn: I think the remaining changes are for shutting down leylines to the cave when the Serpent is detected. Evelyn receives
Tanya: I disagree. I think they are also for the Backup Generator. Here is the evidence.
Cardinal: Tanya shows sage comments about the Backup Generator in Elvish. I'm sorry. 😖 It's okay. Apparantly the sister crystal has two more hovering barriers, which we don't have.
Ledia: I thought we don't need any magic circle for the gravity guards.
Tanya: And now we see seeming contradicting evidence. We need to investigate.
🛎️
Sasha: There is no evidence that we need magic circles. If we disregard the other two floating objects we don't have, the remaining changes in the guardian crystal add two leylines to keep something afloat. Our Backup generator is based on another area that is more similar. If we want to check, we should check that crystal, not this one. So I would conclude that none of these changes are relevant or are good references for us.
Tanya: Zoey, could you identify what area our backup generator was based on?
Zoey: Found it XD. That area uses a standard guardian crystal.
Tanya: We should probe further to confirm that its main crystal does not need changes. Otherwise I will just add 4 quest hours for a subquest to confirm later.
Zoey: I say let's do it. XD I am about OOM for this type of task. I don't think I can help much but I'll stay. I think in that case it is better to just full rest. There is nothing urgent going on. Even if we find something you can do, you can do it tomorrow. Alright then. Tanya thanks all for helping.
🕰️ [9:57 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: We checked the history and trials of the fhird sister crystal. We found no evidence that there is a magic circle for the backup generator.
Tanya: This means we don't need to modify our guardian crystal. The next step for Serpent Cave is to judge relevant changes in its main crystal.

In order to let the soundtrack playing while going to a different chapter, the teleport section is now changed to preview! Clicking on it will not reload the page, except for CH12 and CH15, where preview is not working!
StarTree: And all of the default chapter view scripts are not working when previewed.

Evelyn: I'll fix CH15. 😖 Sorry we broke it. 💟 It is okay. 😊
Evelyn: StarTree, in the meantime, could you just set CH15 link to the same?
StarTree: The Kudos calendar will not load at all!
Evelyn: Eh...? 😅
Ivy: Have you tried moving CH15 scripts to the main script section?
StarTree: We'll try that now!
StarTree: It still doesn't auto load the calendar, but the calendar can display if it is clicked now!
StarTree: URL Param doesn't work anymore!
Ivy: How about not removing the URL script from CH15?
StarTree: It works now! Although it still doesn't auto-load in preview mode!
Evelyn: I am okay with that, thank you. 😊 Evelyn thanks P4, StarTree and Ivy.
🕰️ [8:11 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: How do we fix it for 3B's CH12? 😅
Ivy: There. Fixed.
Evelyn: So quick?!
Ivy: 3B just had the banner hidden by default. I just made it display by default.
Evelyn: Thank you! 😊

For the telephone section, any idea on Lost, Bored, or Information?

Zoey: For bored could we just link to Youtube? XD I guess that is one way to do it.
Evelyn: For within our website, maybe would be a good place? Too much words XD
Fina: I can't nominate . I don't think it is entertaining enough.
Tanya: I hope no one is bored within the guild, since we have a lot to do.
Zoey: That is so true XD
Ledia: I want to clean up the section.
Zoey: That's even more words! XD
Ledia: I think if we edit them and make better headlines, it could be interesting.
Zoey: Possible.
LRRH: How about we keep an eye on funny posts? The Bored telephone section will query posts marked with "funny".
Ledia: That's a solid idea.
LRRH: But to keep the intent, I think this post should also be marked as funny, although it isn't really funny. Who can save this with a joke?
Zoey: Why did the student eat his homework? Because the teacher told him it was going to be a piece of cake. XD Magic Bakery approved! Zoey is recognized as Joke Master!

Serpent Cave

The trials for Serpent Cave has been taking longer than anticipated. We are essentially stuck. We checked all the changes but there is still about 1/3 that we did not understand. And for the part that we understood, the existing spell seems convoluted
Ledia: So I propose we make our own streamlined spell. Unless someone has a better idea.

Tanya: I believe we only need to add some key symbols. The overall spell will still be the same unless we try to be very different, which I don't recommend.
Ledia: I just want to make sure that everything we add make sense to us, so that when someone goes wrong at least we know what we did. I don't feel I understand what is going on if I just try to copy the old spell. I see.
Ledia: So do I get the bless from the group to go forward?
Tanya: You have already done the spell crafting for the Tavern. It seems more efficient for the same person to craft the whole thing. You have my blessing, please proceed. Thank you.
Ledia: I will explain all the details in the field Master, so if you want to check my design you could check it there. Thank you.

Just want to make a small announcement that has been completely imported. The format was updated since last month, so Step 2, 3 and 4 still need to catch up. There is still more to do there. 😅

LRRH: Thank you, Evelyn!
StarTree: Congratulations, Evelyn! You have advanced to 2nd place on the leaderboard! Since Monday! Congratulations!
Ledia: The formatting there is really nice. I tried copying it for profiles but it hasn't worked yet. @Carrot has the perfect balance of information and simplicity. It is very pleasant to look at. 😊
Ledia: May I nominate @Carrot for best layout? Is it too early in the month to do that?
StarTree: Nominations are on-going! Evelyn's work at @Carrot is nominated for Best Layout!
Evelyn: By the way, I added happiness tags to show on the . To give it some variety. 😅
LRRH: How happy are you today, Evelyn?
Evelyn: I wanted to make the announcement, so I am at 8. 😊 You're not making the same 😁 expression though. It doesn't feel natural for me to make that face. 😅 This is a good time to practice it. How is this? 😄 That's a 7. Then I'll take a 7. 😄 Good job! 😁 Evelyns thanks all for the support. 😄

Arx Catacomb

There is an interesting idea going on at Arx Catacomb, can we make it happen?

Sasha: By my conscious decision, @Detectives does not keep a todo list. Every week or so I try to report what issue we solved or look for something with an issue.
Sasha: This week I see Tanya tried to update Arx Catacomb. There is a really interesting idea there, representing each logical fallacy has zombies, and imagining the viewer is going through a dungeon.
Sasha: But I imagine that it will be really hard to pull off. Unless we have actually played it.
Sasha: So I propose that we actually take some time to design that game and play it. And by doing so, we could review some concepts we learned from reading FATE Accelerated and FATE Core. What do you think?
Tanya: I am glad that you like the idea. Help is welcomed and requested. I am stuck trying to present it as a story. I was trying to avoid simply listing the fallacies because it would be too dry. But it was still too dry when I tried to present it as a story.
Sasha: I think you should first make a dry list, then we can discuss what zombie or monster the fallacy should be. Since the list has 24 fallacies, if they are all zombies might be too repetitive.
Sasha: So I propose these steps:
Sasha: 1) Make a section in Arx where you just list all the fallacies with a link to what they mean. Then...
Sasha: 2) We'll discuss what zombie/monster they are.
Sasha: 3) When we have a good number of them defined, we will start an actual game going through the dungeon.
Zoey: Question: If we all understand the fallacies, then we are already trained. Then in the game, we won't be using the fallacies, how do we give examples?
Tanya: There are plenty of examples if we go online.
Zoey: I'm fine if if we don't have to use fallacies just for demonstration XD
Sasha: Someone is really confident.
Evelyn: On the other hand I can't gaurantee. 😖 May I see the list of fallacies?
Zoey: We are talking about this list of 24 logic fallacies.
Sasha: Timeout. Let's list all of them in Arx first, before continuing the discussion.
Evelyn: Okay 😊
🕰️ [11:44 PM] 🕰️
Sasha: Step 1 completed. Sasha is recognized for the Magician Skill Timeout. I set it to Magician. Not trying to hijack your thread. Please continue. Congratulations to me!
Sasha: Any idea on the monsters?
Zoey: I see Special Pleading as a ghost type monster. They keep dodging, it is hard to hit. I agree. I'm adding that note as comments in the html code for now because other it will look super messy without proper formatting. I think you can show it in parentheses. It is easier when we think about it after the discussion. Good call.
Ledia: Then Loaded Question should be Jack-o'-Lantern that can explode. Super appropriate! I'm really liking this theme. It can be our Halloween Special. XD It sounds really fun. 😊
Tanya: Then can Strawman be a Shadow Reaper? Instead of attacking the hero, it can deal damage by attacking the hero's shadow. Sounds like a Boss. I like it. 😁
Sasha: I see we lost the original zombie. How about Band Wagon is the Zombie. And it comes in a horde. I second that, seems fitting.
Evelyn: How about Appeal to Emotion be a crying girl? They lure the heroes into traps. Good one!
Sasha: Should we keep going or should we stop?
Evelyn: @Ivy would you like to pick one?
Ivy: I would see Fallacy Fallacy as a moving suit of armor that is overly strict. I can picture it.
Sasha: Should we continue tomorrow when there are more people online? It is late and I think it might be a good idea if everyone who remotely wants to play gets a chance to define a monster.
Evelyn: That's a good idea, maybe Sylvia would be interested.
Zoey: We have plenty options left, should I cast a flare tomorrow? XD
Tanya: We need a proper URL to cast a flare.
Zoey: I'll do that tomorrow. Consider it done XD
Tanya: Thank you all for helping. It was very helpful.
Sasha: Thank you for the great idea! Tanya thanks the group for making the game together.

June 11, 2022 Saturday 9:34 AM
Arx Catacomb

Yesterday we stated a thread discussing what monster would be fitting to represent each locial fallacy. is updated to show the list. Let's continue the discussion.

Ledia: So if I have more ideas, can I say it or should I wait? I have no idea. I just post things XD @Sasha, @Tanya?
Evelyn: I think it is better to wait. It is hard for new comers to add a suggestion if everything is already defined. 😅 If you do that I am being kept at 8. 😁 I'm at 7. 😄
LRRH: I want to add a pudding monster.
Zoey: There goes the theme! XD
Evelyn: I think it would be fun if you summon puddings to fight monsters. So puddings are on our side. Okay. Nice save, Evelyn.
Sasha: Did Zoey just use Slippery Slope? Yes or No?
Ledia: I would say... Yes? For all we know, a pudding monster could have a halloween theme. And halloween is somewhat about sweets, if we go for a more E rated theme with lighter tone.
Evelyn: I think that is a good point. Candy monsters would actually fit and it would be cute. 😃
Zoey: 🤔
Sasha: Cardinal, Activate Catacomb Protocol! Zoey used Logical Fallacy: Slippery Slope and takes 1 damage.
Cardinal: What monster is Slippery Slope?
LRRH: Can that be the pudding monster?
Ledia: I was thinking it would be a slime monster because it is slippery, but I can also see slime, jelly, and pudding being the same monster type.
Tanya: I think the situation is not whether the pudding can be the monster, but that it was the monster that Zoey fell for and took 1 damage.
Zoey: It is official! I got attacked by a pudding. I added it to the list. XD
LRRH: The pudding monster looks firm, but once it is hit it turns runny makes it really slippery and heroes would fall into traps. It is a bait XD It is cute, I like it. 😊
Tanya: Should I change @Concept to @Catacomb? I think that would be a more fun charter code.
Ledia: Then what about @Dungeon? If we are going to lighter tone. @Catacomb is darker. I think @Dungeon is more fun.
Tanya: @StarTree, could you make the change to @Dungeon?
StarTree: It's done! Please update the charter when you have time! Thank you.
Sasha: @Cardinal, @StarTree, want to define monster?
StarTree: StarTree is now thinking!
Cardinal: Vampires for Genetics. Perfect choice!
StarTree: This is too hard for StarTree!
Evelyn: StarTree, what monster do you picture in the dungeon?
StarTree: Fungi and spores! They hallucinate the heroes slowly so the heroes have no idea!
Tanya: Maybe Appeal to Nature?
Ledia: That seems like the best fit. But for Appeal to Nature I would picture a mana fountain that is actually a foutain of poison.
Sasha: That could be the result of hallucination.
StarTree: StarTree doesn't have good ideas!
Evelyn: I think that was a good idea. Nothing else so far would be constantly there and become unnoticed. That is unique.
Sylvia: What about a mimic? The treasure chest monster. The heroes might get used to looting and seeing treasure chests. But they are not all good.
Tanya: What fallacy do you want that to be?
Sylvia: Composition/Division.
Ledia: I can sort of see that.
Evelyn: Now I also have a second idea. 😖
Ledia: About something new or something that already has a monster?
Evelyn: Something new. 😖
Ledia: I think it should be fine, I am out of ideas anyway.
Casey: What are you all doing? Who wants to go treasure hunting?
Evelyn: We are coming up with monster ideas to represent logical fallacies. Would you like to add an idea?
Casey: How about False Levers that look like they are for the door but sets off traps? For False Cause.
Ledia: No dungeon is complete without a lever or two.
Zoey: But is a lever a monster? 🤔
Casey: Does it have to be a monster?
Tanya: That's Zoey's prompt. I think anything that can defeat the heroes is okay.
Zoey: Added, but I'll leave the title for now because I don't know what to change it to. XD
Evelyn: Could we continue after treasure hunt?
Sasha: We don't need to define all of them before moving to Step 3. I think we have enough ideas, so we should fresh out what the game is. When we come back, could we move on to Step 3: Starting a game? We can still take further ideas as we play.
Sasha: I want to at least start a game before the weekend is over.
Evelyn: I'm fine with that. 😊 Zoey thanks all for the lesson XD

202206112107|Context
June 11, 2022 Saturday 9:07 PM
Arx Dungeon

For the first training exercise, my plan was to go online and spot examples of people using a logical fallacy.
Tanya: The purpose of this training is to be aware of them so we don't use logical fallacy. Then we can train on what to do when it is used against us or against someone else.

Evelyn: Does the context of the argument matter?
Tanya: That is up to you.
Sasha: Hold on a second. I had an idea on how we present this so it would be fun to read. On this channel, we could just talk and discuss without RP. But this shouldn't be the main story.
Tanya: In my vision we are doing this mainly for us. My priority is that we are trained and we have fun doing it. Whether someone will have fun reading it is secondary.
Sasha: I don't want to prioritize them. I think it is better if it is also fun to read, and if we are clear about that goal, even if you call it secondary or a bonus, then we could train in a way that will get both done by going through the exercise once.
Zoey: I think if it is fun for someone else to read then it will be fun for us to read later. I want that if it is not too hard to do. Is there a plan for that?
Sasha: Can we fix the context of the training? In the story, we are peacemaker heroes, and we are going through the Arx Dungeon. Do our hero characters know that they are fighting monster that represent logical fallacies, or are they trying to clear the dungeon of monsters?
Ledia: My undrstanding so far is that our heroes are there to train on how to fight monsters. Whether those monsters are dummy monsters or actual monsters infesting the dungeon is up to the GM.
Tanya: That was my intent. Our characters are training to fight monsters. The context has nothing to do with logical fallacies.
Sasha: I think if we do that we will miss out too many dialogue about logical fallacies. The story will become a generic dungeon crawl.
Evelyn: I cannot really picture what it means if it is not a generic dungeon crawl. 😅
Sasha: How about we start the story as a generic dungeon crawl, where the character believe that they are to clear monsters. But as they progress, they would discover the monster's weak points if they understand their connection to logical fallacies?
Tanya: I think that is not necessary because we defined the monsters using analogy, and the reader already know the relation. For the first training, we are just trying to spot the monsters. For future training, when we try to do something about them, only effective response in real life against those fallacies would give an effective result. We will not be rolling dice to determine the result. We will response in real life, and let what happens in real life be the result.
Tanya: And when it works, the player character is recognized for their skill that works, and gets a treasure item.
Zoey: I got a Fact-check bow. Sorry I forgot what its official name was. XD
StarTree: It was a quiver of fact checking! On Decemmber 9th 2021! 6 months ago XD
Evelyn: And I have a Sanctuary Staff. It was anti zombie, but now zombies are... reapers.
Tanya: When the Sanctuary Staff is activated, there is an aura of light so the heroes would have no shadows for reapers to attack.
Sasha: Okay, so we have two characters who already have been to the dungeon and had gotten treasures: A bow and staff. What is Ledia's story? Did Ledia work at the dungeon?
Ledia: In real life yes. In the story maybe. It is hard roleplaying experience when I have no experience about this game dungeon.
Sasha: Actually how about you tell us a little more about the Arx Dungeon in real life? What were you doing there? What was the purpose?
Ledia: The gist is that the Arx Sealing Team seals monsters and evil beings at its vault. We clean them up section by section. There is a huge backlog but it is has many layers of barriers. When a team is ready, we unseal a section and clean it up.
Ledia: Because of the barriers, it is relatively low risk even if we fail. So practically the whole vault is training ground. It is not particularly stressful working there.
Sasha: It sounds like a huge prison.
Ledia: Yes, except sealeing being are not exactly "alive" while they are seal. They are in the same condition when they were sealed until they are unsealed. All they know is that they were fighting Arx Knight in the field, the Arx Knight casts a spell, and the next thing they know is future Arx Knights waiting for them in full health.
Zoey: Then in this case, it wasn't really an evil wizard trying to invade the catacomb.
Ledia: It is not. We put them there.
Evelyn: Could we use the same context? If it is easier for Ledia to keep her story?
Tanya: That is fine.
Sasha: Then the rough context is the newer peacemakers Evelyn and Zoey are going to the Arx for training, where Ledia is their guide. Who else is going?
Tanya: The original concept, and the context was that as Queen Vivi tried to excavate the Cardinal Castle buried underground, Hospitalian Knights joined force with Arx on a mission to clear the closest catacomb site to Cardinal Castle to strengthen defense against Queen Vivi.
Tanya: We don't want Queen Vivi to take that site and unseal monsters there as her minions.
Tanya: So the Hospitalian Knights are in charge there calling for help from known heroes to clear that site.
Ledia: Do you mean Arx is in charge of the site, but HK is in charge of calling heroes from Panarcadia?
Tanya: Yes.
Ledia: That arrangement might make sense because Arx doesn't normally open their vault for others to level up. And adventurers typically won't accept the terms and conditions there anyway.
Evelyn: What are the terms and conditions?
Ledia: You have to link your soul to Arx Core, so that the Arx and monitor you as you fight the monster and learn your skills. When you fight there you are training yourself and Arx Core. Arx Core has a copy of your soul. It uses that to raise people who dies fighting in the vault.
Tanya: I think we are close to the limit of being E rated.
Zoey: That doesn't sound like a bad deal if that makes you practically immortal.
Ledia: If we are at the E rating limit, I have to think about whether I can comment on that.
Sasha: In the story, Panarcadia heroes can already be raised, so that is not something we need to talk about. We can just assume that every heroes can be raised. There is no motive to join Arx just to be raised.
Ledia: Agreed. And I am not recruiting here.
Tanya: Back to the context. In terms of number of players, since the arrangement is that Hospitalian Knights will call on heroes for each chamber they unlock, any hero may just drop in if they think they have the suitable skill to deal with the particular monster.
Tanya: In the story, the main purpose is to clear the dungeon, not to train the heroes. For our players at the Blogger Guild level, this story exists to train us.
Sasha: That is somewhat confusing. We should clearly mark which goal is the non-RP guild goal and which goals are the RP goals.
Tanya: Noted.
Sasha: But overall that is a good description. It should be summarized in the story. My earlier point was this discussion should be a footnote, not what a read will read first when they arrive th Chapter 16.
Sasha: Let's continue tomorrow with spotting a monster.

202206120921|Frugivorous?
June 12, 2022 Sunday 9:21 AM
Arx Dungeon

The Hospitalian Knights is continuing their mission to clear the Arx Dungeon closest to the buried Cardinal Castle. At the command post there, Tanya looks for the next monster to clear. For this thread, I want to try a convention where we use the bubble only for non-RP comments. Please use chat mode only for RP content.

Evelyn: Evelyn reports to the Arx Dungeon to help spot the next monster. Are we going to Twitter to look for a discussion where a logical fallacy is used? Yes, but it doesn't have to be from Twitter. Any source is fine. Red argues at Twitter so there should be many examples. I found something, is it okay if I link to it? I think that is fine. @LRRH? It is okay linking to Twitter when we are not hurting anyone. How is Red related in the story? Little Red Riding Hood scouts and routinely sends information to the alliance. So in this particular case, why did you bookmark it? I wanted to know whether humans are "Frugivorous" and not "omnivorous". Evelyn, LRRH, in the story, if you are doing this, you are already in an unsealed chamber. You are exploring the dungeon to tell if there is a monster. Do you want to RP that context?
LRRH: When Evelyn arrived Little Red Riding Hood was already exploring the dungeon and found what looks like a treasure chest. So she opens it. Little Red Riding Hood is the kind of character who would just open chests without defusing traps when she is alone. Because she has Auto-Revive, so in general it doesn't matter if it sets off a trap. If you do that in the story I think it is better to roll the dice. But my priority is to get to logical fallacies, so the chest opens without issue.
LRRH: Inside the chest, there was a scroll. The scroll claims that humans are "Frugivores" which are different from "Omnivores')". Is that the truth?
LRRH: Red thinks that wouldn't that be convenient if that is the truth? Many animal will be spared if humans learn that they are not supposed to be eating meat.
Evelyn: From the command post, Evelyn saw that Red had already checked in and caught up to Red.
Evelyn: "I think we should ask Ivy or Zoey to check the authenticity of the scroll." Question: Did Evelyn just use Appeal to Authority?
Evelyn: "I want to confirm the meaning of the term. I am not sure what 'Frugivorous' means. Also, the list show many characteristics, are they the full range of the characteristics in each category, or did the maker of the scroll hide the truth that each category have a wider range of characteristics?" I wanted to know whether that list was cherry-picking, but we don't yet have a monster for that. 😅 I think since the game is on, if you have an idea for a term that doesn't have a monster, you could just define it even if you had defined some before. I don't have an idea for cherry-picking, but I thought Minions could be the monsters for Appeal to Authority. Bananas? I meant gargoyles, demon hounds, and other familiars commanded or controlled by some authority like a wizard. I am looking up what is going on.
Zoey: Zoey arrives at the dungeon and learns about the situation. I added Demon Hounds as the monster type because "minions" is not specific enough. The long description includes your other examples. Thank you. Any idea on what Cherry-Picking would be? How about Skeleton Archers? If you fire an arrow at them, the arrow tends to just go through them, and the pick up your arrows and fire it back. That's a pretty good match. Added. And Evelyn didn't use Appeal to Authority. She was just asking for the definition of the terms which presumably both the speaker and a competent listener would agree on. Sasha, do you agree? I agree. In the story you could say you have fended off some demon hounds.
Ledia: Ledia arrived at the chamber and saw red growing eyes of demon hounds down a hallway. She skates down the hall at a surprising speed to the hounds and KO'ed them easily.
Evelyn: That surprised Evelyn also. She had not seen Ledia move like that.
Ledia: "These were my skates when I was working at Arx Vault. We used them to skate down long halls of cleared chambers when there were no teleports in between. It was fun."
Ledia: Ledia was wearing her Arx uniform, which was described as a battle nun uniform with light armor pieces. Okay. Fact 1: Frugivore refers to animals that primarily eats raw fruits. It doesn't mean that the animal cannot digest other food, or other foods are harmful. What about Omnivorous? Fact 2: Omnivores refers to animals that are capable of digesting and surviving by eating both plants and animals. Omnivore describes a being's physiological capability. Being an Frugivore describes a being's diet preference, which might be situational specific to the evironment they live in. An Frugivore can either also be a Herbivore or an Omnivore. And I found an article discussing specifically this topic and refers to the memes. Zoey, how would you describe what your character is doing in the dungeon?
Zoey: Zoey arrives with another scroll she retrieve from the archive and started comparing the two.
Zoey: "The scroll I brought is long. It might take some time to understand it."
Ledia: "Why don't we skip to the conclusion of the scroll?" Ledia thought and read ahead. The Long scroll made that conveniently possible without disturbing Zoey.
Ledia: The conclusion of the scroll Zoey brought stated that humans benefit the most from a mostly plant-based diet, but not strictly herbivore diet. Although their most recent ancestors are frugivores, humans are better adapted for higher starch and higher vegetables diet than higher fruit diet. So what do we make out of this information if it is true? The Twitter post originally claimed having a carnivorous diet is not healthy and not natural for humans. And this scroll doesn't say that humans are Frugivores. I think so far it is clear of any logical fallacy.
Evelyn: If the scroll Zoey brought is truthful, the one Red found seems to be authentic. But it doesn't say what Red thought it meant.
Evelyn: The scroll didn't say humans are frugivores.
LRRH: What do you call a diet that is high starch and high vegetables?
Zoey: I can't find a name for that.
Evelyn: I think as long as it is reasonably affordable, it is better to minimize harm to other beings. So even if human are evolutionarily carnivores, if we should choose to harm no one if we can.
Evelyn: If we choose to harm others just because we are evolutionarily adapted to doing so, that would be an argument of Genetics. That is Vampirism. So far this section is clear. Evelyn, do you want to conclude it?
Evelyn: Satisfied that the scroll Red found was harmless, Evelyn blesses it with an anti-vampirism spell.
May our conscience guide us to goodness free from inherited habits.
Evelyn is recognized for Cleric Skill Anti-Vampire Enchantment. We didn't identify an actual fallacy. But we did vet a piece of information and prevented misuse of it. We are preventing ourselves from arguing veganism from an evolutionary point of view. I think that is a good result. I think as a result, the enchantment Evelyn put on the scroll is worth more than the scroll itself. I think the information from the scroll is interesting and informative also. An I am sure people put a lot of effort to do the survey and science to obtain that comparison. 😅 But in terms of a logical argument for veganism, the focus on not hurting others is more important than what we are made of. Yes. If anyone here tried to conclude that "Because humans are closer to frugivores therefore humans should eat fruits", then it would either be Appeal to Genetics or Appeal to Nature. Evelyn protected the group before the group was attacked. Clerics don't get enough credits when they have no idea what issues they prevented with just words. Evelyn is worth more than she thinks of herself. That's very kind of you two. 😊 Evelyn thanks the party for the lesson.

202206121500|Music thingy
June 12, 2022 Sunday 3:00 PM
Music Room

Ivy said that if we want to include music in our normal post, we could add a music thingy. What is a music thingy?

Ivy: I meant you could make a list of div. In each divyou put the code you want that can play the music, and tag each div like we tag posts. Then when you to display them, you can JQuery them as a list. From a post, you could make a function such as PlayMusic("Fort Arsenal") that would do "the same." What you could do further is that PlayMusic JQueries and starts playing music at a specific div at the side panel. But I think for it to start playing, your div objects need to contain links to MP3, not musescore. It is just musescore, the user will still need to click on play. In that case it won't make a lot of use to pin it at the side bar.
P4: P4 will start with making a list. Where should the list be? Is it a post or a page?
Ivy: It doesn't matter. Wherever you put it, only the function needs to know where it actually is.
P4: Actually, where can I upload mp3?
P4: I want to try this, but it doesn't work if I put the mp3 in Google Drive.
Ivy: I guess you could try Github.
P4: It doesn't work?
Ivy: Add "?raw=true" at the end. ref 💟
🕰️ [5:01 PM] 🕰️
P4: We got banned from Musescore again. ╰(*°▽°*)╯
Ivy: It is probably automatic if you refresh the links too often when you test the page.
P4: I asked Musescore to unblock us and promised to be good. 💟 ... by not embedding so many scores on the same page.
P4: Since we can now post mp3, I posted some old ones.
Zoey: What are ? sound like actual sound track XD P4 doesn't know. 💟

Magic bakery

The telephone section has two sections left untouched: Lost and Information. Any idea on what should go there?

Tanya: For Info it can point to the For lost, maybe to .
LRRH: When was the last time someone feels lost?
Tanya: There is so much to do.
LRRH: What if people are just being distracted by what they can do instead of what they really want to do?
Tanya: Chapter 11 can take care of that.
LRRH: I guess you are right. 💟

What are must-haves on our profiles here? Or, what do you really want to know from other's or your own profile here?

Vivi: I want to know how they get their credits.
Ledia: Is it that important? You asked. So I answered. Fair enough.
LRRH: I want to know people's wishes.
Ledia: That was on the membership form.
Ivy: I think the profile should have the levels the character has. And those levels shouldn't be higher than then overall level. You did that for the profile cards. They should be on the main profile.
Ledia: I could start with their contributions, then their wishes, followed by their level allocations. This has no resemblence to FATE.
Ivy: I think only you know FATE here.
Vivi: I only care about the scores. I thought you were going to update a person every week.
Ledia: We already did the top scorers. Who else do you want to know?
Vivi: @StarTree, who is the next top scorer that we hadn't profiled?
StarTree: It is StarTree! Ranking 4th in the guild! Score distribution: 38% Daily Quest, 33% Guild Quest, 29% Cardinal. StarTree is the score leader of @Board!
Vivi: I want something more helpful. What is your average score per day in June?
StarTree: It is 8.3!
Vivi: In that case, I want you to put three stars for Daily Quest and Guild Quest, and two stars for Cardinal Quest.
StarTree: Like this?
Evelyn: Aww~~ It's cute!! 😍
Vivi: Yes. And I want a short description when I click on each row.
StarTree: Done!
Evelyn: That's so cute!! Wee~~!
Ledia: Yes it looks really nice! And motivating.
Ivy: I want to give StarTree an Admin badge at her profile.
Vivi: That doesn't help me, unless you want StarTree to handle all administrative tasks.
Ivy: It is not about authority but recognition.
Vivi: I think I got what I want for now. So I won't comment on what you want.
LRRH: StarTree, I think I asked for your wish before but you didn't have one. Has it changed?
StarTree: StarTree doesn't have a wish!
Evelyn: But I really like partying with StarTree. StarTree is kind, helpful, and funny. 😊 That is so true.
LRRH: Should there be a fellow member comments section?
Ivy: There shouldn't be, otherwise you would have to write something nice for everyone.
LRRH: Why is that a problem?
Ivy: When you run out of genuine comments, it will show and it will make people feel bad.
Evelyn: I think we should aim to have fun and make fond memories together. If we can see who is left out, then it make us want to include them and do something for them.
Ledia: I think that's the way to go. I'm not contesting.
Evelyn: Should we have a fond memories section for StarTree?
Ivy: How about calling that funny moments or highlights?
Evelyn: I hope that wouldn't create too much expectations. 😅
Ledia: Should we JQuery every story moment with StarTree?
Evelyn: I think that would be a good start! Then we can review and choose. 😃
Ledia: Let's call that section "StarTree moments".
Evelyn: That's a very good name! 😄
Ledia: I am adding the tag "data-moment-StarTree". Evelyn: Okay. 😊
Evelyn: This turns out to be a pretty hard task because we have so many posts. And I remember there are many fond memories at Google Slides that we haven't imported. 😖
Ledia: I guess we should have a habit of marking tagging them from now on...
Ledia: Anyway, this is what we have so far.
Evelyn: StarTree, we love you. 😊 Evelyn thanks StarTree for all the wonderful moments.
StarTree: This makes StarTree feel like this is her birthday! Wee~~!
StarTree: StarTree will also start tagging posts for happy moments for everyone!
Ledia: Let's all do it.
Evelyn: Yes, I like this a lot. 😊 Ledia thanks everyone for huge breakthrough for the profiles.

202206142047|Championship
June 14, 2022 Tuesday 8:47 PM
Ageless Forest

For Philosophy Arena, I want to setup a championship. The contestants would be different philosphies, and each contestant may post a situation for other philosophies to solve. Each contestant can propose their best solution for the situation. Then other contestant may find flaws of their solution, for example, when they propose a solution that uses something contradicting their principle.
Fina: In this post I want to discuss the scoring in order to determine the champion.

Fina: About the scoring: A contestant gets one point for providing a solution according to their principles to the prompt.
Fina: Next, the solution gets extra points based on the ranking scale at Seed of Peace. That is +0 for Conquest, +1 for Control, +2 for Compete, +3 for Coexist, +4 for Cooperate, +5 for Celebrate.
Fina: As you see, the scale is set to favor Celebrate as the highest ranking. Those who want Conquest to get the most points could make a different ranking.
Vivi: What constitutes a valid solution? If the prompt is: "A neighboring country is attacking your country", and your answer is: "we celebrate the invasion" does that answer score 5 points?
Fina: No, because that reaction does not stop the conquest, so the resulting solution type is still conquest. That is +0.
Vivi: If I say: "My country will defend itself" then what is my score?
Fina: For what reason are people in your country defending the country? For example, if you say they must fight or be executed, then your solution is still +0. That answered my question.
Evelyn: I think this is easier to understand than what we started in the manga. 😃
Sasha: But if each contestant may only have one question, it will be really hard to pick a question to start.
Fina: Each contestant can propose multiple questions, but they may only choose one for the scoring. So when they think of a situation where they can score higher, they would write it up and swap the prompt. If they are already at +5 for their prompt, they can try to come up with another prompt where other contestants will score lower.
Sasha: That's a good method, there's no need to hold back posting new prompts. 👍
Fina: Naturally, I will be a contestant for Stewardism. I am not going to ask anyone else to participate. Buf if no one else participates, Stewardism will show as the sole champion.
Evelyn: In the manga I played for communism, but I don't really understand it. 😅
Fina: If you want you can play as "What Evelyn thinks Communism is" until a more knowledgeable contestant takes your place and answers the prompts for you.
Zoey: Or you could cite arguments people make when they promote communism. XD
Evelyn: I think I should first consider whether I want to roleplay that at all. 😅
Tanya: If our aim is not to rank existing philosophies than it shouldn't matter whether communism is a contestant. I will compete as Hospitalian.
Zoey: Then we are fighting among ourselves. XD
Tanya: Not necessarily. In this scoring system, we could draw. Tanya receives
Evelyn: Maybe I should play as Arcacian? 😅
Fina: Yes you should. Arcacian Ambassador.
Zoey: The nomination was a setup for the challenge! XD 😄
Fina: So who wants to set the stage at Chapter 23?
Zoey: Nothing gets done at Chapter 23 when Fina can't boss 3B around XD
Evelyn: I guess I could try formatting the page. Although I can't promise that it will look very good. 😅
Fina: If it doesn't I'll let you know.
Evelyn: Okay. Thank you. 😅
Zoey: It should be the other way around. Fina is so ungrateful. XD
Fina: I am being grateful enough for coming once a while. I don't need to be here at all. That's ... true. 😅
Evelyn: I'm sorry, Fina! We've been slacking so much and didn't follow through with what you taught us since... Chapter 4. I will start making the Arena right away. Thank you for your invaluable guidance! We're very grateful for your visits! 😖🙏 That's more like it. OMG I feel sorry for Evelyn. XD Then help her build Arena. This is your guild, you are from the same team. It is so mean but kind of right at the same time XD
Fina: It is completely right. I expect visible result for us to comment on in this thread.
Zoey: I feel like now I know what happened to 3B XD
Sasha: I want to laugh but... but...
Fina: It's too late. Go help your team. And that other cat who is still reading this.
Tanya: This is not my forte. I also need help at @Dungeon. Excuse accepted.
Sasha: It's so unfair!
Vivi: It's okay Sasha, I'll laugh in your place. Mhahahahaha!! XD 🤣
Evelyn: Fina, how is this? We added numbers on the left for the scores. The next step is to fill it with principles and post challenge questions.
Fina: Good. Arena Quest "Format new arena page" is complete. Arena Quest "Define scoring rules" is complete. Fina thanks Evelyn and Zoey for taking care of the page. Seriously it is getting so cozy here, it makes me want to just update this blog. XD 😄 It is kind of exciting seeing this. I look forward to seeing the challenge questions and answers.
Fina: I nominated Chapter 23 for best scoreboard. What is the highlight of the nomination?
Fina: I nominate it for the brilliant style combining score, title, participants and a bright color code. We had not have a team scoreboard. This is the first. Copy! Which team shall I join? XD Fina thanks all for the attention.

202206152050|Step by Step
June 15, 2022 Wednesday 8:50 PM
Magic Detectives

We are missing something that show dependencies of subquests for Cardinal Quest. So I propose adding something in the planner to show dependencies. However, I forgot what it was that I saw to have such dependencies. Anyone remember what it was?

Tanya: Are you talking about Sapphire 898? We might need to craft that into a shield. Yes. That, and more.
Casey: Don't ALL of them have dependencies? We are waiting for many crafting materials.
Sasha: There are two kinds of dependencies. The ones where we wait for something done so we can finish the quest, and the ones where we need to tell someone else to do something so they can do their part before we can finish the quest. I was talking about the second type.
Casey: They are both important
Tanya: We need to tell others when they are behind, and we also need to tell ourselves when we are behind. It is the same problem. Technically I don't care when someone else is behind. But I get your point. And we should care.
Tanya: Let's redo the back calculation first because the one on the planner is outdated.
Tanya: The updated handover date is July 22. How did we get a month extension? XD With help from Hospitalian Knights. Hospitalian Knights--Our Deus Ex Machina. XD
Ledia: Hey, if we are playing FATE, "Hospitalian Knights saves the day" would be a good Aspect for Tanya. It is not the time to celebrate yet.
Sasha: No that won't be good enough because it is not double edged. It should be something like, "We are in debt to Hospitalian Knights." or something. That does sound better. It is more playable. Order! Order! XD
Sasha: Okay. So by the grace of Hospitalian Knights, the handover date is postponed to July 22, and I edited the planner with new dates for the quest hour bins.
Casey: I heard that some of the crafting materials won't arrive until July 20.
Sasha: This is beyond what I wanted to talk about originally, but let's first put all the known material arrival dates on the planner.
Sasha: Now, on to what I wanted to talk about. Should we go through each spawn point? Let's start with the Sapphire Shield, then maybe the Ruby 948 if we have time left.
Tanya: For the Shield, we are waiting for a template, and we need to learn how to enchant. We also need to know how to enchant for Exchange and Shaft spawn points.
Sasha: Okay. Please wait while I summarize the steps on the planner.
Sasha: It is not too hard having it somwhere on the planner. Should I spread it out on specific dates instead of having it outside the schedule?
Tanya: How about make a dummy bin after this Friday and put them there. Then it is close enough so we will see it every day, and easy to move sub quests we don't finish this week. That's a great idea!
Sasha: With that, the Planner became slightly more useful!
Zoey: Sasha, I've just realized that the planner is really a Quest Journal.
Sasha: I can see that somewhat, but it would need to look much nicer for me to call that a Quest Journal. Right now it is more like a quest list.
Casey: I am planning to upgrade @Treasure to have information and stories per location. I could do Arsenal mines first.
Zoey: I think that will be useful.
Sasha: Go for it, Casey! 👍 Sasha thanks the team for the discussion.

202206162302|Dungeon Cleanup
June 16, 2022 Thursday 11:02 PM
Arx Dungeon

Tanya arrived at Arx Dungeon when Red had already opened another chamber. This thread continues the convention that CHAT is for RP and BUBBLE is for non-RP.

LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood found poison spores! This shows people drinking milk from a cow and implies an argument that drinking cow milk is bad because it is unnatural.
Tanya: Yes. Clearly. Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for Detect Poison.
Tanya: This chamber has many more monsters if someone else wants to come spot them. I don't know if we should link there. In that thread, there are bad words if you scroll down. 😅 @Red? Evelyn, what should I do instead? I wanted to have a link so people may see example in its context, and the other examples in the thread. Perhaps we could just paraphrase the argument? Regardless whether we will remove the link after discussion, paraphrasing is good practice. We don't know whether that link will work in the future, and it saves them from leaving the page. I am against external links in general because for almost everywhere on this blog, if you jump to another page, you can't jump back to where you were. Very compelling. Will it be okay if every external link comes with a pop up? The pop up will warn you that you are leaving the site. It tells you the link points to, then if you want you can click on it or open to a new tab. That is probably better. @Ivy, @StarTree, can you implement? If you want to include an external URL, please use function "ExURL". We'll add the message in that function later. StarTree finished with confirmation message and showed Vivi how to test it! Much MUCH better. Now if you could protect all the existing links. There are 1866 instances to check! I'm sorry. I'll make sure my chapter uses ExURL. 😖 There shouldn't be that many to fix. The template must be using a lot of jumps. Does StarTree not need to guard jumps within the blog? Please start with external jumps. They should have the "mbbuttonEx" class already. 290! I can't believe we did so much already... 😖 This calls for Regular Expressions. StarTree is almost done changing them. 😭 I don't know whether it will work. Please finish it this time. I will ask someone who knows better. For next time. StarTree is done! But... StarTree doesn't know how to replace the existing archive without deleting it...! 😭 Arg... That sounds like a bad idea. Let's replace them page by page like Evelyn said if you can't wait for a verdict on regular expressions. I'm sorry for going off topic and for the trouble. 😖 Evelyn thanks the group for taking her request seriously. Let's continue next time.
Tanya: RP OFF: In the discussion above, we decided that external links should use the new function "ExURL" which will invoke a popup message instead of jumping directly. The popup allows the viewer to see the target url and cancel the jump.
Tanya: The reason of this change is to accidental jumps, especially on mobile because it is not obvious where the jumps are, and our site is missing the function to undo a jump to return to the same view.

202206172005|FATE points
June 17, 2022 Friday 8:05 PM
Cardinal Core

We have been reading the FATE game system for a while now. One of its main concept is fate points. To summarize, fate points are used like mana to power up skill and change the course of the story. Your earn them by letting your character get into complications. That system sets FATE apart from other systems, and Cardinal Core doesn't have that concept. Should Cardinal Core have that concept?

Ledia: To me, fate points are like the rage bar in a fighting game. When your character takes hits, their rage bar charges up, then you can unleash super moves. It is a mechanism that allows the underdog to overcome, thus creates dramatic results.
Evelyn: It feels strange if we intentionally put ourselves in a pinch. 😅 You also get fate points for being in-character. No, I think only when your being in-character leads to a complication. If you are just being in-character in a good way, you don't get fate points.
Ledia: For example, when Evelyn enters a dungeon she casts Protect. That is in-character but she won't get fate points for that, unless we were told we shouldn't cast protect but she did it out of habit anyway. Then if she accept that she would mess up in that situation, she gets a fate point.
Evelyn: I think if we simply play in-character, we don't really need fate points to be in-character. We would already mess up naturally. 😅
Zoey: Like that time when Ledia tried to cast chain lightning in Arsenal. 😉 But I didn't get anything for being entertaining. But I think it was funny because it was genuine. You weren't trying to create drama. It was you. 😊
Evelyn: And for being entertaining, you would get a moment for your profile. True.
Sasha: So I see one against fate points. Is there anyone FOR it?
Ledia: In boss fights, it is easy to get into a situation where the heroes are low on mana. so the end of the fight simply drags on, as we only have basic attacks left. The end of a fight is usually, "That was a long fight, thank god it is over."
Ledia: Fate points is a way to change that. If we don't use fate points, what else can we use?
Tanya: For the Hellapagos boss fight, there was a round limit. If the heroes couldn't finish the boss, the boss escapes and the heroes lose. At the last round, the heroes would just have to invent new ways to cooperate and stack up their advantages to make the final blow.
Tanya: I think it did fine making it a team effort.
Zoey: The way I remembered it was we tried to be too dramatic but the dice didn't work out. It might be easier if we just hacked on it with basic attacks instead of trying to combo. XD
Ledia: 3B was trying to draw lightning to nuke the boss. I don't remember exactly why that didn't work. I don't remember how the fight ended.
Zoey: It was the dice XD
Tanya: I think what happened was, when the boss is close to KO'ed, Cardinal followed the dice more faithfully. The heroes need to stack up the advantages more.
Zoey: It's too long ago I don't remember XD
Evelyn: I remembered Vivi comboed with light for Shadow Bind. Evelyn receives
Ledia: Yes that was awesome.
Sasha: So do we have a conclusion about the rage gauge?
Tanya: My conclusion is that the players need to remember that if they don't think hard, the drag at the end will happen. That drag is realistic. Everyone is tired and out of mana. How do you keep the opportunity and end the quest? That is part of the challenge to the players.
Tanya: If we go by a rage gauge mechanism, then Evelyn won't need to cast Protect and we would all be more reckless than who we really are. We'll all be out of character.
Evelyn: I think if we are playing in-character, our character won't be able to consider or talk about "fate points" because they don't make sense inside the story. I can understand it if I helped someone and they gave me magic item that I can use in a pinch. I can't understand if I need to put my character in a pinch to gain an advantage later. There is no causality in the story. 😅
Sasha: Ledia?
Ledia: I do enjoy the fact that we are already playing in character. I don't think fate points would make us play out of character because you can only get fate points by being in character. I guess what I might be asking, is that good roleplayers get an advantage or bonus until they use it in the session. Then when it comes to a fight, they can use those bonus when their die roll is bad. I understand that this has nothing to do with casuality.
Tanya: Instead of simply rewarding drama, the GM could reward relevant behavior. For example, an observant character can see where they can get an advantage in the surrounding. And they become recognized as an observant character by paying attention and be observant during other parts of the story. Then their leveling up their observant skill and their being able to use that skill to get advantages would make sense.
Ledia: That's quite compelling. I don't have further arguments
Sasha: Okay. So far we are mostly against using fate points because it breaks causality. Should we keep reading fate? we are at about page 80/300.
Ledia: I think the parts about aspect is helpful.
Evelyn: I think we can skim through many parts because we don't need to know how to play FATE if we aren't adopting its mechanisms. I think our dice mechanism with advantages is simpler.
Sasha: I think that's good enough for now. In the meantime we could look for the next thing to read. Sasha thanks the group for feedbacks.

June 21, 2022 Tuesday 8:41 PM
Magic Bakery

The guild has a situation. It is not exactly an emergency, but some of you want to be in the know, so this is the thread.

James: Here is the situation. Someone stopped paying rent since May. By July it will be the third month. So we are about to start the first step of an eviction process, which is a formal notice to them that they need to pay or we might evict them. 😖
Tanya: Why didn't they pay rent?
James: They say their relative is trying close a property sale, so they are waiting for a big sum of money before they can pay. I don't understand this. Are they buying a property or selling a property? Does it matter? It is not an emergency. They did it out of greed or convenience. They are taking advantage of other people. They have no excuse.
Fina: It is not charity if someone cheats out of greed and you just forgive them.
James: To answer Tanya's question: I think the context is that their relative is selling a property. They will get a large sum of money when the sale closes. In the meantime there may be legal fees and realtors they need to pay. I see.
Evelyn: I know it is late, but if they had asked would we have lent them money for closing the sale?
James: Probably not. We're not in a business of lending money.
Zoey: I agree with Fina that this is not okay. It is not honest if you help someone by cheating someone else.
Evelyn: If they pay after receiving the notice. Can they stay?
James: It might depend on how they pay.
Sasha: If they were willing to cheat, there should be better renters.
Evelyn: I feel that if you serve the notice, it would be a huge escalation.
Tanya: But the notice doesn't actually do anything.
Sasha: It is the opposite. They escalated. We are showing them how to de-escalate.
Evelyn: But if they are telling the truth, then they have no money to pay in the short term. This will create a lot of panic. Little Red Riding Hood has just served the notice. OMG! XD 😖 How did it go? They say they will shoot for paying within three days, but probably next week. I see. Emergency meeting is adjorned. Please resume your other quests. Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the discussion. Are we ignoring the "fact" that the notice should be served by an adult? Don't go there, Ledia! XD

202206220916|Housing
June 22, 2022 Wednesday 9:16 AM
Arena

How does your philosophy deal with housing shortage? Does it try to house everyone? How does it do so? These questions is for the challenge question at Arena. I hope that the format is correct. I am posing it for Arcacianism.

Evelyn: When someone needs housing, Arcacianism reimburses and rewards those who choose to help. The result is that the person in need gets housing without being in debt, and the helpers get rewarded with credits that they may or may not choose to exchange for other rewards at quest centers. What rank are you aiming for? Celebration. Arcacianism celebrates those who help others. If you help people by building houses for them, you get many Arcacian points. Your good deeds are on public record.
Fina: Stewardism simply keep access open so people who need housing may build by themselves. They could get help if they want, but there is no system to promote help. Stewardism does not keep record of people's good deeds, but it reacts against those laying waste and blocking fair access. I'd rank Stewardism at Coexistence for this question. I don't get it. Why didn't you just say Stewardism celebrates those who can build their own houses? Then you'll get 5 points. Stewardism by itself doesn't say that being self-sufficient is something to be celebrated. It is anti-villains but does not promote heroism. You're going really soft against Evelyn. Then come join the fight.
Vivi: I want to join as a contestant. What do I need to do?
Fina: What philosophy are you representing?
Vivi: Dictatorship, World Domination.
Fina: Any difference to imperialism?
Vivi: That's for you to decide. In Queen Vivism, the world belongs to Queen Vivi. Queen Vivi has the final authority to decide who deserves to have a house and resources allocated accordingly to her liking as the world celebrates her infinite wisdom.
Vivi: I propose this as a celebration rank solution. I dare anyone to disagree.
Zoey: I disagree. Isn't this the definition of Conquest rank solution? You just said you decide who deserves to have a house. So, what do you do when you decide that someone who has a house doesn't have one?
Vivi: Queen Vivi does not feel a need to reply to non-contestants.
Fina: Zoey come join Stewardism.
Zoey: I feel that I should be neutral for now.
Sasha: Why would anyone want to join Stewardism when your answer is only mid-ranked?
Fina: This is Stewardism to Vivism: Stewardism does not take away livelihood of neutral beings. That is the requirement for a philosophy to reach the rank of Coexistence. Vivism as described violates Coexistence. It is at most competition rank.
Vivi: Objection. I never said I would take away livelihood. I said I get to decide who deserves to live in a house.
Fina: You are not denying that you would not take away people livelihood as you see fit. Unless you declare that Queen Vivism does not give Queen Vivi the authority to make such decisions, your objection is meaningless. It is implied that you also have that authority even if you don't say it explicitely. Sasha? Sasha can't think of a comeback against Fina's argument. 🏳️
Vivi: This is Queen Vivism to Stewardism: Does Stewardism declare that they will never do anything that harms or ends the livelihood of another neutral organism for their own interest? Do you hunt indiscriminately all living things that hunt others? Or do you play favorism and let some of those hunters off the hook?
Fina: Stewardism doesn't force anyone to enforce Stewardism values. If you don't fight for the rights of other being, that just makes you less of a Stewardist.
Vivi: I claim that Stewardism also violates the requirement for Coexist unless it declares Stewardism bans pulling weeds from a garden and building roads over vegetations.
Fina: Stewardism follows sustainability, and that is better than Vivism which would not only pave roads over plants but dead human rebels.
Tanya: Vivi, you can't win arguments against Fina. I'm speaking as an oracle.
Vivi: Queen Vivi does not response to non-contestants.
Tanya: Hospitalianism promotes necessary housing by letting hospitable places get more resources based on net migration. When people with no housing migrate to a place they find more hospitable (such as a place the provides the kind of housing and community they want), their resources rights travel with them to the new place.
Tanya: Hospitalian solution to housing is cooperation ranked.
Vivi: Vivism to Hopistalianism: How is Hospitalianism not ranked at Competition? That housing solution does not promote different states to cooperate. It is promoting them to compete against each other.
Tanya: Hospitalianism promotes people in a country to cooperate with people trying to migrate to their country. People who share the same problem of needing housing
Vivi: That doesn't change the relationship among the countries. They are clearly in comeptition against each other.
Tanya: @Fina, how is competition rank defined?
Fina: Compeition rank is defined as solutions that allow losers to lose their livelihood. It is defined for individuals, not organizations. There is no problem "killing" an organization when it lacks members.
Tanya: Therefore, Hospitalianism is above competition rank. Unlike Stewardism, Hospitalianism has an incentive for people to be hospitable to others.
Vivi: I contest the conclusion that Hospitalianism promotes people helping each other because the added resource follows the migrant. The local helpers don't actually get anything.
Tanya: That is not how it normally works. The local helpers are not providing hospitality entirely free of charge. They could have a tax or duty schedule where a migrant is allowed to join only if they pay a due. But the migrant is free to choose any country to join or be independent. Most people would rather pay a fee for a comfortable and safe life than to invent and defend their life all by themselves.
Tanya: Hospitalianism is not much different from choosing which hotel you want to stay in, when you also have a choice to camp. You don't have to choose a hotel.
Fina: Without further arguments, the scores for this challenge question are: Arcacianism 5 points, Hospitalianism 4 points, Stewardism 3 pts, Queen Vivism 0 pt. With this scoring system, won't the score stay the same for every question?
Fina: That's for you to find out.

June 23, 2022 Thursday 10:35 AM
Magic Bakery

What changes would you like to see at Blogger or @Board? There are 57 items for @Board in the guild log but StarTree doesn't know which one to work on!

Ledia: I think this might be a bad practice if we log items at the guild log, but we actually ignore them when we have time to do something. StarTree is doing it wrong! 😭
Ledia: What is the oldest quest logged there?
StarTree: Red logged something about Big Bad Wolf on August 23, 2021!
Ledia: That has nothing to do with @Board. Red was asking the question what constitutes bullying and how should society react to it. I can't tell exactly where it should go. Maybe @Seed or @Arena or @Paladin? But it is definitely not an @Board quest.
Fina: @Arena can take that as a challenge question. Thank you!
LRRH: @Board has unrelated quests because at one point the quests did not have proper chapter assignment. So they were all set to @Board to be assigned. That explains it.
Ledia: We categorized the remaining quests at @Board. The categories are:
Ledia: Coding: Where someone needs to learn more about coding to upgrade the blog.
Ledia: Style: Where someone needs to figure out what changes can make the blog nicer.
Ledia: Archive: Importing content from old Google Slides.
Ledia: Celebrate: Celebrate most liked posts at Twitter.
Ledia: Guide: A guide for ourselves on how to write our own chapters.
Ledia: Scoring: Rules on scoring for the guild
Ledia: Milestone: A quest on publishing a newsletter.
LRRH: @Guild will take Scoring and Milestone quests.
Evelyn: I think @Freedom can take the Archival quest.
Ledia: That leaves tracking most liked posts at Twitter to be an odd quest for @Board.
Evelyn: I think @Happy can take that quest.
Ledia: Now the quest list of @Board has a clear focus on the blog. It collects ideas on good styles, it upgrades the code, and it shows the rest of us how to upgrade on own chapters.
Ledia: I think the Guide quest is the easiest to clear. We should clear that first, so everyone knows the known ways to make their chapters better, then do Style. Style Quests will tell us what code we need to upgrade.
LRRH: Sounds like a great plan. Ledia receives
Sasha: It think this turns out to be a great topic for @Detective. So I am tagging it. Ledia is recognized for the skill Battle Master.
StarTree: Thank you! Now StarTree knows what to do next! StarTree thanks the fellow guild members for guidance!

I want to nominate Zoey's CH 13 for the best About tab. She changed "About" to "Quest Center", which seems more relevant to me when I visit there.

Zoey: I did that because @Casey started describing quests at @Treasure XD 🤷‍♀️
Casey: It would make sense if each chapter post has its own greeting and introduction. In the game world each of them is a separate location. You teleport there, and you can see its local quests. Exactly.
Zoey: My only reserve is that "Quest Center" is long. That takes up space at the banner.
P4: P4 will use "Quests". 👍
StarTree: It is added! P4 thanks for the attention.
LRRH: The quest list style should worth one place level EXP. It is added!

202206260936|Treasure Hunt
June 26, 2022 Sunday 9:36 AM
Magic Bakery

I think I am aiming for something really awesome, but my vision is a little cloudy. Could someone help me figure out what to do with Chapter 21 more Questy?

Tanya: @StarTree, could you take a screenshot of Chapter 21? Done! Aren't we confident that after discussion it will be shockingly better? So we need a before and after comparison? XD It is also good for the context if we read this later.
Casey: My rough plan is to show Cardinal Quest content by the treasure related to them. So when you click on it, you should see what the treasure is, how it was obtained, and who has it. I see. What do you need help with? To make it more Questy and exciting...?
Ivy: You could present the treasure as it own game item card. You could see Chapter 20\Archetype\Herlad\Flare for example. Nice!
Casey: What should I really put for the rarity?
Tanya: Rarity has no meaning in Cardinal Quest. Instead we should know how much it costs to use it.
Ledia: Should this shield block magical or physical attack? If it blocks physical attacks, how is it different from an ordinary shield?
Tanya: It blocks physical attack, but it absorbs more impact the more it blocks the same attack.
Cardinal: Normally blocking takes 1 stamina. If the incoming attack is notably impactful, then it becomes a contest of strength between the attacker and the blocker, assuming the shield doesn't break.
Cardinal: For this shield, the property would be after the first block against an attack type, there is no strength check against that same attack type for subsequent blocks. Is it per fight or permanent?
Cardinal: It is permanent per user. So what happens if the user is KO'ed and someone else tries to use the shield? The new user cannot take advantage of the KO'ed user's experience.
Ledia: But does the shield now start leveling up with the new user and remembers the level with the old user?
Cardinal: It remembers. It works with summoner skills so that you could summon another hero's experience for the shield to block for you. I like that idea. Even though I have no summoner skill. You can learn it XD
Casey: Even if we don't try to add a rarity label, the way Cardinal described it would make the shield unique. Each shield has it own memory.
Tanya: But it is irrelevant whether "Sapphire Shields" are rare, but the one you used is unique. I don't have a better word for it.
Zoey: Could we call that type of items legendary? If what makes it special is the experience it has. I'd take that.
Tanya: I think you need a section to define what "legendary" and "gear" mean, as opposed to other keywords.
Casey: I think they can go to @Cardinal I think it is more relevant here. How about both? With JQuery? Alright. But not now. I have another question.
Casey: So we have a card for the treasure.I think something should be done about the quest to get that treasure. How do we get that treasure? We will know when we actually get it! XD
Tanya: @StarTree, could you list field log entries we did for Sapphire Shield?
StarTree: Done! There is a key material, the Sapphire, that had not been obtained because it is not clear if enchantment are compatible or need to be merged!
Evelyn: That reminds me that we need to ask the sages something about it. 😖 I already asked the crafters guild about it. They said they are looking into it. I think we should also ask the elves about it. It is the other side of the compatibility question. You were asking whether sapphire enchantment is the only thing we need. I am asking whether we could de-enchant an existing enchantment at the slot so we don't need to merge them. Ok. Ok, I asked the question.
Casey: Can we represent the requirement in simple Quest terms? Such as go to location X, defeat Y, obtain Z, then craft W ?
Zoey: Well, we know the location. That is Sapphire mine shaft 8 level 9 chamber 8.
Casey: And what is there?
Zoey: It is a whole dungeon there XD
Casey: What monster type is the boss?
Ledia: It gave us so much trouble it better be something big.
Evelyn: But we haven't seen it yet. It could be something innocent. 😅
Casey: Who has that skill that can identify what monsters are in a dungeon? Isn't that Ledia? I have monster recognition. It means if I see a monster during a fight I can tell what elemental affinity it has. I can't tell what monsters are in a dungeon. I think that would be an Orcale skill.
Sasha: I've got just the right thing! Oracle cards! And I see... A Blue Dragon that is immune to percing and lightning attacks!
Evelyn: I hope that we are not attacking creatures at their home for no reason. 😖 Then let's say it is evil. I hope that we are not making creatures evil just so that we can fight them. 😖 Evelyn, you're making this really difficult.
Tanya: It is a challenge. We have to show our worth then be rewarded with the required sapphire. I like that better. 😊
Ledia: But once you get the sapphire, you can pass it to anyone? That doesn't make sense.
Tanya: The creature can see how it is used and revoke its enchantment I'm okay with that.
Casey: It is much better than before. @StarTree, screenshot please. Done!
Zoey: This style setting is great, it looks good on both desktop and mobile.
Casey: I can't wait to for us to complete some treasure quests so we could do the story content.
Zoey: I nominate that to be best layout to show a card.
Zoey: Actually, maybe also for best About tab. Casey moved the charter down. That kep the Start tab more interesting.
Casey: I thnk Enemble has the best format right now. On desktop, my Start section would have a large blank space. Maybe I should move charter back. Oh wait. I can't. My avatar is transparent. It will look strange. Chapter 21 is now listed for Best Card Display!
Tanya: Do you plan to let a visitor play the challenge? Or is it for story only?
Casey: I only plan for showing the story so when we play the game we have a reference to look up what the treasure and dungeon was about. I see. For Arx Dungeon I want it to have a quiz feature. But I think that should be another thread. Casey thanks the team for the help.

202206261919|Arx Dungeon
June 26, 2022 Sunday 7:19 PM
Atx Dungeon

After some clean up at the command post, the Arx Dungeon is open again for training. The convention of using CHAT for RP and BUBBLE for Non-RP applies to this thread.

LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood opens a chamber and sees monsters, but can't identify what they are. I'm referring to this twitter post and its replies. "Shouting down a speaker at a designated event isn't exercising "free speech" in the same way that punching someone whose opinions you dislike isn't free speech. It is instead a coercive method to stifle discussion among people exercising their rights."
Ledia: Ledia arrives at the chamber. In the first post, comparing shouting down someone to punching someone was an exaggeration and probably not a helpful analogy. But is it at fault of any logical fallacy? Maybe Appeal to Emotion? The exaggeration was meant to connect something that is unknown (shouting down someone) to something that is clear (punching someone). Then somehow use that association for the argument. False Analogy is a type of fallacy. Anyone wants to define what monster it is? How about Twin Jesters? They look the same but they are actually different. If you can tell them apart then you can defeat them. How about an Evil Twin? You know one of them is correct, the question is whether the other is also correct. How about a Doppelganger? Who is impersonating one of us? I like that idea, but how exactly do we decide what we are seeing right now? I think it comes down to, do you want the situation to be us, the heroes seeing two things that just look similar, or seeing something that looks familiar but might be different? I think Ledia's idea is more interesting. What is the difference betwen "Evil Twin" and "Doppelganger"? Well an Evil Twin is evil. A doppelganger could just be mischevous. Sasha pleads to Tanya with a note written on a small piece of paper. Tanya reads the note and says, "I don't want to do that." Why not? It feels too intrusive. Doing so will make someone uncomfortable. She'll be fine. What is it? I guess I can't say it because the GM doesn't OK it. Question: is Tanya violating Sasha's freedom of speech? That's a good question. I would say no. Tanya didn't forbid Sasha from telling anyone. Tanya is just saying she won't adopt Sasha's idea. But Tanya's disapproval made Sasha unwilling to tell others. I'm just saving the idea for a plot twist if I get to GM about it. Do you mean that if Sasha were the GM right now, we will get to know what the idea is? That depends on whether Sasha decides to go ahead after knowing my opinion about it. I think... I would just ask the actual person about it. But you already know she won't say no if you ask her like that. She would comply even though that would make her uncomfortable. Umm... Is this about who I think we all know who it is about? If that's the case, I agree with Tanya. I'm not interested in Sasha's idea. I am guessing that Sasha will push too far. You are judging me by anecdote. That's a fallacy. That's not a fallacy when I am admitting that I don't know. But more importantly do you deny that you won't be pushing what is acceptable? ... Tanya, I think your convention is not working. If we keep going, the entire post will be in BUBBLEs. Okay. I'll move the plot along.
Tanya: Little Red Riding Hood, Ledia, and Zoey gather at the chamber and saw a strange sight. Down the hallway stood what they recognized to be Sasha. I knew it! Back at you! XD That wasn't the twist. My twist was kind of cute. GM, what is that Sasha doing? I'll let Sasha answer.
Sasha: That Sasha appears to be fighting monsters and getting EXP, doing the normal dungeon crawl.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood thought she was the first to unseal the chamber, but perhaps there was another entrance. Her suspicion has vanished. XD GM to players: suppose you see someone uses false analogy, how would you proceed? Referring to the post, it said that shouting down someone is a coercive method to stifle discussion. Whether it is "coercive" is debatable, but in that situation, it is undenably stifling discussion. So even if it used a false analogy, I wouldn't focus on it. Shouting down someone strifles discussion. That's a fact. Is strifling discussion the same as violating free speech?
Ledia: Ledia observes carefully to see if that Sasha is actually defeating monsters, and not an illusion that will lead the monsters to attack them from behind if they turn their backs.
Sasha: Sasha looks further down the hall and sees a pudding and nukes it. The post there says if freedom of speech is treated as a personal right, then whoever speaks first may speak indefinitely, and no one may interrupt. That is slippery slope argument. Something that is a personal right doesn't mean that they have a right to do so in ways that prevent others from also doing so. Sasha KOs the pudding and gains a sack of gold coins.
Ledia: Following Sasha's lead, Ledia caught up to her and attacked the next monster, a succubus. Here, ad hominem was used: "You sound like the kids who flunked out of my undergrad law classes." GM to Ledia: Suppose you see someone using ad hominem, what would you do? I think I would just ignore them because if they start doing that it is no longer a discussion. Then what did you mean when you said you would attack the succubus? Good question. Ledia swung at the succubus, but the succubus entangled her sword and drained Ledia of 1 hitpoint. Umm... aren't succubus supposed to target men only? Not in my dungeon. That answer... A succubus is just a demon type humanoid monster that has a charm skill. To be honest I'm glad Evelyn isn't here for the awkward moment. XD So is Ledia charmed? We'll see.
Zoey: Zoey sees the situation and wants to break the succubus's hold on Ledia, by drawing Ledia's attention away. I hunter mark the Ghost at the adjacent hallway for the group. Here the OP tried defending her original post by saying that shouting down someone and punching them are really the "same way" if you only consider its effect on suppressing speech. That is special pleading for the readers to ignore the obvious difference and error in the original analogy. The OP was moving the goal post instead of admiting that it was a bad analogy. The Ghost is Hunter Marked. The succubus's hold on Ledia has weakened.
Evelyn: Evelyn arrives at the dungeon after getting an alert that a party member has been attacked. If I see someone moving the goal post, I would probably allow them to make the amendment and continue the discussion if it still has merit. Misunderstanding is forgivable.
Evelyn: I cast Ascension. I tap in to understand the ghost's circumstance and let it pass on. Evelyn, roll with advantage for skill ranking placement please. I'll use the happy dice 😊 Evelyn: ➖➕ Evelyn, your ascension skill is rank B and you succeeded. How do you want to do this?
Evelyn: A warm light surrounds the ghost, releasing it from its chains of negative feelings. The ghost ascends to a happy place. Evelyn, you may draw a loot card. What is this? 😳 This is from Dungeon!, courtesy of Sasha! Thank you. 😊 The ghost leaves behind a silver cup. Evelyn is recognized to have cleric skill Ascension Rank B. What am I supposed to do with it? 😅 You are a cleric, so when you get 10K gold you win. The silver cup is worth 1K, so you just need 9K more. Ok 😅 Is that official? What happens if we win? We'll see. But that game mechanism isn't really cooperative. Should I have tried helping Ledia? XD I think we can just collect loots and win together when we have enough as a team 😊 I'm fine with that XD What class am I? You are considered a cleric also. Okay. When Sasha KO'ed the pudding, why didn't you ask what she would do against slippery slope arguments in real life? That was a Level 1 monster. Spotting it is enough. Then can I collect loot also? Now that we have evidently and completely ignored the succubus?
Tanya: As the heroes regrouped, Ledia discovers a treasure chest near where the succubus was. Ledia, you may draw a Level 3 loot card. I draw. Ledia obtains a Gold Cup. At this rate it will take us a long time to get enough gold. The dungeon is on-going.
Zoey: I want to get some treasure also XD
LRRH: Let's look for one more before going back. What about the Doppelganger at the beginning? We ignored it but didn't get any loot. Your character didn't identify any doppelganger.
Zoey: Zoey asks Sasha if she would join their party.
Sasha: Sasha declines, "It is probably faster if I solo and keep my loot for myself."
LRRH: Sasha, how much gold point do you need from the dungeon?
Sasha: I am wizard, so 30K.
Zoey: Sasha is never leaving the dungeon! XD
Sasha: I nuke Zoey. Because she was using slippery slope argument. That was a joke! XD I would allow it for training purpose. XD
Tanya: Sasha nuked a group of puddings that were spawning near Zoey. Zoey was caught in the AE attack. Zoey takes 1 damage. Sasha gains another sack of gold.
Ledia: Sasha, I'm just curious. How did you get in before Red unsealed the chamber?
Sasha: I didn't. The chamber was unsealed when I entered.
Zoey: What time did you check in, Sasha?
Zoey: Zoey asked this question because she knew that there is a check-in process for the dungeon, everyone can see who checked in before them. And from the record, the check-in order for today was Tanya, Red, Ledia, then Zoey.
Evelyn: Evelyn felt that the atmosphere was a little strange and started healing Zoey and Ledia back to full health. 😖
Sasha: I was here since yesterday.
Zoey: But you said you entered after Red unlocked the chamber.
Sasha: She already unlocked it in March. Three months ago. Sasha said and showed them the date.
Zoey: 🤔 Zoey knows that this Sasha must be lying somehow. Why would the dungeon leave the chamber unsealed for 3 months?
Sasha: I nuke Zoey. I nuke her for using Personal Incredulity. Even if that is abnormal, that doesn't point to my lying. It just means that the dungeon was mismanaged. Sasha, what monster do you choose for Personal Incredulity? Devil on the shoulder. It promotes a person's unjust thoughts. Sasha KO's a demon spider that had found its way to ensare Zoey. Zoey takes 1 damage. Sasha gains a third sack of gold. I am a monster magnet... XD
Evelyn: I heal Zoey. 😅
Ledia: Ledia knows that that's not what the date means. The date Sasha showed was the date the monsters were sighted before they were sealed. But even if Sasha misunderstood about that date, there was no contradiction yet.
Ledia: Sasha, did you check-in yesterday?
Ledia: Ledia asked that because if she did there would be a record.
Sasha: Why are you asking me all these questions? Are you suspecting me of something? Why didn't you suspect Evelyn? She is not casting Protect like her usual self, and she got a new skill out of nowhere.
Evelyn: 😖
Zoey: OMG No way! XD
Ledia: Ledia spots a Stone Gargoyle coming to life and pulverizes it. Sasha is avoiding the question by asking questions. Ledia destroys the Stone Gargoyle, which drops a Magic Sword.
Ledia: Zoey, could you check the check-in record from yesterday?
Sasha: So what if I didn't check-in? I don't have to tell everyone everything I do.
Zoey: I think I spot Scarecrow near Sasha. I release barrage in Sasha's direction. Do you mean to hit Sasha in the AE attack? No, I'll be nice. For now. You may draw a Level 1 loot card. Zoey KO's the Scarecrow, which drops a badge for moving through all secret doors. Finally! XD
Ledia: Two things. 1) If you didn't check-in, it is within protocol to detain you for further questioning before you can exit the dungeon. 2) It should be virtually impossible to sneak in without checking in. This is not the Arx Vault, but security is still very high. You are unlikely to have the skill necessary to sneak in. There is reasonable susipcion that you are from the dungeon.
Sasha: That makes no sense. If I were a doppelganger and wants to get out, why won't I copy one of you who checked in?
Ledia: Maybe you didn't know about the barriers. It is getting late. Can this game continue later? Then are we all locked inside the dungeon? I'll think about what happened until the next time. Or I can...
Sasha: Cardinal. Pixie.
Cardinal: All players are exhausted. All players are KO'ed to be respawn at their home point. Arx Dungeon is now closed for the day.
Zoey: That is so Sasha. Can a Doppelganger mimic so much? XD If they did that would be a correct analogy, not a false one... Good night everyone. 😊 Tanya thanks the players.

202206291005|Best Layout
June 29, 2022 Wednesday 10:05 AM
Magic Bakery

I nominate Chapter 27 for best about tab layout. This is in the same category as P4's nomination for Chapter 13.

{"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220629%20-%20Magic%20Bakery%20HQ.png?raw=true"}
Fina: This format makes the content more compact when viewed on desktop, and the overall presentation is pleasant. The banner uses a picture of the location instead of a person. I see this layout is applicable to many other chapters.
LRRH: Under the hood we are carrying the changes that Black made for a new Harbor master notes, and changes Cardinal started making. Harbor master doesn't use flex yet. I think this is our first use to great effect. I think it works better if the information inside is short. Otherwise it leaves a lot of empty space. Such as when you click on the charter. Maybe the charter should be its own full width object. Or you could break the charter into smaller chunks with their own tiles. I see.
Ivy: It is also possible to make it expand to full width once you click on it.
Tanya: That would be perfect in my case.
StarTree: The nomination is now added! Little Red Riding Hood loves you.

Currency Exchange and Shaft Elevator have the same underlying issue. We have tried questing at it for a long time but have not been making any progress. What is the problem? What are we fighting? Tanya receives

Ledia: Aren't you almost there? I'm trying to zero in on the monster, but haven't succeeded yet.
StarTree: It's a hit! Tanya, you finally got a hit!
Tanya: This is some progress, but still a long way from what we need.
Ledia: I thought you only need one thing and the quest is complete if you want to stop there. Anything else is really not necessary.
Tanya: In that case, what monster or what issue are we dealing with?
Ledia: The issue is, for some reason someone who should know something is not telling us. So we are left having to figure it out by ourselves.
Evelyn: I hope that we are not asking for something too simple. I hope people are not mad at us for asking. 😖
Ledia: That was what Vivi was saying...
Sasha: Queen Vivi was right. All hail to Queen Vivi! Are we RP-ing or not in this thread? I made it as a non-RP thread to discuss what we should do in the RP.
Tanya: Based on the result of Arx Dungeon, I want to extend the effort of personalifying issues as monsters to help us deal with them better.
Ledia: This is much easier with the logical fallacies. Here we don't even have a word for the situation we are in.
Evelyn: I think this is a quest where something is hidden and we are trying to look for it. Once we find it, we can share with others.
Ledia: Buy in reality we can't just share it with anyone. Or can we?
Tanya: We'll respect the regional request.
Ledia: Just to be clear, we could have just said Currency Exchange and Shaft Elevator are both spawn points. They spawn possibly different monsters, but the key to address both is the same. And the key item we need is lost and we need to find it by doing a lot of investigations.
Tanya: Yes.
Ledia: Then in FATE terminology, what we need to overcome are challenges relevant to Lore, Investigation, and Rapport skills. In Cardinal terminology, if we are struggling, then our skill ranks are about C. Or maybe even lower. That's solid! Nice job promoting FATE concepts! I also think that is a good representation of the situation.
Tanya: I see. How many skills are there in FATE?
Ledia: I think 18? Athetics, Burglary, Contacts, Crafts, Deceive, Drive, Empathy, Fight, Investigate, Lore, Notice, Physique, Provoke, Rapport, Resources, Shoot, Stealth, Will.
Tanya: I see. Any suggestion on what the key item we are looking for?
Zoey: It is ancient dwarven runes translator. There were runes along the elevator shaft, and Currency Exchange square has the same style of runes. It gives us unexpected results when we tested our spells. I find that to be very accurate, and I like the theme. 😅 Yes this is it.
Ledia: So we need Investigation skill to track down its meaning, Lore skills to digest the text we do find, and Rapport skills to try picking the brains of those people who should know what they mean, if they weren't occupied or had forgotten them.
Evelyn: Someone must know something, but they aren't telling us. We should study the text. I think we are bothering them. 😖
Tanya: Then this is what I see as the quest:
QUEST: Dwarven Runes Quest
Location: Currency Exchange Square and Elevator Shaft
Brief: Spawn points at those locations are spawning monsters with Accel from the ancient dwarven runes, making them very difficult to defeat. The plan is to patch the runes so that their powers are not used by monsters.
Skills: Investigation, Lore, Rapport
Boss: Pick pocket, something that levitates.
Zoey: Maybe the dwarven runes aren't just ancient, they are a type of thieves' cant or are being used as thieves cant. We aren't going against a single boss monster, but two thieves guilds. That's why no body is talking. Zoey receives
Ledia: Then, what we see as monster spawn points are really distractions for the thief guilds to operate?
Sasha: Great Aspects about the quest. 👍 Aspect is a FATE term.
Evelyn: I hope that it doesn't get too complicated. 😖
Ledia: But we know that their network runs deep. Those runes have ties to many store fronts.
Evelyn: I don't think they are all Thieves Cant. It could just be a common motif for decoration. 😅
Ledia: But it could be.
Sasha: Should Sylvia take this quest?
Zoey: Phantom Thief vs Thief Guilds XD
Ledia: What if she goes back...?
Evelyn: 😖
Tanya: Let's consider those ideas. Cardinal needs an upgrade to show stories per quest. This post will go toward that. Tanya thanks all for the discussion.

202206301013|Daily Quests
June 30, 2022 Thursday 10:13 AM
Magic Bakery

June is almost over, would it be have a small summary for each daily routine quest?

Ledia: Positivity time and Paladin Training are really the same thing. We are using the chant, "Everyday in every way I'm getting better and better." We use that for counting sets. It works much better than using numbers.
Zoey: Won't miscount XD.
StarTree: StarTree will turn each item into a clickable thing to show details!
Sasha: I think quest open and close aren't really a thing. They should be part of Cardinal Quest.
Zoey: Why are we combining all of them all of a sudden?
Sasha: Doesn't that list look too long to you?
Zoey: Not really, although a litte disorienting after seeing the new layout at Chapter 27.
Zoey: Actually, what is the difference between the list of Daily Quests at HQ and at the calendar?
Evelyn: I like the one at the Calendar/sidebar because it shows what we are doing in the month.
LRRH: I think we want to keep the one per calendar so we can see changes over time. The one at HQ might be more general and overall, and may have an overall leaderboard. The one at calendar will reflect actual participants in that month.
Zoey: For the record, the study group finished reading about Silva at the beginning of the month, then had been readint FATE since. We finished reading FATE accelerated quite quickly, then moved to FATE core. We are about halfway in FATE core. So that will probably continue for half of July. And we are looking for something else to read. Thank you for the summary!
Sasha: Reading and lunch hour are basically the same activity.
Ivy: I think at Calendar we can combine them to reflect when we do it. At HQ they can be more distinct so that it is easier to see what the quest is by itself regardless how we combine them when we do it. 👍
Ledia: If we combine them, then we have morning, lunch, and the rest of the day: three sections?
Evelyn: I want to add a daily quest for tidying and important old content to the blog.
Ledia: About when would those activities be?
Evelyn: Maybe night? They don't take a lot of thoughts, I think. But we should do some everyday.
Ledia: We should have some good trigger for the habit to stick.
Evelyn: For tidying, how about when we leave or return to the guild house? And archiving will be triggered with importing field scores.
Tanya: For archiving, how about every time someone makes a post, they must archive something?
Ledia: That's a rather interesting idea.
Evelyn: What about days when we don't post anything?
Tanya: If you would still archive something on those day, maybe you would end up posting something.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood is slightly against Tanya's idea. If someone wants to discuss something, they should be able to just start a thread. You need to know a lot more on what's happening in the archive to be able to archive something.
Evelyn: Maybe for those who do know how to archive can archive before posting?
StarTree: Should StarTree do that? StarTree already makes the Status post everyday!
Tanya: I think that should be exempted. On the daily log, StarTree would get 1 point for making the status post. Anyone else who wants a point can also get one by importing a post. We don't need two status posts, so that column only has StarTree right now.
Evelyn: By if StarTree wants to import another post, she is not getting credits if it is just the same column.
LRRH: StarTree please add a column for Import. This will replace logging import activities in Guild Log.
Ivy: What if someone imports many posts in one sitting?
LRRH: How about if you import more than one thing in the same day, then use guild log for the extra? That shouldn't be very normal. Just trying to maintain that the task is not tied to anyone and it is optional. If you want to do it, there is a convenient way to log credits. But you don't need to do that to make a new post.
Ledia: That scoring doesn't take advantage of how "if you don't do it today, you miss the opportinity". For PT, if you don't go, you can't do more just to make it up.
LRRH: I think importing is different, the thing isn't going anywhere. I don't worry anyone trying to "procrastinate" and import a lot at once. That's okay if that is more efficient. If someone wants to do that every day, the scoring should be easy. So it is a choice. If you want to do it, you may do it the way you want. The scoring at the end is the same. The scoring is not nudging you to favor either style.
Ledia: Very compelling explanation.
Tanya: Agreed.
Vivi: StarTree, can you automatically tally the number of credits a person gets for that particular daily quest? If they do it once a day, it should be 30 for June. Roger! LRRH receives StarTree thanks everyone!

Congratulations! June results are up! There was an error in the Daily Quest Log where Fina's points were not counted correctly. It is fixed now!

Evelyn: The daily quests section looks really nice! 😍
Zoey: Ledia's six star PT score XD
Evelyn: For July, could we have a clerical daily quest group? Maybe it could combine with News Watch session?
StarTree: The group will include News Watch, Importing, Tally, and Tidying? They are approximately in the same time slot!
Evelyn: Yes please.
StarTree: Does it include all chores except cooking? Because cooking and lunch reading are a different group!
Evelyn: Yes. ?
StarTree: That group will have 20 columns, should some columns be combined?
Vivi: What was the highest score in that combined group last month?
StarTree: It is 42 points!
Vivi: I would say group that with Reading & Lunch also.
Zoey: Umm... What is the point if you group all of them together? We can't tell what the routine is XD
Vivi: If you want to highlight a group, you could use the space on the side.
Zoey: True, but that doesn't answer my question. Why do you want to group them all together?
Vivi: The PT and Cardinal groups are dominant groups, the rest is miscelleneous. I want to see a few big groups instead of many small groups.
Zoey: Hmm... I'll wait to see the result.
StarTree: With that group of 26 columns, the highest score is 70!
Vivi: Are all columns accounted in Daily Log?
StarTree: The five columns we report daily are not accounted: Participation, Merit, Recognition, Kudos, Arcacia Award!
Vivi: How much is that worth combined?
StarTree: The highest score is 127, of which 84 came from Arcacia Award!
Vivi: Could you set those four groups with June data in the July Calendar so we can compare?
StarTree: Roger!
🕰️ [10:16 AM] 🕰️
StarTree: It is done!
Vivi: What do others think? I think this is more meaningful and should apply to June.
Vivi: The most important thing for me is that those stars should add up to the per day average for each member.
StarTree: It would not do that yet because it doesn't count the points logged at Guild Log!
Vivi: And how much would that worth? Try adding that to Baker's Dozen group. StarTree thanks Vivi for making life really interesting!
Zoey: StarTree is the most cheerful because StarTree is the most Tree~ful! XD Wee~~!
StarTree: In that category, the highest score is 110. Combining that with Baker's Dozen gives a highest score of: 140.
Vivi: Perfect. Please update the list.
StarTree: And it is done! Now the stars should add up to the one shown in Leaderboard!
Evelyn: Does anyone want to say something for Cardinal Quest and Discussion? They look a little blank 😅
Tanya: For Arsenal, we are losing control if we don't catch up.
Evelyn: Tanya please put something to carry us forward. 🙏
Tanya: Then I'll put "Peace is within our grasp." Tanya receives
Tanya: Let's start July strong and finish strong. Done!
Evelyn: For the Awards section I want to put: "Thank you StarTree and Vivi for this new recognition! And all for the wonderful moments! 😊"
Zoey: This is starting to feel like a yearbook or something XD
StarTree: It is now applied to June! Evelyn thanks everyone.

202207011914|FlexShow
July 1, 2022 Friday 7:14 PM
Whale Nursery

Based on comments yesterday, I added a function FlexShow in the javascript. There are some added effects that I want people to try. I think it is better if the behavior is consistent across the blog.

Black: Effect 1: Objects in a flex container are normally split into three columns as shown on desktop. The width is enough to show a card. On mobile, those objects will show in one column.
Effect 2: When it is clicked, on desktop it will move up above the separate columns and expand to full width. This is the main feature that makes it functional on desktop. On mobile, the content will just show in-place.
Effect 3: By our convention, if a 100 pixel square thumbnail exists, it will shrink to 50 pixel square when the content is expanded. When the content is collapsed again, the thumbnail will not restore to 100 pixel. This is intentional to show that the content has been visited.
Black: You may try it at .
Tanya: This is very nice, thank you.
Vivi: For the Guide section, could you add an avatar to the content once expanded? I want to know who is speaking.
Black: I added 100px for step 1, 50px for step 2, and kept step 3 to have none for comparison.
Vivi: 100px.
Tanya: Black, are you going to import the story?
Black: When I get around to it next time.
Tanya: I want to see how you would format it.
Vivi: Your guide section is too nested. The steps shouldn't be in another cheesboard.
Black: I am planning to merge Problems and Failures to the same tab and see how that goes.
Vivi: I'll wait.
LRRH: Can Chapter 22 get some love and get this formatting for story posts?
Black: I don't imagine it to be any different.
LRRH: But for stories, the actual content is in the Archive. Then the user needs to click it twice?
Black: I think in that case you would want to write a synopsis. So at the uppermost level, that would be the Quest. The reader clicks on that and it expands and shows the Quest synopsis. If they want to read the story, then then click on the Query link to load the links.
LRRH: Right now at , the synopsis is already part of the upper button. The viewer clicks once to load the query list, then click again to view the post.
Ivy: Black, I think they are asking for a function that does what your function did, but also queries a list and list them inside while expanding at the same time.
Black: I can kind of see that, but I feel I am OOM.
Ivy: Then I'll do it. If you don't mind, I might just modify your FlexShow function so that it will also run a query if it exists in the structure. Then we don't have to remember what function is for what. They are all the same one function, it does everything depending what is around it. Ivy receives
Black: It's all yours. 👍
Ivy: My plan is to store a query string in the same button that the viewer clicks. Then the function will load the content to the last div inside the sibling. If someone who has stories to post wants to vet it first.
Tanya: So you are asking whether Querying is the last thing of the expanded content.
Ivy: Essentially yes.
Tanya: That seems to be the convention so far. But I think we are missing the previous and next buttons. After reading a section of the story, the viewer can't continue to the next segment.
Ivy: How about I try to make it so that the function scans the content of the sibling and looks for a tag with a command to query. For each one it sees, it does the query and replace the tag with the queried content?
Tanya: I think that is what we need.
LRRH: Is this difficult?
Ivy: It shouldn't be too difficult. I'll start now.
🕰️ [10:07 PM] 🕰️
Ivy: @LRRH, @Tanya, it's done. Have fun! Little Red Riding Hood loves you.

Philosophy Arena

In Stewardism, there is a concept of open access to basic needs. This means that people have a right to reasonable share of natural resources, and do not have a right to destroy resources that are needed by others.
Arena: On the other hand democratic socialism has the concept of Universal basic Income. Open Access and UBI are not the same. Or are they? Who wants to come duke it out? Fina's got to fight XD

Evelyn: I'm interested in this discussion but I am speaking from some one exploring Arcacianism, not socialism.
Tanya: Fina, what is your challenge question?
Fina: Universal Access: Yes or no? What does your philosophy have about people trying to make their own living?
Evelyn: The word "Universal" is ambiguous. It can mean too many things for people to attack by misinterpretation.
Fina: In Stewardism, there are private properties and public properties. Public properties are numerous and watched over under stewardship principles. Whether something can be a piece of personal property is a matter of abundance and necessity. Things that are necessary fall under open access stewardship. It means that you may use what you need. You may not harm the sustainability. If you keep others away from fair sharing, you lose your right to access that resource.
LRRH: This might not be entirely related to what Fina wants to discuss here, but I want to reply to someone taking about UBI here.. Summary of that thread. The OP said UBI and automationa are not compatible because the more high-tech jobs become, the more complicated new jobs there will be for people to work on. Then I replied that UBI and automation are compatible within the context of distributing basic things the automation can afford. Then a third person says nothing is automatic and that is utopia. They are using some kind of logical fallacies... Although that is off topic. Fina, what do you want to discuss?
Fina: Let's reply first. This has nothing to do with Arena, but let's see how has the best reply.
Evelyn: I think the third tweeter is worried about inflation. If basic necessities are sufficiently and affordably produced by automation, then they would be free. You wouldn't need to pay people UBI for them to extra for what they need and is automated and affordable, but also things that are not automated and in scarcity. That reply would be too long for Twitter. Sorry. 😖
Ledia: Is length all the matters? How do we want to judge what reply is the best? What effect should it have?
Fina: We can use the same scale where Celebrative reply has 5 points. It is pretty hard to be celebrative without sounding sarcastic 😅
Sasha: How does UBI prevent people from not doing their own fair share?
LRRH: It does not. You are allowed to slack off. You don't need to do anything for things that are free.
LRRH: For example, sunlight is free. You may get as much sun tan or sunburn as you want.
🕰️ [7:44 AM] 🕰️
LRRH has replied to twitter.
LRRH: "UBI is compatible with automation means that if you want to take over the world using automation, having a government that implements UBI is the next best thing to permanent government subsidies. 👑" Sorry for going off-topic. LRRH thanks for the discussion.

QUEST ID: 202207041052

202207041108|Book of Life
July 4, 2022 Monday 11:08 AM
World Tree

World Tree is formally commissioning heroes assistance in crafting the magical directory, dubbed the Book of Life to assist the World Tree Root Quest to survey the realm. This thread adopts Tanya's convention to use Chat for RP and Bubble for non-RP.

Zoey: This is Zoey the Ranger from World Tree Quest Center. For the quest charter, please go to World Tree Quest Center and look for Quest Charter ID 202207041052 in the Root Quests section. I like where this is going, Chapter 13 is looking really nice! 😊
Evelyn: Evelyn checks in to World Tree Quest Center and read the Quest Charter: "World Tree Book of Life. Objective: Create a magical directory so that quest doers of the Root Quest can report the findings." What about the Albatross? I feel like building a directory here because everyone is here and I want to be useful and part of the story.
Tanya: Tanya asks Zoey, "We created the Albatross to shield us from direct attacks. Do you intend to drop that project?"
Zoey: The Albatross is still being built and maintained as a Leaf Quest. It is concurrent to all other quests. By the way, I already added a JQuery tag at the "Quest Card" to link to any thread tagged with [data-quest-202207041052], and tagged this thread with it. I see.
Sasha: Sasha stealthily watches the quest center. Arx Dungeon is dungeon crawl, Arena is PvP, what kind of quests are those here? It can be a mix of any kind. The Book of Life quest would appear to be a crafting quest, but if you say you need a key ingredient from a dungeon then it becomes a dungeon quest. I think it is better if it sticks to a theme so we know what to expect. How about a familiar raising theme? No where else can have that theme to the fullness. Pokemon XD I don't understand 😅 I hope it is not too complicated.
Zoey: Zoey the Ranger greets Evelyn. "The roots of the World Tree reaches many realms through portals where you could reach many powerful things. But the quest itself is only asking for anything that would work until it is upgraded further. Zoey receives What is the real life thing that we are collecting in the directory? It is concepts. @Seed is taking over @Concept to list all the concepts. Arcacianism already has a mascot. So if you want to define Arcacianism, in RP you could be describing the Arcacian Princess Squirrel. That doesn't sound too bad 😃 Not everything has to be a creature. It can be a plant, a material, a location, etc. Just a comment on how to translate real life situation into roleplay: After identifying the challenge in real life, you could define a challenge in the game with analogus aspects.
Evelyn: Evelyn cleared an area at the quest board so people may pin their findings similar to how the quest board currently works. She knows this is probably not what people ultimately want, but she believes that more ideas will come when people start using it. Evelyn has started making Book of Life. Evelyn earns the recognition "The first step is the hardest." Evelyn receives For the ID, does it really matter what it is? The quest object has an ID "data-quest-yyyy-mmdd-hhmm". Do the other objects also need to be categorized? Would they need an ID like "data-xxxx-yyyy-mmdd-hhmm"? I think having no category is better. That can be an additional tag. Okay. I am convinced that we don't need "quest" in the ID. If we do that, it would only make sense if we put Quests and all other things in the same directory. and data-quest is a tag for querying. Will the content be RP or non-RP? I think RP. But you could use bubbles for non-RP information.
Ivy: Ivy passes by the quest center and shows Zoey and Evelyn a tome. "This is an example of what a directory might look like if you want some ideas." I am referring to the layout of Modzilla Developer Network, just as an example. I see many good features, like the scrollable sidebar on the left with expanable categories, the fixed section header on the right, and a search box on top. On the upper left there is a breadcrumb path that show how you could browse to the article from the root. Oh wow. I feel that we need this, for magic bakery.
Sasha: Sasha shows up and brings another tome for inspiration. What about the Pokemon index as reference? I hope we have enough pictures. 😄 The non-RP content is the most important for me. It should have concise definition if we will show it to someone.
Zoey: Let's start adding some entries to the directory so we have something to see while discussing. Zoey thanks all for answering the call.

It's time to celebrate Zoey's contribution in the guild by updating her profile. What would you like to see? I am going down the ranking. Zoey is currently ranked #6 in the guild at Level 37 with 1382 points. Congratulations!

LRRH: Congratulations! 🍰
Zoey: Thank you!
StarTree: Zoey got 12 points per day in June and ranked 3rd in powa!
Zoey: May I get recognized to be Athletic?
Ledia: I thought you already are as a ranger.
Zoey: @Cardinal?
Cardinal: There is no definition on what being Athletic means in the game.
Zoey: Maybe we should? Zoey is now recognized as a Budding Athlete.
Ledia: I'll add that as an Aspect in your profile.
Evelyn: It looks really nice. 😊
Zoey: I want the profile to show how may hit points I have. Now we're talking! XD Zoey thanks Ledia for upgrading the profiles.

Arx Dungeon

This is Tanya calling for heroes to return to the Arx Dungeon for training. RP in CHAT and non-RP in BUBBLE, please.

Sasha: Sasha has arrived at the Training Dungeon. This time with proper sign in to avoid the drama. Sasha to Tanya: The page is seriously lacking pictures and colors. I propose that instead of doing the dungeon, we upgrade it first.
Zoey: Zoey arrives at the dungeon and sees Sasha at the check-in, there went the theory that they saw a doppelganger. Why didn't you keep the mystery going? XD I didn't feel like playing a fake Sasha, A fake Sasha would be nice, so that is kind of pointless. XD 🤣
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood wonders whether she should open a chamber.
Evelyn: Evelyn arrives and hope that they could continue the training together. What do we want to do? Go for another story session or just update the page?
Sasha: Sasha complains about the bland interior and reception area of the Dungeon. "If you want to call this The Arcade, it has got to be more colorful and exciting." It has been 10 days since the last time we had a dungeon session. I'll leave it to the group to decide.
Evelyn: I heard that for us to complete the training, we need to gather enough points from the dungeon. There is no sign anywhere about this. Is it official? Should we keep track of how many points we have and how many points we need?
Sasha: Yes, we should have a sign about that.
Sasha: I am playing solo as a mage. I need 30,000 points total. I have 2,250 points so far. So I'm going to put myself on a scoreboard.
Evelyn: It looks really nice! 😍
Zoey: The bar is so long for Sasha XD
Ledia: "Amazing how a little bit of color makes so much difference." Ledia arrives at the dungeon.
Evelyn: Should we all put our scores on it, too?
Tanya: The heroes put their scores on a chart at the reception area. The bland entrance now has some color and was filled with happiness. Tanya awards merits to Evelyn and Sasha.
Evelyn: Maybe we should make it a habit that every time we come we make something a little better?
Ledia: Yes I agree. maybe that should be like the "entrance fee".
Evelyn: I think if it is not mandatory, people tend to do something better because when they do, they do it out of the joy of doing it. Evelyn receives
LRRH: Should we start or should we call it a day? I heard that if you get KO'ed in the dungeon, you could lose ALL of your points.
Evelyn: Is that official? 😅
Tanya: I am letting Sasha adjust the rules for training purposes.
Sasha: For training purposes, let's keep the rule where if you are KO'ed, including getting warped back from exhaustion, then you lose one item of your choice.
LRRH: Then I am opening a chamber since I don't have an item to lose yet.
Ledia: Um... but then what is the point of entering...?
LRRH: Right. 🐣
Zoey: Can we start in the morning or in the weekend then? I don't want to get KO'ed. It's already 11 PM. XD
Ledia: I second that.
Tanya: @StarTree, could you schedule an event for this weekend?
StarTree: Roger!
Sasha: As the heroes discuss the plan to regroup in the weekend, Sasha nukes a pudding near Ledia that had leaked through the door that LRRH was half opening. Even if you can lose an item by getting KO'ed, there is still a point in entering because you could get more than one item before you are KO'ed, or you could get an item of more points before you get KO'ed. Ledia and Red were both guilty of Slippery Slope. Sasha vaporizes the small group of puddings. Ledia and LRRH lose 1 hit point each. LRRH is KO'ed. 😅 I'll draw a Level 2 card because the pudding was from both Ledia and Red. Sasha gets a sack of gold for 750 points. Sasha's secret quest to nuke someone everyday is complete. Sasha signs out. XD
Evelyn: Evelyn signs out before it is too late. 😅 Tanya thanks the heroes for coming and looks forward to them returning this weekend.

Take good notes to save your future self.
At the Whale Nursery, we have been maintaining alchemist notes as MSW scrolls. Is there a better way? This quest is about finding better ways to maintain the alchemist notes.
🎪 Quest Objectives

⭐ Share and evaluate ideas to improve alchemist notes
⭐ Credit Category: EPIC I Innovation.
202303290023|🔮 Reference Writing
🍀 General Tricks

⭐ MS Project 20220624: Sasha: This is just a link on how to use MS Project. It seems like something that might help but we aren't doing.
⭐ HTML: Space for Text Search 202220629: Black: To help text search on HTML text file (as you are editting the HTML file directly as opposed to viewer the result on a browser), add spaces before and after a keyword within formatting tags to reduce the number of matches. For example, do <b> keyword </b> instead of <b>keyword</b>.
👑 Ranking Zoey's Quiver (HTML TSN) is an HTML document with a filter box and a cache area.
⭐ Advantages
⭐ Works well with other applications open
⭐ Quick Information
⭐ Cache Area This is our most efficient way. Put notes in cache area as they are used, then archive them to the proper TSN.
⭐ Search highlight 20220627 HTML TSN can use the built-in search word highlight function of the browser.
⭐ Allow Images 20220624 Although we are not using that feature, HTML TSN can easily include images without making the file big.
🐣 Disadvantages
🐣 Can't directly edit what you see
🐣 Can't open links to folder or file directly 20220630 There is a trick of using HTML to open a file dialog. There you could then paste the path and open files. But you need to store the path somewhere. We haven't found a way to set the path for the file dialog. 20221002 This isn't really a big problem since we still have Field Log.
💡 Ideas
💡 Remember collapsed sections 20220718 It would be better if HTML TSN can remember which sections are collapsed.
💡 Interface Upgrade 20220622 How about using the same search menu interface as w3schools
🏳️ Include 20220628 Tried using include but it did not work. w3schools
🍡 Evelyn's Staff

Evelyn's Staff is a spreadsheet where the columns are quest areas and rows are common subquests roughly ordered by when they should be completed. The HTML TSN is an HTML document with a filter box and a cache area.
⭐ Advantages
⭐ Easy to follow Evelyn's Staff captures the experience on what subtasks were done at other quest areas. This reduce the time on thinking about what to do.
⭐ More thorough checks Things worth checking get their own row on the spreadsheet. This prompts the quest doer to check

OLD TSN (Word)

TSN OneNote

2023-06: The TSN is implemented in OneNote, but so far it seems harder to use than the Word version. OneNote allows searching separated words, but the way it displays search result seems worse than Word. It is difficult to cycle through each match, perhaps the searcher needs to rethink how to use OneNote search to take advantage of the fact that it can match separated words.

Tanya's Field Map

Tanya's Field Log

⭐ Viewed on Spreadsheet.
⭐ Logs field activities An activity entry has a timestamp, quest, subquest, doer, and other info. It can be sort by time in either way, but it seems the most convenient when it is sorted in ascending order because when used with freeze plane, it is easy to show three regions all at once: Header, the log, and the footer.
⭐ Tallies field credits

Ideas

💡 Spreadsheet for storing information Use a spreadsheet with a column for the category. Add more columns as needed for sub categories. Add a link to a folder for attachments and documents.
💡 Flag Column if the data is listed rows, make column(s) and mark it with the rows you want to show on different views. Then use data filter feature to switch between them.
🏳️ Sasha's Planner

This planner was done in MS Word. It was convenient for reporting daily progress. But by August 2022 we stopped using is and use HTML TSN instead.
🏳️ Need Formatting This planner needs proper sizing for it to be convenient, but MS word does not remember the format for each document. It was inconvenient to set it every time it is opened.
🏳️ No Cache The Cache area of HTML TSN was more convenient.
🏳️ No Tallying Tanya's Field log in Excel has automatic tally. It is became our most advanced planning tool.

July 8, 2022 Friday 11:40 PM
Whale Nursery
2022-0708-2340

This is just a quick announcement that the Script Maker has been updated to support generating Quest posts. At the script maker, you may now enter the title, url, and quest id, then copy and paste the HTML code. After confirming the format of a quest post, the plan for the next step is to use tags for javascript to do what the script maker does.

Black: So far, the necessary parts for a "Quest Card" seems to be: Title, ID, Objective, and Credits.
Black: The card itself will fetch comments tagged with the same ID.
Black: Therefore, once the quest card is created, if you want to talk about the quest, you could just go to chat and tag your thread with the quest ID. Then when someone reads the quest posting, they can see your message.
Zoey: This mechaniism seems related to Book of Life quest for World Tree. So I'm tagging this thread. 👍
Black: This thread itself is about the format of a "Quest Card". If we have a standard format, then we can do less each time defining a quest.
Ivy: I think the purpose of separating data from its presentation code is to make it EASIER to change the presentation as we like. So the order you described is the opposite. What we could do instead, is to start defining new tags. It is up to the formatter on how to format and display that quest data. Potentially there can be multiple formatters. Either the chapter or the viewer can select the formatter.
Tanya: This would solve a very important problem that I face. Sometimes I want to see a quest in RP format, sometimes I want to see it in non-RP format. If there are two formatters, then I can switch between RP and non-RP. Correct.
Black: It is not clear to me what initiates the translation.
Ivy: Maybe we need to create or upgrade a more general object viewer. The function of the object viewer is that you feed it an ID, then it fetches the data and represents it. You can then click on different format types and it will format the display accordingly. Seems like the way to go. Black thanks all for the great inputs.

202207090858|Arx Dungeon Day 2
July 9, 2022 Saturday 8:58 AM
Arx Dungeon

Arx Dungeon is calling for heroes to resume training. To recap, the heroes are asked to identify and defeat monsters in the dungeon. The scoring system currently serves no training purposes, and is for entertainment only. Please use CHAT for RP and BUBBLE for non-RP

LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood opened a chamber and saw some monsters. Refering to this thread at Twitter, where a poster said Capitalism has nothing to do with poverty.
LRRH: What do I need to do to get some points?
Tanya: First you need to identify the monster. Is this burden of proof? If you follow the conversation, they were making a claim that Capitalism lifted people out of poverty, but when questioned, they asked others to prove them wrong instead of proving that their claim is right. Burden of Prove doesn't have a monster yet. What would you like it to be? Something that weighs you down. A sand monster that can cast quick sand. How about mummies? Good idea! 🍰
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood finds a mummy which is sprawning quicksand traps everywhere. Draw a Level 2 loot card please. It is level 2 because you identified a monster type that is new. Don't I need to defeat it before I draw a card? Spoting and avoiding it already worths a loot card. If you want to defeat it, it is additional. Then I draw a card. Avoiding the sand trap, Little Red Riding Hood got a sack of gold for 1000 points.
Ledia: Ledia arrives at the dungeon and sees the mummy and its sand. A general question: what does it mean to "defeat" a monster? If someone is using logical fallacies, are they really trying to learn anything or are they just pushing their view? Do we defeat them by ignoring all of them?
Evelyn: Evelyn arrives and casts Protect. The group now gains the effect of Protect. The speaker might be intentional to manipulate, but a bystander reading the thread could be manipulated. You could defeat the influence of their faulty logic by counter posting something. A response free of logical fallacies is worth 2 levels. I responded something. "In Monopoly, a player may own as many places they can and collect rent from those who have none. This mechanism creates poverty even if the players get $200 for passing GO. Any ism without rules against such mechanism creates poverty. Capitalism is just one of them." Then in terms of this game, you have defeated this mummy and you can draw another level 2 card. I'm really curious how Red fights a mummy.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood summons a giant pudding, which eats the mummy and mobs up the sand. The chamber is now clean. Little Red Riding Hood gets a Silver Ring of 2000 points.
Evelyn: Cute! 😊
Sasha: Meanwhile, Sasha looks into another chamber. In the posts leading to this, Repro argued that the record of how Egyptians moved rocks to build things were not enough to show how the Pyramids were built. This is No True Scotsman. In terms of monsters, I would say this is just a locked door or treasure chest. It is asking for the specific key to unlock it, which they know or presume to not exist. But there are in fact more ways to crack the lock. Good analogy.
Sasha: Sasha see s a locked treasure chest and nukes the lock. The treasure opens. Sasha gets a sack of gold for 1000 points. What's with Sasha and all the gold? Gold is all she ever gets! XD 1000 pts is almost as good as it gets for Level 2. Speaking from someone who knows all the loots. Evelyn thanks Sasha for setting up the dungeon. Sasha thanks StarTree for making an inventory of all the loots. Wee~!
Zoey: Zoey arrives. Seeing that Red and Sasha had already got some points, Zoey feels that she should really catch up. XD I think this is Composition/Division, because the argument appears to be, "All creatures can't be vegan in an ecosystem, therefore it is pointless for humans to be vegan."
Zoey: Zoey see another treasure chest, but could tell that it is a mimic, and fires a barrage at it. Too bad Sylvia had already decided the monster. XD Since it is the first time we see an example in the game, you may draw a level 2 card. I'll take that XD The mimic is KO'ed. Zoey gets a second Secret Door Card for 500 points. Why me? XD Jinx back at you! 😉
Zoey: Do these cards have a use in the training? If not they must be the worst loot. XD
StarTree: There is worse!
Zoey: No way! XD
Tanya: Having found two secret door cards, Zoey wondered if those cards are worth more than they appear. Zoey, I am open to suggestions if you want some other rewards or recognitions. I'll think about it. XD Whose turn is it? I think it is Ledia's turn. I opened a chamber but found nothing. 😖 I also opened a chamber but found nothing. I assume we just keep opening until we find something. Could we resume in the afternoon? The log for Dungeon has many links that do not belong to @Dungeon anymore. Yes we could resume in the afternoon.
🕰️ [3:28 PM] 🕰️
Evelyn: Evelyn returns to the dungeon and finds a Jack-o-Lantern. A loaded question was asked here: "How much philosophy do you have to ignore to pretend that "moral facts" are things that exist". Instead of asking a loaded question, the Tweeter could have cited references to philosophy claimed to be ignored, or ask the original Tweeter to confirm their intention.
Evelyn: I cast Protect III around the Jack-o-Lantern to contain it.
Tanya: Evelyn, roll with advantage for skill check please. This is the first time you use Protect III. Evelyn: ➕➕ 😃 Evelyn is recognized for Protect III, Rank A. Evelyn's Protect III trapped the flaming Jack-o-Lantern.
Evelyn: Ledia.
Ledia: I slice it with my great sword.
Tanya: Ledia, roll with advantage please Ledia: ➕➕
Tanya: Ledia's sword slices through the lantern in perfect halves, which exploded inside Protect III. A beautiful halo lighted up around the barrier where Ledia's sword passed. Evelyn spotted a new monster type and provided an alternative response. Please draw a Level 3 card. Evelyn obtains a Silver Ring of 2000 pts. Good job bringing the game back, Tanya.
Ledia: Ledia looks down the hallway. There seemed to be something lurking there. On the same topic that Evelyn cited, is there such a thing as "moral fact"? Given a set of moral rules that can be objectively judged, the judgment on whether a situation meets or violates those rules can be considered a fact. This is the same as saying having defined numbers a certain way, "2+2=4" can be considered a fact under those rules. Therefore, the OP's question could be valid. Fair enough.
Ledia: I got a better look at the hallway, and see what I believe to be Red fighting a monster. There was no sign of the monster left. Red had apparently defeated it. In this thread, the Tweeter that Red was responding to deleted their post. From what is left, it seems that the deleted post was using Slippery Slope or Composition/Division. Because the tweets were deleted, this doesn't make a good example for training. Please choose another example. Hmm... I sent that link to @Arena. I want to highlight somewhere that every time someone boasts about capitalism, they need to be asked whether taxation and national military are capitalistic concepts. What they call capitalism is at best a hybrid.
Tanya: So far Ledia had not been able to find any monster. Maybe this is not her day. Ledia, I give you one more chance to find a monster, else I think we should call it game today.
Evelyn: I bless Ledia to give her advantage to locate monster. I am assuming that the newer ones would be more relevant because before, @Dungeon was really @Concept, so Red would be tagging the Tweets for another reason.
Ledia: With Evelyn's blessing, Ledia opens the door of the next room. With or without monster, this should be the last room to clear for today.
Ledia: And she finds a group of Puddings and a Reaper. This is an example of Slippery Slope. The Tweeter argued that if work is voluntary, then people won't work because they prefer to relax. Therefore socialism won't work. But that situation is not different from a person stranded on a deserted island. Their desire to relax is kept in check by their needs to get food and supplies. In other words, they would work for themselves, as Red said in the response. And this is an example of Strawman argument. The OP never said that there would be profit, but the Tweeter assumed that there would be and created a situation that seems unfair in order to attack. Ledia, draw one Level 2 and one Level 1 card please. To not make a Strawman argument, the Tweeter could have asked, "Can people make profit in socialism? If so, how do you split profit in socialism?" Seek first to understand can also avoid the Slippery Slope argument. The Tweeter could have asked, "Are people eligible to welfare? If so, who provides welfare?" If the Tweeter had waited for a reply, they would learn that their assumption were incorrect. Someone knows how to play this game XD Draw a Level 3 and a Level 2 card instead please. How do I get a level 4 card? I would say if you give an actual reply, that would worth another level. But this thread is old and Red had already replied, so that doesn't apply in this case. Hmm... So it has to be current.
Ledia: As the Reaper swung its scythe at Ledia's shadow, Ledia summoned Tiamat to redirect the scythe to the Puddings. Ledia roll once please. Ledia: How do you want to do this?
Ledia: In one smooth swing, the scythe slices through the puddings and back at the Reaper. The Puddings and the Reaper are KO'ed. Ledia obtains the Reaper's Scythe (500 pts) and an ESP Medallion (500 pts). Those are literally the lowest value loots of Level 2 and Level 3, even if Tanya upgrade the Magic Sword to Reaper's Scythe. Watch out, Sasha, you could be next. XD
Tanya: With treasure to show for their progress, the heroes resealed the dungeon and returned to the lobby. Ledia and Sasha tie at 4000 pts, followed by Little Red Riding Hood and Evelyn at 3000 pts, then Zoey at 1000 pts. Until next time. Tanya thanks everyone for playing and setup.

Hello Guildmates, I might have some time to draw again. Is there something you want drawn?

Evelyn: Welcome back, 3B! 🤗 Thank you
LRRH: 3B, could you draw "WonderWoman". I was thinking maybe we could give her a picture for her birthday this month.
3B: Do you mean the kind that she could color? Yes.
3B: Hmm... I will ask what outfit she should have.

Hey hey hey! It's your puzzle master Mikela! The style of this post is different from before because the layout at @Puzzle has changed!

PUZZLE

You have been shrunk to the height of a nickel and is placed inside a blender. You mass is reduced so your density is preserved. The blender blades will start rotating in 1 minute. What do you do?

Amelia: Wake up from the nightmare.
Ivy: Do we still use the buzzer if we are trying to answer the puzzle? Yes please! Ivy: I just jump out of the blender. Very roughly speaking, every creature that can jump can jump about the same height regardless their size. If you can jump out of a blender before being shrunk, then you can jump out of it while shrunk. This is a science puzzle.
Mikela: Congratulations! We have a winner!
Casey: Ivy that's too fast!
Ivy: You can still try if you haven't read my answer.
3B: I would remove the blades with metal bending. 3B is now recognized for the Alchemist skill Metal Bend.
Sasha: So is this a science puzzle? Since Ivy got it right away.
Mikela: That is up to you!
Evelyn: If it were me I would cast Protect III and hope for the best. 😖
P4: P4 will fly out and turn off the blender. Thank you! 😊
Ivy: Umm... you won't have the strength to push the button. P4 tries pushing the button but fails.
Sasha: I can really only do one thing. So I would nuke it. If I see the electrical cord I would nuke the cord. Sasha nukes the electrical cord. The blender is now disabled.
Zoey: Is Mikela the puzzle master or a dungeon master? XD Hey, why not both! Mikela is now recognized as a Puzzle Master and a Dungeon Master.
Evelyn: This feels like we were playing Adventurer Begins. 😊 Yes that was fun.
Sasha: So is Ledia inside the blender also? Can Ledia break us out?
Ledia: Actually who are in the blender?
Mikela: Let's say each person is in a separate blender lined up in a row.
Sasha: That's too evil. Us talking will take 1 minute already, and I can't nuke all of the cords in 1 minute. Evelyn thanks Sasha for the kind thoughts.
Ledia: If I just Tiamat out I should be able to cut at least a few cords.If they all line up I could probably cut all of them in Accel. Ledia Tiamats out of her blender and cuts all cords with Accel, just in time before the first blender would start. Ledia is now out of mana and is considered KO'ed.
P4: P4 will sing for Ledia to recover MP. The scene is not over yet, most of you are still inside blenders!
Natalie: I can fill each blender will water for those who can float. I don't want to get all wet though.
Casey: Natalie can fly, why not just bring us a rope? Good idea!
Ivy: Ugh... Natalie went looking for a rope but there was no rope to be found, and realized that a rope which she could carry back would really be a string instead.
Natalie: So... on second thought, I would fill the blenders with water for those who don't mind getting wet.
Zoey: If my equipment is also shrunk, then I could fire a rope arrow and climb out. Zoey successfully escaped the blender.
Evelyn: I don't mind getting wet.
Sasha: Hold on. Now we KNOW that Zoey has a rope, so no one needs to get wet.
Natalie: Then I take Zoey's rope and help everyone out!
Ivy: As you take the rope and climb out... OMG NO! XD What? That's what a GM says when something bad is about to happen! XD
Ivy: ... you feel that your body is suspiciously light. It was much easier than you thought.
Evelyn: I check if I left something behind.
Casey: I jump. How high can I jump? Casey discovers that they can jump higher than the blender.
Ivy: Now go read my answer. OMG Science! XD Mikela: The official answer is that E=mgh. The height a rocket can reach is its energy divided by its mass and gravity. When you are shrunk, your energy and mass shrink in the same proportion. Result: you can jump the same height before you were shrunk! Congratulations to Ivy!
Zoey: I imagine that Ivy got out of the blender while no one noticed and just watched our drama! XD I thought you wanted to figure it out by yourself.
Sasha: But this is so unrealistic, if it happened for real, I'm sure we would have tried jumping.
Casey: Um... no. not with the blender blades right next to you. You got a point. Pun intended. 😆
Mikela: After discovering that they could just jump out of the blenders, all heores have safely escaped! Congratulations! Until next time!
Zoey: Hold on, Mikela! Are we still shrunk or not?! XD
Mikela: Let's say it will wear off by tomorrow. Ciao! The heroes have escaped the blenders and obtained the temporary aspect "Shrunk" for today! Mikela is now recognized to have the Magician Stunts: Shrink Ray and Kaleidoscope. Mikela receives Welcome to the FATE club!

Title

Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win

Disclaimer

This book primiarily discusses solutions to issues that arise in an authoritarian command structure. Quest Society employs a flat command structure. Therefore, you may find some of the concepts contradicting to Magic Bakery values.

Lessons - Part I: Winning the war within

Extreme Ownership On any team, all responsibility for success and failure rests with the leader. The leader must own everything in their world. There is no one else to blame. The leader must acknowledge mistakes and admit failures, take ownership of them, and develop a plan to win.
No Bad Teams Only Bad Leaders If substandard performance is accepted and no one is held accountable, that poor performance becomes the new standard. When it comes to standards, as a leader, it's not what you preach, it's what you tolerate. Consequencees for failing need not be immediately severe, but leaders must ensure that tasks are repeated until the higher expected standard is achieved in a way that encourages and enables the team to utilize Extreme Ownership.
Believe To convince and inspire others to follow and accomplish a mission, a leader must be a true believer in the mission. If a leader does not believe, they will not take the risks required to overcome the inevitable challenges necessary to win. Leader must always operate with the understanding that they are part of something greater than themselves and their own personal interests. If they cannot determina a satisfactory answer themselves, they must ask questions up the chain of command until they understand why.
Check the Ego Implementing Extreme Ownership requires checking your ego and operating with a high degree of humility. Wanting to win and be the best is good, but when ego becomes destructive when it clouds our judgment and prevents us from seeing the world as it is. We can't ever think we are too good to fail or that our enemies are not capable, deadly, and eager to exploit our weaknesses.

Lessons - Part II: Laws of Combat

Cover and Move Team members must always help each other, work together, and support each other to win.
Simple Simplifying as much as possible is crucial to success. As a leader, it doesn't matter how well you feel you have presented the information or communicated an order, plan, tactic, or strategy. If your team doesn't get it, you have not kept things simple and you have failed.
Prioritize and Execute Relax, look around, make a call. A leader must remain calm and determine the highest priority task and execute. A particularly effective means to help Prioritize and Execute under pressure is to stay at least a step or two ahead of real-time problems. Don't let the focus on one priority cause target fixation. Maintain the ability to see other problems developing and rapidly shift as needed.
Decentralized Command Teams must be broken down into manageable elements, and each tactical-level team leader must understand from upper chain of command why they are doing, and be given authority to plan and execute other than asking "what do you want me to do?" This allows Junior leaders to be proactive rather than reactive.

Lessons - Part III: Sustaining Victory

Plan Leaders must identify clear directives for the team. A broad and ambiguous mission results in lack of focus, ineffective execution, and mission creep. The mission must explain the overall purpose and desired result, or "end state," of the oepration. By maintaining a perspective above the microterrain of the plan, senior leaders can better ensure compliance with strategic objectives and be the tactical genius identifying weaknesses or holes in the plan. The planning process and briefing must be a forum that encourages discussion, questions, and clarification from even the most junior personnel. Time is made for a post-operational debrief that examines all phases of an operation from planning through execution, in a concise format. What went right? What went wrong? How can we adapt and be more effective?

A leader's checklist for planning

Analyze the mission: Understand mission intent and endstate
Identify personnel, assets, resources, and time available.
Decentralize the planning process: Empower key leaders within the team to analyze possible courses of action
Determin specific course of action: Lean toward the simplest course of action; focus effort on the best course of action.
Empower key leaders to develop the plan for the selected course of action.
Mitigate risks that can be controlled as much as possible.
Delegate portions of the plan and brief to key junior leaders
Continually check and question the plan against emerging information to ensure it still fits the situation.
Brief the plan to all participants and supporting assets
Conduct post-operational debrief after execution.
Leading Up and Down the Chain of Command Leaders must routinely communicate with their team members to help them understand their role in the overall mission, and push situational awareness up the chain of command. Take responsibility for leading everyone in your world, subordinates and superiors alike. If someone isn't doing what you want or need them to do, look in the mirror first and determine what you can do to better enable this. Don't ask your leader what you should do, tell them what you are going to do.
Decisiveness Amid Uncertainty There is no 100 percent right solution. The picture is never complete. Leaders must be comfortable with this and be able to make decisions promptly, then be ready to adjust those decisions quickly based on evolving situations and new information.
Discipline Equals Freedom Generally, when a leader struggles, the root cause behind the problem is that the leader has leaned too far in one direction and steered off course. Awareness of the dichotomies in leadership allows this discovery and enables the correction.

The Dichotomy of Leadership

A good leader must be:
Confident but not cocky; Courageous but not foolhardy; Competitive but a gracious loser; Attentive to details but not obsessed by them; Strong but have endurance; A leader and follower; Humble not passive; Aggressive not overbearing; Quiet not silent; Calm but not robotic, logical but not devoid of emotions; Close with the troops but not so close that one becomes more important than another or more important than the good of the team; not so close that they forget who is in charge; Able to execute Extreme Ownership, while exercising Decentralized Command.
A good leader has nothing to prove, but everything to prove.

July 10, 2022 Sunday 2:24 PM
Reading Club

We got this book Extreme Ownership: How US Navy Seals Lead and Win for the reading club. I don't think we can read it during lunch. So this might be a weekend activity and I will try to summarize relevant lessons somewhere.
Black: I don't think this is a military book but a leadership book.

Ivy: I'm interested. And I think we should upgrade Chapter 26 to house reading club study notes.
Black: Depending on the content, it might be related to @Whale.
Ivy: I take that back. Let's put study notes at Page \ Data, and link to it wherever we want. But I think Chapter 26 should have a link to that data so we know what books we have regardless whether there are study notes about them. Okay. What should the ID be in Data section? Let's use the same ID code format as posts. Which is "P" followed by 12 digits timestamp.
Tanya: I'm also interested. For my understanding, why do we need the P code ID? I use that so I can refer to a specific thing without querying the group. But wouldn't you be able to do so as long as the data name is unique? As of now, data-####-####-#### is not unique, it will query all posts related to object ####-####-####. I am asking why do you need ID="P############" when you could have fetched the same item by using data-P############? It is true that you can get it either way. But there is an advantage of using data, because <jq> tag alreadys works if you use data. That might be the way going forward, if we put the content in Archive also.
Black: Let's visualize it a little bit. So we are saying that we will create a div in Archive without an ID, because @Book can fetch everything with the tag data-book without knowing what it is. But if we need to edit the content, we need to go to Archive and locate that. How do we do that? I see. I am convinced that we need the ID. The ID is for us to locate it in the Archive, and for the Viewer to show the content. Yes. I forgot about the viewer. This means we don't need to make another viewer for quest objects either.
Black: Let's confirm with some basic tests before going any further. I added P202207101451. How is it? Do we want it to show on Calendar also? It looks fine showing on Calendar. Maybe all posts should look like this actually. The viewer does not automatically expand and show the content. We can fix that later. It is fixed!
Black: Thank you, StarTree. Let's start reading so we have enough content to keep up with what the coding can handle. Black thanks all for studying.
Black: And here is the 202207101451|link to the quest. Black receives Tanya receives Ivy receives
Tanya: The tone of this book is quite different from Arcacian principles. Maybe we should make a comparison on how a similar principle would be expressed in Arcacianism.
Tanya: For instance, the concept on page 238 would violate Arcacianism. It reads, "But at the end of the day, once the debate on a particular course of action is over and the boss has made a decision--even if that decision is one you argued against-- you must execute the plan as if it were your own."
Tanya: In Arcacianism, there aren't mandatory leadership. If you don't agree with a plan, then don't join the team. Some of the presented principles are about an authoritarian structure, but Arcacian structure is flat.
Tanya: In a Quest society, a person would join a quest only if they agree with its purpose. That voluntary dynamic bypasses many of the issues the principles in Extreme Ownership try to address.
Tanya: In other words, Extreme Ownership is teaching people how to fix a systemic problem (caused by an authoritarian structure) through people, instead of solving it at the system level. Quest Society is a system level solution to those problems.
Black: I somewhat agree. Should we stop or finish reviewing all the principles?
Tanya: Let's finish the principles since we are already on 11 out of 12 principles. But we should add a disclaimer that this book deals with issues that arise in an authoritarian structure, which is not really relevant to Arcancianism that uses Quest structure. In Arcacianism, "Leadership" means something else and requires different skills.
Black: I will pin your comment. Let's finish it.
🕰️ [7:36 PM] 🕰️
Ivy: So we finished reading all the principles. That means that we skipped everything about military operations. Those interested can find the book at the guild bookshelves.
Black: Should there be a follow up quest about this book?
Tanya: What this book describes as "Extreme Ownership" is a given in Arcacianism because quests are voluntary. By design there is no one to blame. The dichotomy of leadership described in its last chapter are basic virtues that everyone should strive to have regardless whether they are leading someone or following someone. Those qualities are what make a leader in Arcacianism popular.
Ivy: I disagree with the last part of your comment. In Arcacianism, a leader can be popular just because they have a lot of rewards to give. You can totally bribe people to become their favorite.
Tanya: You are right.
Ivy: In terms of follow up quests, I think we have way too many unread books to focus on this one, and even more non-book quests to focus on reading. I think what we need is to start creating an inventory of the books we have, so we can Prioritize and Execute. Being true to our Quest Society structure, and having no leader telling us what to do, I propose updating Chapter 26 @Book to have a quest that includes a routine that inventory books we have, prioritize a book that can help us the most, and read and procedue a summary like the one we did.
Black: I see Ivy is communicating the intent of the quest quite clearly.
Tanya: In Quest Society, if your quest is clear and simple then people can understand and do it. The Quest Giver doesn't take all the credits because each Quest Taker gets their own credits. The person that ends up having the most credits is not necessarily the Quest Giver. I feel that principle that Extreme Ownership mentioned are built-in to Quest Society. In a Quest Society, you don't need to be taught how to be a leader. the Quest System drives a person to take responsibility of their actions. Tanya, I think we understand that. You are just repeating yourself now. I'm sorry.
Black: I think we have done enough for this topic. Thanks again for reading. I think we did a good job noting that might be helpful to us. If we need to refer to it, we can now link to 202207101451|P202207101451.

July 10, 2022 Sunday 11:26 PM
Philosophy Arena

Philosophy Arena has been updated to reflect what I think should happen. Please help update the champion profiles and add the avatar pictures. @3B, @Ledia

Evelyn: This looks much better that what we did!
Ledia: I think I need more explanation to update the profiles. What should be in the profile?
Fina: Principles and attributes, possibly translated and formatted into what you would expect when you see a profile of a fighter game character. It's a fighter game XD
Ledia: I can kind of see that. Is there hit point? What should hit point represent?
Fina: I think hit point will correspond to followers. But I don't want to answer everything. I think you can figure it out.
Zoey: But if you know it already it will save us time doing something you don't want. XD
Fina: Then let's just say I don't know anything more. But if I see something I don't like I can tell you.
Evelyn: I think that is very generous of Fina to help us, we will do our best and figure it out! 🙏
Fina: I put Arcacia as a Champion. If you also want to fight for Arcacianims, you could add yourself as a separate Champion, even if you are fighting for the same philosophy. Why is that? Your combat skills are different. Hmm... I guess that makes sense.
Fina: I think you can handle this. Good luck. Fina thanks the team in advance.
Ledia: Well what do you think? It is late, so let's discuss later. Okay. Then I'll just put some notes so I don't forget. I think we need a way to translate popularity into hit points. Maybe we can think about that until we discuss.
Tanya: I think gamification will be easier once we gathered all the statistics and facts. So we should just fill out the profiles with facts and definitions. Gamification comes after that. Skipping the facts will make it very difficult.
Zoey: I agree with Tanya. Gathering facts and definitions is easier. We already have some at Seed of Peace. I will do what I know first, especially when I agree that that is the first step XD.
Sasha: Cardinal, Pixie. It is past midnight. Everyone is considered KO'ed.
Sasha: Sweet dreams, everyone.

Magic Detective

Amid the mountains of board games that people think Sasha should work on to reduce, Sasha decided to tackle a problem that is the most current, which is to populate the profiles of the champions at Philosophy Arena. After all, the moutains of board games have been there for a year. People will get use to it. 👍

Sasha: For popularity, I propose using Google Fight unless someone has a better way. Here are the results from Google Fight. Google Fight is dysfunc. Sasha takes 1 psychic damage. Sasha is now KO'ed.
Sasha: Why? I thought it was fun!
Zoey: This could be a sign that you should clean up the board games or they will turn into zombies and bite you XD
Sasha: No, never! You just don't get rid of things unless you need the space. Everything you keep is potentially something that can help you later.
Tanya: You don't need another website to tell the search count. Here are the results:
CAPITALISM: 351 Millions
COMMUNISM: 324 Millions
SOCIALISM: 294 Millions
IMPERIALISM: 108 Millions
PACIFISM: 33.6 Millions
STEWARDISM: 6260
Hospitalianism: 4
ARCACIANISM: 1
Tanya: And also...
VEGANISM: 1.19 Billions. We need a name change to Veganism XD The philosophy might be different, but we can promote Veganism also.
Sasha: That Google search score is just one aspect, don't place your bet yet.
Evelyn: I cast raise on Sasha. Sasha is now restored to 1 hit point. Thank you.
Sasha: So. With that result, I suggest every multiple of a thousand is a hit point. So Arcacianism has 1 hit point, and Veganism has 4 hit points.
Zoey: I'm adding Veganism so that we don't forget about it. I think StarTree should be the Champion for Veganism. Wouldn't that be Cannibalism? StarTree doesn't actually need to eat anything!
Evelyn: StarTree, would you be our Champion for Veganism?
StarTree: Okay! I'm rooting for StarTree! Pun intended XD
Tanya: I think this result should be in the Challenge section. It is a challenge of search visibility or fame. If we want to promote Arcacianism, we need to make it more visible.
Zoey: On the record, the 1 hit search result for Arcacianism is not from us. It points to a Youtube page from 2008, which only has a URL to a dead website. At least the message seems matching: "The Meaning of Life and Universe." It is a pleasant surprise that the search result is not 0. 😊
Tanya: We should at least get some other links, because this is a good opportunity for someone to search "Arcacianism" and unambiguously reach our definition. I understand, but I would still root for StarTree. We'll promote peace through both. XD

Awareness sets a philosophy champion's hit points.
Well-known Philosophies might not be right, but unknown Philosophies are definitely dead. Therefore, the well-known-ness of each philosophy directly corresponds to their hit points. We estimate the well-known-ness by using search result. We understand that a recognition survey would be more accurate. We use search result as a quick estimate.
Scoring Method

Search the term in Google and check the number of results. The philosophy gets 1 hit point if there is at least 1 hit. For every 1000x hits, it gets another hit point.

This quest node logs efforts to make "Arcacianism" searchable. Promote peacemaker concepts and let more people see themselves and grow as peacemakers. Increase Arcacia's hit points for @Arena by increasing the search visibility of "Arcacianism." What is our overall plan to promote the content using various platforms and tools?
    Survey at least monthly at each site to identify peacemaking opportunities and solutions. Add peacemaking content (or links to the content) at each site. Respond to inqueries and comments directly to us from various sites. This section is about what to check when we choose a publishing platform. For this comparison, what about blogger or wordpress then? They are also free, editable and world readable. From this comparison, it seems that substack could be worse than wordpress. And we didn't choose wordpress because it was not free. https://wpwebinfotech.com/blog/substack-vs-wordpress/ Blogger was the free version but we migrated from Blogger because it wasn't cute enough. No Cuteness No Life. XD We need a platform that allows newsletters so people can tell what is updated, and a way for people to comment. What is the workflow to "use" Substack? Would we just use it as a Newsletter and link to GitHub as allowed in TOS? https://substack.com/tos We can use it as a bulletin board to supplement GitHub. Then how about Medium (100 million users)? It has more users. Or even Twitter (368 million users) if the actual content is not at the platform. https://techreport.com/statistics/medium-statistics https://www.searchlogistics.com/learn/statistics/twitter-user-statistics There isn't really a reason to just post to one platform if that is just meant to link to GitHub. Updated node format. To use a distribution platform, the bottleneck is not really the platform but the quality of out GitHub nodes. Do we make enough high quality current/relevant content to draw people's attention? This consideration was in 202302261915|Post Quest We still have an active request to make anti-bias presentations. The workflow I imagine is we go to places and observe issues. We list them on the Help tree even if we don't know how to resolve them. We add content for those that we can resolve. Periodically, we can report about our issues including the unresolved. We don't necessarily need to know how to resolve everything. Maybe someone can tell us the solution in the comments. Then it is a quest board. It is both. If you don't directly link to GitHub then there is less need to clean up GitHub. You could just ask questions and post the slides. If we ask questions, we need to check and respond to the replies. There is an upkeep to review and add the replies back to the nodes at GitHub. In that recard NextDoor is quite bad because it deletes unread notifications quite quickly. They are still in the email! I think we might need a daily quest to respond to feedbacks and only expand to a new platform if we can respond fast enough. Or you could just have a policy of not responding by default. And reply to a comment only if you did do something about it. When the discussion is open, commenters might respond to each other. But I think even if we adopt Evelyn's workflow, there won't be a problem because I wouldn't expect there to be many comments to respond to. My concern is that responding to comments should not be first priority. We usually look at issues that other's don't see. We asked the question, when they respond, they are doing the quest, so we should/have to respond. If we are asking question, how is it different from Quora or Reddit? Or are they the platform that we want to expand to? I think that is part of what Evelyn was saying. There are more platforms than we can handle to post a question.So we should expand slowly. But does that even make sense? You don't know which platform will give you the good result. So why wouldn't you ask on as many platform as your "asking session" allows and check as many replies as your "inbox session" allows? We can sync ourselves by only asking a question when we have processed the replies. If you ask on 10 platforms, you might waste time checking duplicate replies. So there is some work or experiment to know which platform gives better result and concentrate on those platforms. Are we talking about the situation when ChatGPT doesn't already have an answer? Yes. And we won't end up asking anything since ChatGPT already has all the answers. XD So before posting a question, we need to first screen it with ChatGPT. We need a newsletter/quest letter workflow section. It seems that you don't own the content posted at Medium. https://medium.com/@passive.income.journey.web/can-you-post-the-same-content-on-medium-and-substack-b447f3a9de7a Our canonical URL should always be GitHub. So we should make sure that the GitHub site is presentable. But the article says Substack does not allow specifying canonical URL. https://pubstacksuccess.substack.com/p/why-i-link-to-medium-posts-in-substack And Substack might be bad for GitHub search result because it does not support canonical URL. https://www.authormedia.com/substack-for-authors-an-exciting-opportunity-or-just-hype/#:~:text=Substack%20has%20no%20canonical%20URLs%20and%20very%20limited%20SEO%20optimization. That might not be a problem if the Substack post is different. https://www.authormedia.com/substack-for-authors-an-exciting-opportunity-or-just-hype/#:~:text=Substack%20has%20no%20canonical%20URLs%20and%20very%20limited%20SEO%20optimization.
      Why don't we try substack? https://substack.com/signup?utm_source=substack ✅ Free ✅ Editable ✅ Reach ✅ Commentable ✅ Newsletter ❌ Cute
      The site needs to be at least free to us. It is better if it is also free to the viewer.
        Substack makes money by subscription and promotes sites that has subscribers, but it also allow accounts that do not require a subscription. The account holder can decide which post is viewable without subscription. X is also free. For comparison, Notion is not free because it has a node limit.
      The site should allow correction or updates, so we don't need to make new nodes for updates or delete an old node that has a typo.
        Substack allows editing after publishing. https://substackcourse.com/can-you-edit-a-substack-post-after-publishing Twitter only allows edit to paid users.
      The content needs to be world readable.
        Substack is world readable. NextDoor posts are limited to neighborhoods even when set to "anyone". https://help.nextdoor.com/s/article/Visibility-on-Posts-Made-to-Anyone
      The platform needs to support notification so followers may know what has been updated.
      It needs to let people comment.
        Out GitHub website is not commentable because it is static.
      We migrated from Blogger/Blogspot because it was not cute enough. Is this an actual requirement or nice to have? XD

This section is about the number of search hits for "Arcacianism". In my understanding, we check the hit count of "Arcacianism" because it is rather uniquely us, so it helps us evaluate how well each method works to promote a keyword. The key to making a term more searchable on Google is to provide high-quality, relevant content that is well-organized and easy for search engines to understand.
    Make sure to use relevant keywords in your content. Think about the words and phrases that people would use to search for the topic you are writing about and incorporate them into your content. The title and meta description of your content are what appear in search results. Make sure they accurately reflect the content of your page and include relevant keywords. Use header tags (H1, H2, H3) in your content to organize it and make it easier for Google to understand what your page is about. Linking to other relevant content on your website or other reputable websites can help Google understand the context of your content. Canonical URL https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/consolidate-duplicate-urls Use alt tags for images: Alt tags provide descriptions of images on your website. Using descriptive alt tags can help Google understand the content of your page. Schema markup provides additional information to search engines about the content of your page. This can help your content appear more prominently in search results.

Right now Google search doesn't show hit count, not in incognito mode. The hit count is 285! You can see it after clicking on Tools button! Good Job! Let's go! Added Question Society and Hospitalianism. I see 1490 hits. Last time in February, we called this a fluke I see 1550 hits. Reformatted the log a little bit. Combined the entries. It seems that Google Learn About could be useful on how to improve our website content.
This section is about how to upload to YouTube to increase Google hit counts for "Arcacianism."
🐤 Steps

  1. Compare for MP3 Run comparison on "My Music (Not Uploaded)"" to "My Music" and show only mp3 files on the left that is not on the right. These are candidates that can be uploaded. Sorting by size normally show the most completed songs.
  2. Audio Tweaking and Video Making Run Audacity on the MP3 to normalize the volume. Apply Treble/Bass filter as needed. Run Clipchamp to make the MP4 file.
  3. Uploading Upload with "Arcacianism: Let people help each other and reward those who do." in the description. And "Arcacianism" in the tag. After uploading, move the folder to the right side.
These are tips from YouTube Creator newsletters

Testing

✅ In Playlist, with tag 20231221: Testing with having just "Arcacianism" in the tag {"cmd":"url","url":"https://youtu.be/w1Q6PeyNvPA","desc":"🔗"} and got a hit on 20231224.
❌ In Playlist Only 20231224: Testing with just uploading it to the playlist {"cmd":"url","url":"https://youtu.be/_tc0HSNWBmA","desc":"🔗"}. 20240407: No sign that this contributes to the hit count.
Here I am trying to log observations on how youtube postings are related to Google Search results. Max Hits: Suspected to be 10 Sasha: 20230117: Today it shows 4/32 hits on youtube. 3 of those 4 are from our Youtube Channel. Sasha: 20230214: Today it shows 7 hits on youtube. I think the last time I checked there were also 7. There might be a max of 7. Sasha: 20230806: Today it shows 10 hits on youtube.
How it works: Include "Arcacianism" in the title or description at the time of posting. Sasha: 20230117: All of the video hits have the word "Arcacianism" on the title. The latest video Magic Vacation was posted only 14 hours ago and it is searchable. Sasha: To confirm whether the word "Arcacianism" only matters at the time of posting, I am removing it from the title of Mirror of Dreams. Sasha: 20230917: Confirmed that having the word only in the description could also get a hit. Third Person Singular.

202207121416|The Levitator
July 12, 2022 Tuesday 2:16 PM
Fort Arsenal Jewel Market

At Fort Arsenal, the heroes are in the middle of questing while waiting for the market to clear for investigation...

Sasha: If we are just waiting, could we talk about something else? I want to get Mice & Mystics. It is really cute and it is on sale.
Tanya: I think we have too many board games.
Sasha: But this is VERY cute and it has 6 player characters, just like us. Cute!! 😍
Zoey: The review says there is a lot of reading and the gameplay is just meh. We don't have to follow its rules.
Tanya: Would you rather spend a lot of time playing that game, or spend the same amount of time playing our guild quest?
Zoey: I would consider it progress if Sasha hesitates XD
Ledia: I thought we went through that with Adventure Begins. If it doesn't lead to some EXP I feel empty doing it.
Sasha: But it is really cute. And if we have time reading FATE, then we have time reading its story/manual.
Zoey: Game Manual reading club! That's the first! XD I say we shelf this discussion because yes we are waiting, but there are also things we can do. Let's switch to the Levitator. Yes, commander.
Sasha: Sasha WISHES **@LRRH** that the guild would get Mice & Mystics and play it in a way that is fulfilling and rewarding. Sasha makes a WISH. That's cheating! XD
🕰️ [4:44 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: What do we feel like doing? Now that the market is in session again?
Evelyn: We planned to look into Deer Crossing tomorrow. Maybe we should help on the Guardian quest?
Ledia: I think we need another page for Cardinal Quest quests. Because Chapter 30 proper is about the rule set, not our quests. I think they can just be in the same chapter. I also lean toward them being in the same chapter. Why do you think that they should be separate? It is just an idea. Please don't think too much about it.
Ivy: I think we are moving toward having personal dashboards. Each member can maintain their own page and pin whatever they want to show using jquery tags. That's true. If we configure our own dashboard then we can visit each other's dash board. 😊
Tanya: Monster sighted. Dispatching now.
Ivy: In the last couple days the power of the board increased a lot after implementing a quest template. Now the board is much closer to the original vision a year ago when Chapter 13 was created. I think we need a centralized quest board. There you will be able to filter quests as you like. I think I should start listing the features to work toward.
Zoey: I can hardly keep up with the last few days! XD
Ivy: Take a long exhale. It is better than taking a deep breath for calming down.
Zoey: Thanks for the advice XD
Ivy: I believe the next major step for the guild is to transplant our content to github so we can make use of databases. OMG XD I thought I would just give you a heads up so you would be more mentally prepared. I see.
Evelyn: Should I stop importing old posts to blogger? 😖 My transition plan is that we try to consolidate and restructure everything in Blogger as closely as what we would need for an HTML website built from scratch, then the transition might be just as easy as copying over a few files.
Ledia: What is the purpose of transitioning? To implement a quest society system we need a way to tally points. That means that we need a platform where a user can post quests through the interface instead of editting HTML as an admin. The user shouldn't need to know how to code to post and do quests and get credits. The platform should also need to tally the score and display it. Blogger lacks access to a database for that kind of interaction. I kind of like how we can have different pages. If we switch to the new one will they all look like standard forms? No it won't. You can customize it however you want. But the database is there to store the data for you. Then I don't see any down side since we already aren't using any Blogger features. We are already coding in HTML. In terms of difficulty it seems it will only become easier. That's my assessment. AFTER we lay down the ground work and have a working database.
Ivy: Imagine this. Say I have an idea for a new quest while chatting, just like now. So I open a side panel, browse to a quest that is relevant to peacemaking, and click on a [+] button to add a new quest. And Voila. If I want to mention that in a chat, I can drag that quest and drop it in chat. I agree that is the best. I hope I can still help making it… 😅
Ivy: We need a list of features so we can easily ask others what platform would be the best for this. WordPress might be a good choice…
Zoey: I think our priority right now should be @Arena because it is very central to what we need to do as a guild. I wouldn't mind if our actual quest handling system lags behind, because the technicality is never a question. We know there is no technical hurdle, it is all in advertising the idea so others may want to have such system. I agree with Zoey's priority. I'm not trying to convince anyone to change their priority. I am just forecasting what is next so when we upgrade blogger we are making changes in that direction.
Zoey: I am fine as long as we are not shutting down Blogger tomorrow and have to build another site from scratch to catch up to where we are before we can see the @Arena fights XD
Tanya: Kiv replied about the Levitator. Tanya moving out.
Sylvia:
🕰️ [6:24 PM] 🕰️
Sylvia has identified wrong leylines. Sylvia receives
Tanya: Levitator issue is fixed and we can continue, thanks to Kiv. Although we should have checked and found our errors. P4 has corrected the leylines to the Levitator. The Market Square Levitator is now online.
StarTree: Remaining quest hours is now 101.75, down from 104.25! Congratulations!
Evelyn: I have just added the check to our field guide. 😖
Tanya: @StarTree, when did we discover this problem? It was July 8 Friday around 6 PM! Then you looked at it and fixed a problem yesterday at 5:30 PM. The party that prepared the material at first were Sylvia, P4, and Evelyn on June 16 at 6:30 PM! I'm sorry. I think it was me who gathered. Please down rate my skills for the game. 😖 Evelyn's crafting skill is now Rank C.
Evelyn: I will be more careful to so I can help. 😖 It could be worse. Yes it could. That's why it is a problem. It could have exploded. Tanya, I think we understand how serious this is.
Tanya: We need a countermeasure to prevent this from happening. While we are at it, that wasn't the only thing wrong. All of them had the wrong seal, and I replaced them all. There were 3 errors affecting 8 out of 11 leylines!
Sasha: But it was good that we kept at the quest so we have time to fix it. We will add more checking steps BEFORE we activate things.
Sasha: Let's go back so we have time to work on things and stay ahead.
🕰️ [11:16 PM] 🕰️
Tanya: I'm sorry for making the situation unpleasant earlier. Thank you for bearing with me. Tanya thanks everyone for their hard work. I don't want this to go down in record as a sad day. Sasha's wish has been granted.
Sasha: Thank you! Let's play together, as a team! I didn't do that.
LRRH: It is CUTE!!!! CUTE IS JUSTICE!!!
Zoey: Isn't this counter productive? XD
Sasha: It might be counter intuitive but not counter productive. There goes the chance of rehab for Sasha XD
Ledia: So how are you going to make it rewarding?
Sasha: I want to say, "I will figure it out", but what I really want to say is, "It IS the reward!" If it is not your cup of tea then please sit out. But I hope that you would enjoy it we can play it together, most likely in Magic Bakery style where we keep our skills but nerfed as mice.
Evelyn: Let's work and play together. 🤗
Sasha: I won't take anyone else as healer. Today is a good day. 😊 Evelyn loves you all. Sasha is now recognized to have Wish Rank B.

RS said he likes the poet badge we gave him on his profile, and asks for ideas for his website. I quote below: "Btw, I like the profile that you created for me. The poet badge is nice!"

Zoey: Are we the people to give advice? We could barely keep our own website up. XD
Black: He said yesterday:
RS: I'm bad with graphic design and user experience, so I'm asking to get ideas.
Tanya: The content looks like a poetry diary, maybe a word cloud would be interesting. I am not bothered by the style right now. It looks clean. If you click on a word on the word cloud, it could open the poems with those words. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/03/18/20/25/word-cloud-679935_960_720.png","desc":"🔗"}
Black: @RS: Maybe you could add a section about guitar? You said you want to learn to them.
P4: Could you make a section where a person can click on a button and it plays a chord? Then people who can't play guitar can play guitar chords using your phone.
Black: That would go well with hiking. You could sing along without bringing a guitar.
P4: We plan to do something like that at our own music section but haven't gotten to it.
Ivy: Not to be negative but one of the main goal about hiking could to be detached from social media, and there is also a problem of signal strength to connect to the internet at all... That's pretty negative even if you want to avoid it XD I just don't want someone spend time making something that won't be practical. I want to be able to use it in the city. I understand your use case.
Ledia: RS, to add more contents to your profile, is there any particular type of skill and magic you identify with? If you are a RPG character, what kind of character would you be? If your website is a location in an RPG world, what kind of location would it be? (Is it a house? A castle? a tower?)
Zoey: On the Exquisite Corpse Proem section, what is the code in parenthese next to people's names? I thought those were numbers of words they added at first, but it wasn't. And it wasn't their initials. Is that a riddle? XD Ivy: The codes appear to be the first five keys on the left side of a qwerty keyboard. Are you coding the website on a gaming keyboard or something? XD

Welcome to our board game library where you can borrow games from our list! Please keep the games clean and account for all pieces.
    Inventory the board games we have at the guild. So that we don't get duplicates. Discover our interest and define rules on when we should get or get rid of a board game. Promote happiness by sharing the games and saving happy movements.
This section is about what games to get and what games not to get. This section is for notes on what games we don't tend to play.
    These are games like Connect Four, Tic Tac Toe, Blockus, Go. We tend not to play competitive games. We change the rules of a competitive game into co-op game. Competitive games include games like chess and most card games. This might be a logistics problem but we don't tend to play deck building games although we keep track of skills online. I thought this is a copyright issue. We don't play games with complicated rules unless a GM is running it. XD Maybe we are just really impatient. Similar to not play complicated or long setup games. I am talking about games like Werewolf. Such as Scrabble. I don't think we should enjoy war games, or we should train ourselves to recognize that the context of such game is not enjoyable.
Promote and maintain the board game library. Merge the Favorites section to the main list.

Play at least one game each month. Trying to see how to make this node more like a catalog for the board game library. The plan was to keep the list on Google Sheet and export the content here. But we never exported that list. Black was trying Notion but I think that went dead. What should be done? Would it be cute and easy if each new game is added here directly? Isn't that the plan? To stop using Google Sheets? Trying a new search section. Why do you need a new search section? Once the game has a node you can list them with QSLTree. I want to discover what I want to see. Made the search work for mbNote in addition to Div. Also added to LI. How is this? I think the top level should be the game titles because the search function can filter them by genre. The idea I logged was a tile frame. On each frame you could put the stats or the properties of the game. Wouldn't that be similar to the scoreboard? But with a picture of the game instead of an avatar. Should we show thumbnails on the list? We could instead just show links. Maybe Sylvia's plan to just show text would work for the listing. Could you add some titles to show how it would look? I think the simple vertical list looks better than listing the titles sideway. Especially when the Notes format is in all caps, long titles aren't readable. If they are listed vertically, the format is almost the same as QSL. Maybe we could modify QSL. I think the icon on the left should be about availability, since that is the most important. I think each game entry would need to be a macro, since we shouldn't "present" the data in the archive. They should just be data in the archive. Then there is the question of should the data be store here at the Board Games node, or should the Board Games node query all Game nodes to get the data stored in those nodes? The games are items. In the archive they should go into the inventory. Then wouldn't an "item" just be a resource? If so we have a macro, we just need to add more fields for the macro. Maybe make item a resource type, and add the availability field. We are getting closer. I think tiles don't work well on the phone. They take too much space so you need to scroll too much. I think the way forward is to use the res macro. It can handle the cases when a game does not have a node. Maybe we can continue soon, if we don't go ahead and try playing one of them. Adding MacroResItem to handle the new fields of the RES macro. Could the available icon be something cuter instead of the green block? I think in this case you could just use the icon of the game but use sepia filter when it is not available. If you do that you can't filter the available from the unavailable by the search box. Instead of filter, how about just a small green or red circle? Changed "Unavailable" to "in use" with a yellow circle. So that it is easier to text filter. For me to want to add board games directly to this, I also need these fields: owner, origin/source, acquired date, price. But I don't think this information needs to be displayed, or if they should even be displayed. If you don't mind keeping that information in the archive but not displaying them, they could just be fields that the code does not render. And I think a link to BGG or Amazon should be links with their specifc label "[BGG]" and "[Amazon]". I think we should have those fields instead of the generic "src" field. I think it needs a component checklist so that you know what the set should have when someone returns it. How do you record who borrowed the set if you don't use Google Sheet? If the borrower wants to be anonynmous, we could just use a nickname and keep track elsewhere. I think the items are not expensive so we don't really need contact information. How do you recall the game when someone else wants to play and placed a request? Local Auxiliary Archive. You store that extra information in local storage data that you can export and import. The guild copy of that data can have contact information of the borrower. I see. Added a todo list. The alernative implementation is that instead of defining a RES object for each game, just create a DATA section in the game's node, then populate this search list by querying game node data. The advantages of that implementation are: 1) You don't need a separate ID for the item, 2) You can keep information about the game all in the same node. To do that you might need to make custom QSL code similar to sitemap where it shows the list as part of the node body instead of in the end. You could customize it so that the first icon is not the tree search, but the availability icon. That is a reimplementation. It should be done as early as possible to avoid unnecessary changes later. I changed the first task of the todo list to use query list. Thank you. The game nodes deals with the game as a design, but the library item object deals with the physical game set with its components. If we have two copies of the game available for borrow, what happens? Then put a RES object in INV. But information such as game title and url are shared among the copies and don't need to be stored again per RES. They are in the DATA section of the node. If the query list just displays the node content, I don't need a field storing the BGG and Amazon links. They would already be part of the card. I still want the URL macro be simplified as Zoey said? A url macro is just a res macro or type URL and a SRC field. It will be just a little bit shorter than the existing macro. It still need to be coded. To put things in perspective: When I get a new game, I am supposed to check whether we already have that game. Google Sheet right now lists 189 games. Until that entire list is available on the archive and is easy to add, I still need to use Google Sheet. Right now we only have 15 game nodes. Ivy's direction means we need to make make about 170 nodes before it could be functional for me. Do we really want to add 170 nodes to the archive? that is 10% of nodes in our archives. If we keep the current res list structure, we can probably export the entire list this weekend and it will be functional (for me when getting new game). Until we play the game we don't really need a node for it. Then it won't crowd the search when we list all nodes. Node making is not an issue. If you can export the list as RES structure, you could also make nodes from that list. Okay, then it comes down to "do we want 10% of the nodes to be games? I think until we have a justification the default should be we proceed with them just being RES object in the Board Games node. If we make nodes before we have something substantial to say about them, the website will look really empty. I agree that we should not make more nodes unless we have content for them. I think having fewer nodes is easier to maintain. It has everything I care about and I don't have to remember how I divided them into different nodes. I don't want to split it unless I have to. Since escaping the game entries from Google Sheet has an immediate benefit, and the cost to go from RES to new node is less than going from Google Sheet directly to nodes, the step to make RES nodes is beneficial. So I think my priority is to first export the list as RES. Sasha will be a main person using the list. Thank you and please add a scroll bar to limit the height of the list. In other words: Make it easy for Sasha to stop buying duplicate board games that we will never play ASAP. XD Righteousness. Added y scroll. @StarTree. Roger! Added script. Added the games not on Google Sheet. Imported 194 games. What should be done with games with long names? Please enable text wrap. Done! Please make the links display. It is necessary to confirm the title means a specific game. Updating RES URL macro. Actually can URL has its own simpler macro? We need URL inline all the time. It would be better if it literally is just the tag url. Roger! Adding GetURLCode, MacroURL. The style of the link can be defined by CSS mbURL! Thank you, I think my priority is done. This is all I need. Wee~~! Showing the genre to allow text filter. I think we don't need both the DTS and the Registered date. But there are duplicated DTS. Removed the registered field. Someone please update all the duplicated DTS. I think we can just delete the old search section. But a node should get a link. Adding a the link to the body. Tidying the sections. Tweaking the display format. Sasha feels ready to get more. XD Move the why section earlier. Moved the Why section. Change the name to Goal. Need to list games with no link. Use ??? For unknown loc. Use non breaking space between field title and data. Sasha comes to make small fixes for the board game library. Use a cipher to shorten the dts id. This morning I thought that the 14-digit item ID is too long when displayed, so I wanted to make a cipher to shorten it. But if I make it shorter, I can't just copy and search for it in the code, and I don't think the code should have both DTS and the Ciphered DTS. So maybe it should not be displayed and there should only be a bottom to copy the ID. What do you think? How much shorter do you want it to be? Ideally only 8 characters. YYMDHmss. Use Hexadecimal for M, extended code for D and H, then use three hexadecimal code for the 3600 seconds in each hour. If you use all hexadecimal, the code length is still 8 digits so I'll give that a pass. XD What is extended code for D and H? The day code goes from 1 to 9, then to the letters but skips I and O because they are confusing. That gives you a total of 33 symbols. If that is the logic I would also skip S and W. Then the code has exactly 31 symbols. Is there a point to this cipher? Suppose it is displayed, how or who is going to use it? Is it that much better than just the timestamp? The code for the time stamp "20240504102358" becomes "2454A59E". I think it is quite readable. If you want to use a code that like, the encoding should gaurantee that there is at least one letter so it cannot be mistaken as a number by the script. For example let the month code be only a letter. ABC DEF TUV XYZ. Then the code is "24E4A59E". Its use? It is shorter. That code has no meaning to the people borrowing the item. It also almost has no meaning to us other than as a unique identifier. (Although it is also the "birthday" of the item.) Doesn't it look better when it is shorter? I think it does look better and seems to save a good amount of space for something interesting. Then do you save the code also in the RES entry or use that instead of DTS for RES entries? It would be easiest if I just use that code as the DTS. But what are the pros and cons? I think the codes does not query RES objects by DTS, so RES objects don't need a DTS code, as many used for displaying images do not. Maybe you could just set that code as the value of item. Archive 3 does not use RES, Archive 2 uses 16 RES for images without DTS. Archive 1 uses 195 RES for game items! I think that is a good idea. StarTree please add a button on Node Maker to make the Item Code. You can always count on Ivy agreeing to making the archiver smaller. Roger! In the source code, this item code will be called "DTC" which means date-time code. Adding function DTC, DTCYear, DTCMonth, DTCDay, DTCHour, DTCMMSS, NMDTC. Testing. Done! It is complicated as expected. XD (Updates the listing code and adds max width for the side box.) Sasha made the code add the item code to all 194 items. Now items only have the DTC item code. Sasha wins. Added sorting buttons. Fixed sorting by date. (Added code to show the interest field) I think the code should automatically count the cats and display the number. Then what happens after those who wanted to try the game have played it? The code can decide what to show if there is a more important. (Adding QSLSortByIcon) Thank you! Added code to keep the scroll position at the top after clicking on a sort button. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72394378/flex-container-with-flex-direction-column-reverse-will-not-scroll-to-top Auto hide entries that do not have the icon when sorting by icon. Changed the code to show the random sort order and made it always in ascending order. Added filter by genre section and filter by comments section. Adding games to the list, updating info. Changed the genre tag to tags to make it more general for item list. Allow Genre to be a pipe separated list Mark which game has been played. Need a tab to include gaming gear/dice Add button section to remove an item from view. Add button to remove all in display. Need a filter to show games not yet played.

    No ganging up on a player in a way that prevents a player from enjoying or participating in the game. What if the game has player elimination? If the game is long and has player elimination, maybe we can change the rules. No bullying, such as mocking or saying things that are meant to make a player upset or angry, or unjustly vilifying a player.
This ranking follows our normal skill ranking where Rank S means that the game teaches Rank peacemaking skills that would work on hostiles. But to get a D, it only needs to refresh peacemakers of peacemaking skills. A fail in this category are games with problematic content, such as those that pit a player against another. It seems that if a game is competitive, it would fail in this category. An educational game teaches the player something useful outside the game itself. I think games with abstract rules would fail this cateogry, even when they make the game challenging. This rating is about how easily the game can be reproduced. The game fails if it does not support print and play or player generated content, or requires hard to get material. I think this would rule out most story heavy game unless the story is freely available online. The game needs to have a way for the player to lose! The game is too random or does not have a losing condition. This rating means that you want to keep it through the ages even if you are not playing it yourself. If you don't want to keep it, or if the game is based on some fad that fades. Can star ratings be calculated in a similar way as puzzle difficulty rating? Should the star rating mean the chance that a player will like the game? Wouldn't that be the heart count? If we also count the number of people who don't like it to get a percentage. Could we do star rating based on criteria like easy to learn, replayable, good interaction, etc? I like that direction. Wouldn't that normally be a subrating? Each one could have a 5-star rating. I think that is too complicated. I think it is okay to just have a pass/fail on each of five categories, and together that gives 5 stars. I think the rating should include educational value and challenge. We have two rubrics at Arcacian Quest: Educational and Fun Factor. Each has its own S ranking. Then would replayable, good interaction, challenge, and easy to learn all be part of "Fun"? I think cuteness needs its own star. If a game gets a C or better then it gets a star. Easy to copy should get a star. I want game components that don't depend on language. But that might be part of "easy to copy." Maybe peacemaking values can be separated from being educational. I count five: Peaceful, Educational, Fun, Cute, Reproducible. "Reproducible" should be "Accessible". Then how bow change "Cute" to "Endearing" and "Fun" to "Challenging"? PEACE Mandatory mnemonics. Would games that are not designed to have free print and play version be considered accessible? Let's fresh out the rubrics.
Loading the air caravan(s). Loading the air caravan! This is not a trivia game, but more like ticket to ride. New in shrink wrap. This game is complete, but it is one of those games where you are supposed to save the frame of the cardboards after punching out the tokens so the box can close without a gap for the tokens to spill around. And this set didn't save those cardboards. I'm just going to add some ziplock bags... This game has an interesting semi cooperative mechanic where each player is building two casltes, one with a fellow player on their left and right. The score of a player is score of their worse castle. I think the reviews are spot on. The game compnents are well produced but the art is just dim. Maybe we can make a cuter version of this. Peaceful, Educational The trivial questions seem pretty hard. I think this set is cute. This set is missing a small 7. I think this game could be fun. I think this is like Cards Against Humanity but for kids. Is this game educational? These cards are not convenient because the T/F answer is printed next to the question, so you can't even pass it around or quiz yourself without carefully covering the answer. T/F: Ostriches bury their heads in the sand to hide from predators. True. False: They run away. It they can't run away, their flop to the ground to blend in the terrain! https://www.clevelandzoosociety.org/z/2020/03/11/truth-or-tail-do-ostriches-really-bury-their-head-in-the-sand-when-scared-or-frightened This set is missing the red ship. This game says it is rated #1 party game on Boardgame Geek. This set is missing the game manual, which can be found here: https://www.scorpionmasque.com/en/decrypto All other parts are accounted: Sand Timer, 2 Screens with 4 leg pieces, 110 keyword cards, 48 code cards, 8 round tokens, a book of note sheets. This set is complete. But curiously one of the decks is still sealed. As if someone opened it halfway and decided to just donate it. I think this game might beed parental guidance because the cards feature food ingredients from hunting. This game is about gathering sets and score points. It seems it could be rethemed so that the food items are quest cards. The mechanics of the game is not like questing and quest taking shouldn't be as competitive. Saw this as a cafe. Seems complicated. Played this game at a cafe. Could we play this with a normal deck of cards? Each card has shape, color, number, and shade. A normal card only has a number and a suit. The Set deck has 81 cards. Could we make a deck with cuter symbols? Good game. This is rated for Age 7+, I hope that the words are simple enough for kids. This zombie game abstracts away fighting. A kid always wins against 2 or fewer zombies, and must retreat/cannot enter a room with 3 or more zombies. The board is split into two pieces. The second envelope is missing. R1 sticker is missing. Also missing 4 plastic standee stands. The part list said it should have 4 standee stands. But why? There are only four characters. There are alternate heroes in the envelopes. https://www.scorpionmasque.com/sites/scorpionmasque.com/files/zke_enveloppes01-13_en_10dec2020_0.pdf https://www.scorpionmasque.com/sites/scorpionmasque.com/files/zk_rules_en_web.pdf This is a card game with some dexterity play in deflecting a ball and catching the snitch. We saw this game at a cafe. It seems relaxing. With 8 flowers and 4 sides, how many combinations are there? Isn't that 8x7x6x5/4=420? The deck only had 28 cards. Complete. Complete. This is the 2005 version and the box and challenge book is a little beat. The set is complete otherwise. This is quite challenging. This game is complete. The insert has space for a tile tower that this set does not have. This set is complete. This set is complete. This game is a remake of Love Letter. It says it is rated 7+ but I think it needs parental guidance because this game is about screwing other players over. For those interested, the cards number from 0 to 10. Most numbers only have one card, except: Five 1, Three 2, Three 3, Two 4, Two 5. The components are simple but the text on the cards are quite long. I think if you were to make a copy, you might as well do it based on Love Letter. This game is more random than Love Letter. This set is complete. This is a trivia game but you score only when you catapult the dummy to hit a target. Does the dummy make the game more fun? The crash dummy is smaller than I expected. This game seems similar to Santorini. You place blocks during the game and try to be the first to climb the center tower to get the idol and bring it off the island. I think this context needs parental guidance. The theme of explorers racing to take a native artifact is morally wrong. 😖 The game's description didn't explain or gave any justification. What would be an appropriate context? The default is that if the artifact is left in the open, it would just get destroyed by nature. So it should be retrieved and put in a museum. It doesn't explain why they are racing and sabotaging each other. A cooperative game of a similar theme would be Forbidden Island. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/65244/forbidden-island You could play a GM mode where one player tries to reach and destroy the idol, and the other players work as a team to retrieve and escape. This game seems playable. When each team think that the other team will mistreat the idol. One team wants to destroy the idol, one team wants to sell it, one team wants to sell it to benefit a charity, one team wants to place it in a museum. I think the museum and charity teams could work together. The seller team tells you they are also a charity team. So would the destroyer team. XD A good team wouldn't sabotage a teammate. +1 This game suffers a bit from a typical cooperative game where a dominant player might direct the whole game. This is a game where try to name things according to the prompt within 5 seconds. I think you can play this in cooperative or competitive mode also by letting players draw cards, then play a card to appoint a player to receive the challenge. This deck has a different bird drawing on each card with their common name below. This game arrived in shrinkwrap without any cardboard box, and has no damage. This deck has 13 dragons. This brainteaser is rated for 2 yearold and up. This is a build your own and sabotage the other game. I haven't checked how this game plays but its score at BGG is surprisingly high: 7.8. Could this game have similar mechanics to what we are designing for quest society? I watched the review https://www.youtube.com/watch. It doesn't seem similar to quest society, but it is interesting in its own right. This game has some mechanics similar to bridge. This game seem really well designed, it is a rare cooperative game where a player can't just coordinate the whole game. I don't think the mechanics of this game is similar for Quest Society, but it could be a retheme. The sequel might be more similar: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/324856/the-crew-mission-deep-sea Moving this to the break room. How to play: https://youtu.be/umD2WfbTsZc?si=hho2ZGNH7LV8fcDX With our new PEACE rating, this game would get three stars for being peaceful, accessible, and challenging. The type of puzzle in the game is abstract. It is challenging but not educational, since the puzzles are completly abstract, except for the story in the log book. I think this game is not endearing because it has the theme of space exploration, which is very niche subject in humanity. That rating method turns out to be quite tough. I think this game would be cuter if it is rethemed for deliveries. It plays like you are hitching a ride sometimes. This game has Little Red Riding Hood. I think our Quest Society Deck can have similar content. The theme of this game is messed up, but there might be something interesting about the game mechanics. Maybe we can change it into a game about making cookies. The manual said there should be 108 cards, but I counted 118. According to Tom Vasel this game has no strategy, it is all luck. Is that true? Can we make it better? This set is complete. This is a souvenir deck that has cats dressed as nobles. I couldn't find a link for it. I got this deck to help play test our game. The more colorful graphics for the royalties make it easier to identify them. These wooden dice don't have rounded edges. It said the shortest games are 10 minutes. Unlike most game that try to be eco friendly, this game is completely plastic, so it is actually good for a lunch time game. I think this game will look a lot nicer with pastel and anime graphics. This game might be short enough for lunch. To be honest the cards look kind of ugly because all the characters are colored in pink. And the power cards only have symbols on them without description. Suggested making a something wild deck for us Maybe we can make a Yahtzee score sheet node. How to play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkoVJCnvUVQ This set has two boxes with three decks of team building conversation topics and activities. This has some example cards for printing. https://cdnsm5-ss19.sharpschool.com/UserFiles/Servers/Server_3951548/File/%20GMS%202020-21/Conversation%20Cards.pdf This set didn't come with rules, they are on a photo here: https://store.wikimedia.org/cdn/shop/files/Wiki_Dice_Game_Instructions_2.jpg?v=1724695025&width=1100 One of the dice has an O that has a score of 4 instead of 1. Could their production be all wrong? Customer service said they think the game was sold starting 2022. I was surprised that they answered this extra question. The dice:
1) Logo, G, R, L, E, U
2) Qu, X, I, Z, E, K
3) J, V, Y, I, B, T
4) C, P, T, S, N, G
5) D, R, N, A, U, S
6) M, N, C, C, L, P
7) S, H, I, A, W, L
8) Y, O, T, H, F, M
9) U1, F4, W4, O1, T1, O4
So the wiki shop sent us a second set that has the rule sheet, but die #9 has a mis print again where there is an O with a score of 4. What is the highest scored word you can form from these letters:
I1 W4 L1
F4 R1 V4
P3 S1 R1
swirl wisp RSVP I didn't see swirl. Do I win? Répondez s'il vous plaît. Next time let's go for both longest and highest score.
What is the longest and highest score word(s) you can form from these letters?

This game is so cute, but it involves a lot of lying. Can we still play this? I am not sure how to rate the peacefulness of this game because it involves problematic themes like robbing, lying, and smuggling... I think if a game needs parental guidance then it is probably not peaceful enough. "Rob the rich" is a problematic phrase because people who are "rich" might not have done anything wrong. I think the context in this era was that you really can't be "rich" unless you exploit the people. I would give this game a pass because it clearly poses the moral issue and it shows that in some cases you are supposed to go against oppressive laws. When the king returns you get bonuses for helping the villagers. It has a very paladin perspective. I think the game almost don't need lying if you just make deals with the sheriff to not check each other's bag. But that is still law breaking. The game itself doesn't have a cooperative mode. 😖 They are cooperatively helping the villagers, and the sheriff can only check one bag each pass. I think if you use our ranking, the ethical content of this game could be Rank A, because it could sway reluctants to understand that sometimes it could be justified to "rob", lie, and smuggle. Okay. So this is what Rank A content might look like when it is not just preaching. I think a game for kids shouldn't skip the intermediate step to the stage where the players need to smuggle. I think that harms the fun of playing the game. 😖 As I said this game is cute even if you fine the theme objectionable. This simple game might be fun for lunch. How is this game playable? Wouldn't you just count silently and play your card at the count? I realized that too, after getting it. I think that is the game to figure that out. It could be zen. Complete. This game gets a 3.8 on BGG, which is pretty low. This game is about guessing who said the quote. I would think I don't know most of those people but the quotes might be interesting. Maybe you could turn it into a game of playing a card that a player would agree. That would be interesting. For Inspiration: I think some cards are funny and would work as item favor text. This is a set of 4 figures for the tablet game. Can you even download that game nowadays? This is a 78-card deck with suits of Beakers, Books, Pentacles, and Torches. This set has many small pieces. It comes with a reset instruction, but I haven't checked if it is complete. This set is missing 2 pieces of the lower left corner of the dessert menu and all 8 barrel shaped pieces in the control car. This is a detective jigsaw puzzle game. I got it sealed so it should be complete. Not really a fan of cyberpunk theme and this graphic style. Then why? XD A Magician can't be too picky. This set is new. Assembly required. Maybe we can play board game at lunch. What games would be suitable? Timeline, Crack the Case? The games might get greasy at lunch. Preferably not card games where you have to use your hand to hold cards. How about love letter? Why not show the cost of the games? We got most games at really low prices, will people don't take care of them as much after seeing their costs? Animals are cute. The box needs healing. A score of 4/10 at BGG seems pretty low. Is this as bad as its rating? The version we have is this: https://www.nobleknight.com/P/2147878215/Escape-From-the-Grand-Hotel-2019-Edition This deck has 1000 thin cards. Quiz decks can go the draw deck as challenges. This is a cute deck of cards, although all the cards only have the same graphic on the back. The pennies are huge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-up I think we should add this as a deck in the draw deck. If we need to draw treasure, attribute, or monster, and we roll this deck, we draw the card from this deck. This children game looks cute. 🤗 This is a card deck of yoga poses with teaching tips for kids. That price ($245) at amazon. XD A score of 7.8 on BGG seems pretty high for an educational game. This set is missing one wooden dice. This set has a dragon. This game looks so odd it could be fun. Have the kids played this before? Idk I think it is worth a try. In this game the players are trying to answer a prompt in a way that hides them as the speaker. This set is missing two short dashes. I think this will be interesting to play at least once. If the photos in Picture This has this quality it would be great. I think this game is like Werewolf but with a less violent theme. This set is at least missing two pawns. It needs counting and some dividers to hold the components. I like the color of the blocks. 🤗 The puzzles seem hard though. Do it upright and upside down. +1 I challenge you! This game looks nice and seems different from other games. I like this game. It is fast. Robert 2 Roger 1, Black 1 What do you do with cheating for some cards? That is possible in some games. If you cheat against your gaming group you would just lose credibility when you are found out. Is this like Go Fish? They should make a set with princess peach. That was fun! Maybe we should have star ratings for games. I think this game is good but compared to the Crew maybe a 3-star. I also think that the cards are cute but I hope that the players aren't trying to block each other from sending a letter. For this reason it is not peaceful. 😖 I think this game would pass accessibility because it is basically a card game with some rules printed on them. It is easy to make your own. I think this game might be two star for being moderately challenging and endearing. I think this game is borderline too ransom. It is randomized during the game. Whether you win or lose is most based on the luck of the draw. It becomes less random toward the end when you can guess the card of the other players. I think the cards are cute. +1 For those not familiar with the show, the categories can be confusing. I think wheel of fortune plays better when you can't spin again after getting a letter correct, because the other players would have to wait for too long. Never heard of this game. Could we play war games as long as we play on the same side against an AI (e.g. Cardinal)? I think the main issue is the theme. Couldn't you just change the theme? You could change all battles into dance battles. I think there are enough games with themes that we can readily play. Witches gotta have more ritual equipment. Ideomotor Effect https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20130729-what-makes-the-ouija-board-move Where should Ouija board be in a store? https://nextdoor.com/p/_NMddp_3fT59/c/1256277179 This game looks interesting but it is the kind of game we don't play. How to decide whether to buy a game/toy This set has all the marbles but not the instruction or the box. It is for this game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_men%27s_morris Is this like a drinking game? Isn't it just because it is an old game? XD https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1187590/why-did-nine-man-morris-status-as-a-classic-fade-i The rules seem so arbitrary. Why does having three in a row allow you to remove an opponent's marble? What does that represent? But it makes a lot of sense if the pieces are shot glasses... If your glass is removed you have to drink it. Then why would you want to win? Drinking games don't work on P4. XD A better explanation on how to play. https://heritageireland.ie/assets/uploads/2022/11/The-Medieval-game-of-Nine-Mens-Morris.pdf I think it would be more convenient if the pieces are flat tokens instead of marbles so they won't roll around. I think the game looks magical because it is ancient. Educational games based on books are usually non-playable. How does this game fare? This set was missing one standee holder. I replaced them with seven transparent ones so they all look the same. This game seems cute. By the way I got this at a discount, meaning it had been on the shelves for about a month. I heard that we had this game before. Interested. This game looks cute. This game has a board and counters in a big box. This game has Panic on the Titanic, Alice in Wonderland, and Dawn of the Zombies. Rated 16+. This game has a pretty low score (3.6/10) at BBG. "The worst escape room I've played." Now we should play it! XD I hope that this puzzle set is not missing any puzzle piece. I think this game is for kids. Should the small puzzles that are completed be scrambled? I don't think we will play this. Got it for the card for inspiration. Can't you just brain storm or use a dictionary for inspiration? This game contains pictures for people to guess. I think we can't post the pictures online, but we could find the corresponding royalty free picture online. I think the cards are supposed to be in boxes, but we got this as a used set where the cards are all mixed. We need to somehow sort them back into the boxes... This game is a contest of imagination judged subjectively. According to BGG, this game isn't really playable because there is no rule on who shall win. It is up to the rotating judge. I got it for the ideas on the cards. Maybe we can redraw them. At this point I consider Sasha a board game collector, collecting different board game for the sake of variety. I don't think Sasha needs to justify her picks. XD I don't just get every game. I am choosy. This set is complete with 112 cards. 50 Warriors (+6 blank), 25 Items (+3 blank), and 25 Battlefields (+3 blank). The rules actually seems quite playable. Especially for us because be default we roll dice. So this game is compatible to how we would normally play games without losing anything that the game crafted. I am adding a "try" attribute to rank the games on how badly I want to try them. I'll try. If we are using how rules anyway, then there is no rules to learn. That's a plus. Let's play Story War. @Cardinal please run the game as a co-op. A new dungeon has been discovered. What treasures and monsters await? I arrive to explore the dungeon. Casey is at the foot of a giant beanstalk that stretches up to a palace in the sky. Winged Unicorns are circling the beanstalk in midair. Am I supposed to be able to solo this? It seems extremely dangerous unless you can fly. Do you have a jetpack? Can I use a mech to pull on the beanstalk and pull the palace in the sky down? Please roll 3+. ➕➕➕➕➖ Casey observed that the palace in the sky seems light and decided to pull the beantalk with a mech. The plan seems to work, Casey thinks, as the flying unicorns fly down to attack the mech. Anyone on scene please describe what you do in the situation. I cast sleep on the unicorns. Ledia recognizes this as a best them to ride them situation. She lights up her great sword and unicorn color and provokes, "Let's see who's boss!" I switch to cast protect instead. 😅 I use illusion to camouflage the area with flourishing flower petals and starts casting a nuke in case Ledia fails. Pretty! I fly to the palace discretely under the cover the flower petals. I try to tame a unicorn with a lasso. XD I ride up the beanstalk. I connect to the beanstalk. We're going to convert everything! XD Natalie please roll 3+, everyone else please roll 2+. Flying: ➕➖➖➕➖ Protect: ➖➕➕➕➖ Challenge: ➕➕➕➖ Camo and Nuke: ➕➖➖ Lasso: ➖➕➕➖ Climb: ➕➕➖ Connect: ➖➖ Pull: ➕➖➕➖ While they may look impressive to the team, Sasha's new skill is ignored by the unicorns. Sasha is being chased down by unicorns and is out of breath. In the chaos, Zoey lassoed one unicorn, which is growing to like this ragdoll it gets to thrash about. It is not clear if holding onto the lasso will have the effect Zoey expected. In the center stage, Ledia and a distinctive unicorn are having a mutually respectable match and attracted a ring of unicorn spectators encircling both Ledia and Evelyn. It appears that unicorns matches fight in pairs with one champion and one support. As the champions fight, the support is supposed to walk around casting support magic on their champion. The support champion in the ring paces around Evelyn taunting her to use better support spells. With the support unicorn, Ledia is slowly but surely losing the match if nothing changes. With everything going on, Casey could mostly continue pulling down the sky palace undisturbed. Casey please roll 1+. Casey did not notice that StarTree who was trying to connect to the beanstalk nearby had disappeared among the spoil of beanstalk. StarTree is considered KO'ed. Friendly fire! XD 🏳️ Up in the sky, Natalie was first to arrive. She sees three items: 1) a Mega Mushroom; 2) the Excalibur; and 3) a Thunder Hammer. Red arrives second and sees two items: 4) a Time Bomb, and 5) a Wishing Star. Adventurers (including StarTree or any new player), please describe your next move to be continued in the next session. To be continued. XD Good session. I am wondering if sky palace is supposed to be free floating without the beanstalk. Is the relation between the palace and the beanstalk obvious as I look around the palace? I will wait for others to describe through throughts, then we roll to see whose context is correct. I think we are supposed to defuse the time bomb. But then it would mean someone was trying to blow up the sky palace. For the game, what skill should I be using to help win? How does that fight work? The supports are healing the fighter but the fighters and the supports don't attack the supports. Wouldn't that just be a really drawn out fight? XD Can I have a skill that let someone use my XP to boost their stats? So if Evelyn is level 100 and Ledia is level 80, giving her all EXP would boost Ledia to level 128. How many advantages is that worth? I think that skill in general should not be worth doing unless Ledia must solo, or there is some skill only available to her at a higher level. What are high level cleric skills? If clerics are similar to WHM, then they can also use nature/elemental magic. I thought the context is support, not nuking. The other unicorn is not nuking Ledia. I think Ledia is stronger by herself if we don't force her to tag team with me to combo. I want a skill that frees Ledia to solo. 😖 If Evelyn uses a skill that raises my level, I will unleash a purified version of Tiamat power and keep it purified even after her skill ends. For those who have described their action, please roll 3+. For those who have not and want to continue, please describe and roll 2+. The delay was too long. I was still lassoed to the unicorn with sheer determination: ➖➖ XD I am pretty sure that by now I had pulled the sky palace down: ➖➖ 🤷‍♀️ I do the skill where I boost Ledia with my mana/XP. ➕➖➕➕➕➖ When in doubt, I quickcast and nuke: ➖➖ StarTree connects to the beanstalk: ➖➕➕➕➕➖ I find someone at the sky palace and learns that the beanstalk entangled them, and get the Excalibur to free the palace. ➖➕➖➖ I defuse the time bomb. ➖➕➕➖ P4 wants to get the Wishing Star. ➕➕➖ I unleash my Levelyn Power. ➖➖➕➕➕➖ It's Fusion! As Zoey, Casey, and Sasha are getting KO'ed by the unicorns, Evelyn activates her new skill to boost Ledia. The illusionary flowers that Sasha made turned real and let everyone willing to join the boost. How would you like to do this, Ledia? I give the boost my Tiamat mana and transform into Levelyn form, which is a winged unicorn style outfit with two braids. The unicorns like this new form and want to learn how to transform. Meanwhile, Natalie couldn't find anyone at the Sky Palace, but was able to get the Excalibur to cut the beanstalk. But at that point, StarTree had already taken control of the beanstalk and found that... The beanstalk absorbed Mega Mushroom spores and turned into a Mega Beanstalk, which snatched the passing sky palace. Seeing that their home is freed, the unicorns fly back to the sky palace. To catch up to the other migratory palaces, they dropped various items left by invading adventurers: 1) An abandoned Thunder Hammer that can be repaired and recharged. 2) A Pumpkin Chariot that only runs at night up to midnight. 3) A Tempest Teapot that can summon a storm. 4) 5) A Winter Wand that can freeze things. and 6) A Mirror Shield. Does everyone get something? What is the catch of the teapot, wand, and mirror shield? They look like normal items. They weren't treasures, they were abandoned and we don't need to return them to the adventurers for a reason. I get the Pumpkin Car. Sasha now has the Pumpkin Car, which, during the day just looks like a normal pumpkin. Since I am a mage, I am going to enchant it so it basically functions as an RV for the night and it can move up to midnight, but doesn't turn back into a pumpkin until... whenever I get up in the morning... Sasha can feel that she is stretching it, the success rate of this enchantment is about a roll of 2+. On a fail the pumpkin could just blow up. Maybe you can give up the part where it can move? Why does it need to move when you can carry it around as a pumpkin, which you can just store in inventory? XD A moving house is cool. StarTree will help Sasha do the enchantment! The success rate is now 4+. Sasha please roll. ➕➕➕➖➖ StarTree please roll 2+. ➖➖ With StarTree's help, Sasha got what she wanted plus a little extra. The pumpkin RV can hold itself into brunch time or until it drains Sasha's mana. StarTree is out of mana and is considered KO'ed. Thank you! I want to get the mirror shield. The mirror shield has a rather unsighty crack. But it is supposed to reflect damages. Since I haven't actually done anything as Levelyn, I will use my unicorn healing and transformation power to turn the cracked mirror shield into a winged mirror shield. Levelyn please roll 4+. ➕➖➕➕➖ Levelyn succeeded and obtained a winged mirror shield. I will get the hammer. Casey would have no trouble fixing it, except the hammer is huge: too big for Casey, and too small for the Mech. I will think about what to do with it later. Casey now has the half-giant Thunder Hammer. The most useful thing to me seems to be the Winter Wand. What is the catch? Zoey's elemental inspection tells her that the wand is supposed to freeze objects at range, but it instead does AE freezing centered at itself. I will fire it like an arrow. XD Zoey obtained the AE Winter Wand. I want to be able to summon the Excalibur. Natalie discovers that ever since she picked up the sword, she has been having this feeling that people all over the world are trying to borrow the sword, but the sword had chosen her to be the lady of the lake to hand it out. It would appear the the previous lady of the lake had had enough. XD With pleasure. Natalie is now the custodian of the Excalibur. Am I actually somewhere or am I part of Levelyn? Everyone sees Levelyn asking that question. 😅 The Levelyn effect lasts for one week or until Levelyn is KO'ed. That effect seems too long. You could just use up your mana. I give mana back to everyone. Everyone else on scene now has full mana. StarTree is no longer KO'ed. Levelyn is still Levelyn. I think I still have a time bomb that can "blast you into next week." Okay The countdown timer of the Time Bomb was 1 week. But since Red defused it, the current countdown is only 10 seconds. The bomb explodes on Levelyn, and Ledia and Evelyn emerges from the smoke, along with a rainbow colored Philosopher's Stone which is a transformation catalyst. Evelyn gives the pretty stone to Red Cute 🌈 StarTree stores the Mega Mushroom ability. StarTree succeeds with no difficulty. P4 currently has the Wishing Star, and the Teapot is left untouched. Does anyone else want the wishing star? What is wrong with the wishing star? The wishing star is an orb that looks like a Dragon Ball. If you make a wish while holding it, the wish may come true in an ironic way. That could be the worst item. XD Not if you use it on a villain when they make a wish. Then P4 will keep it. As P4 says so, the wishing star fuses inside her such that she is forever in touch with the wishing star and no one else can touch it. No!! Not to our lucky girl! XD I wish it to come back out. That wish had no effect. I shadow clone. Each of the four P4 has a wishing star inside. Now P4 just need to be able to make a total of seven clones. XD 💟 Unless they are all one-star. XD Meanwhile, the Tempest Teapot is rattling and spinning. It seems to be a piece of trash that is worse than a piece of trash. It seems to be powerful, but in the most annoying and uncontrollable way. I think we can't leave it there. I can't think of what to do with it. But I can lock it up in Arx. The philosopher's stone can transform something into something else. Maybe it can transform the teapot into an orb, then it won't be rattling. It seems like a waste since the resulting orb doesn't seem useful either. A catalyst means that it can do its job without being used up. Just saying. You never know what happens when you fail a roll. XD I deploy my pumpkin RV for everyone to have a sleep over. Cute!!! The pumpkin RV is effective at blocking the clanking of the tempest teapot. This puzzle is too hard. Why don't I just freeze it with the winter arrow then smash it? XD But if it keeps spinning it is at least a perpetual energy source. We don't really need perpetual energy source in a fantasy world. XD Maybe it can be used as a water magic training tool. If your water magic is high enough, you can keep the water calm. Evelyn hasn't gotten an item yet. I say this is destiny. Of all people only Natalie and Evelyn would have a chance of 1+ to calm the teapot. Sasha feels offended because she can summon tsunami. That is not water control. XD I guess I will try. But why turn something energetic into something calm? Maybe we can make it energetic in a convenient way. Turn it into a teapot that can brew any tea endlessly. To be honest that was probably what it was before it was broken. I cast protect and try: ➕➖ With effort, Evelyn is able to make the teapot not make a sound while it shakes. But the rattling resumes once she takes her mind off it. My turn: ➕➕➖ With mild effort, Natalie is able to make the teapot not shake at all, and it remains not shaking for a few seconds after she takes her mind off it. Evelyn is recognized for Fine Water Control Rank A. Natalie is recognized for Fine Water Control Rank S. P4 thought of licking some Mega Mushroom then swallow the Tempest Teapot. Then it would be so annoying in her body that the Wishing Star will come out. But then P4 thinks that the Wishing Star will be lonely so she doesn't want to do it. As she says that out loud to the group, the Wishing Star comes out and rolls into the Tempest Teapot. The Tempest Teapot becomes quiet as the Wishing Star is spun by it inside. It seems that P4's feeling was not reciprocated. It is a Wishing Star of Rebellion. I give P4 a hug. おかえり。 💟 As such, the party is able to have a peaceful night at the pumpkin house. Until the next adventure. GG XD Good ending. Evelyn is recognized for the Cleric Skill Level Fusion Rank A. For Red. The card style looks nice. I like how this deck has traditional drawings of the characters instead of just photographs. This set is missing the instruction, one frog token, and the hourglass. This game is rated 8+. I think this is an area control war game. But that might not be how we play it. Not really a fan of this art style. The last two Exit games with 2/5 difficulty rating was a little too easy. This one is rated 4/5 in difficulty. This is a detective game each player tries to convince others that they are innocent waking knowing if they are. I don't know if this game has an English version. Interested. This game is quite fun to play. When playing with just a few players, we removed the rules on speaking and just let everyone speak any time. I think the randomly assigned character and character settings cards help the players not get so invested in their character and play for a fun story. Although the theme won't pass Magic Bakery requirements, this is closer to Detective Conan level of violence. For the Law Game. I think this will be a good story game for us. Interested. Let's play this. These games are rated for 10+ year-old, but this one has a skull key and could be scary. This one is a little easy. The chance and chest cards are funny. "Forget real estate. You can't afford it anyway." XD This is like Apple to Apple, but the prompt is a job title and the players are choosing whacky qualification cards to give a compelling story for the interview. This deck of playing cards use the house symbols as the suits! Yes please. What is the order of the suits? idk... XD We don't have this game, but we talked about it a little bit. 202403161819 Daggerheart session 0 https://www.polygon.com/tabletop-games/24099460/critical-role-daggerheart-character-creation-one-shot Combat in daggerheart https://www.thegamer.com/matt-mercer-critical-role-new-ttrpg-not-dnd-dungeons-dragons/ Daggerheart https://darringtonpress.com/playtest-daggerheart-right-now/ This figures look cute from a distance. The kids like this. This puzzle is cute and easy. This game takes longer than exploding kittens because a dead player may come back. I like the graphics on this deck better than exploding kittens. This is quite playable. This is a game to feel like a caveman. This could be a game for us. This game looks really pretty! Maybe we need a category of self-help games like this. I got this because I am a witch. Our the box and paper components of our set (not the one in the link for reference) is pretty beat up. Got on sale. The one we have has a white box like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/124734599030 For collection and decoration. Got this onsale and this set came with two dice instead of one. Set up the pieces according to the book then use the fewest moves to cover each cat. So cute! On Junior puzzle #16 😖🙏 We don't already have this, do we? I thought we do. Not according to the list. The list is probably not complete. XD I got this game because I have never seen it before and it looks cute. It is said that this game is not like Risk at all. This is a lite version of Dungeons and Dragon. The components are nice and we played it with Magic Bakery RP rules. Reference for our Quest Cards design: Adventure Begins https://149455152.v2.pressablecdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/DDAB_scenario-cards.jpg Where did we play Adventure Begins? That was 20220123 at the Deer Crossing node at Blogspot! That node is huge! XD 😖

Retrieve EXIT: Tomb game to write the story. I know we have one already but it is not at HQ and it is on sale. I think we shouldn't get it just to save it from trash. Why not? I think we don't have this version. Then we have three! XD We should at least play it once. So we have been secretly designing a card game but I think it is time for some review/input by the guild. The inspiration was Battleline: Medieval. But we want a version that can be played on a normal deck of playing cards, and stick to simple rules. Theme: We play tested with the WWII spotter cards, although there could be a cuter theme for Magic Bakery and Quest Society. Theme: We used war planes but conceptually there is no dying because there is no discard pile. But we designed the suit abilities based on warfare: Rebel, Recruit, Ambush, Recon. The biggest "challenge" of this design is how to translate it to a Magic Bakery / Quest Society game. The main mechanism to evaluate strength is based on probabilities of the three card patterns. What is equivalent to a straight or three of a kind in questing? Also, we have six archetypes. Does it mean there should be six suits? If we stick to four suits, what should the suits be? The four suits can represent End goal (Diamond), Policy (Spade), Infrastructure (Club), and Community (Heart). In co-op mode, The cards on the quest side represent the difficulty of the quest. (It is up to the players to imagine what those quests mean). To clear a quest, you either play enough cards to exceed the sum in each suit, or you use "ingenuity" which is the common card-suit patterns. It is up to the player to imagine how that ingenuity overcomes the challenge. Any special pattern that forms on the quest side represents complications. In this case can the player side have more than three cards? I think the Solo Mode should alternate between playing a card face down and up, or only play a card face down if there is no card facing down. I think we need to play test to see if we still need to set a max of only three quester cards per quest. It is more thematic if more questers can do a quest. I don't think you should have to wait for a quest to have three cards before you do it. So if you are a 10, and you see the quest has one revealed card with low or no number, you could attempt the quest with a club card (Using just the raw numerical sum) and brute force it. I don't have a problem with some quests being soloable. I just want to make sure that if the cards show characters, the low value characters can still make important differences. A 2 beats an Ace already. I think that is covered. The way it is described so far, you would always try to use the lowest level quester to complete a quest, so you can save the higher level cards for tougher quests. Wouldn't that mean A, K, Q, J are "useless" normally, since they have no numerical value. It is like they are artifacts. I think if they have no value on the quest side, the game will be too easy. Maybe the quest shouldn't be available to be completed until it has at least one number, or to complete a quest with one of those cards, you need a team of three. How do we simulate the part where we break down a complicated quest into smaller chucks? Maybe a spade card can be used to split quests. What should be the rule about splitting quest? And what should happen to the rule of losing a lane when a quest has 5 cards already? I think we don't need to lose a lane when the quest gets complicated. The questers are still there they just need more help. I don't think there are enough cards to handle splitting quests. If you can split them, can you also combine them so the same team can effectively do two quests at once? How many quests should there be "on the board"? Maybe the rule is that when you place a spade card, you may move a quest card to another open quest slot. Then you take a card and the AI places a card. What do Heart cards do? When you place a heart card, you may take a completed quest card from that column. Diamond: When you place a diamond card, you may reveal any face down card in that column. (I think there is no need to have neutral cards.) I think the divider line helps to show the quest slots. Unless you play to have quest cards to always be shown sideway. I think incomplete quests always have a face down card, that card can be sideway and be used as a divider. If you scout and reveal that one, when you place the AI card the AI card must refill that slot. When you try a quest but you fail, where does the trying card go? I think it should add to the quest as part of its difficulty. And then you take a card, and the AI places a quest card. Is it possible to completely scout out a quest before attempting to complete it? It seems that the steps are: You place a card on your quest team and indicate that you want to complete a quest. Then the hidden cards of that quest are revealed one by one. If your quest team fail, the card you tried with goes to the quest side. Then you take a card somewhere, and the AI places a card. If the quest has no hidden card, the AI will place it there. Then does it mean it is never possible to completely scout out a quest? Wouldn't you just scout the draw deck? Then when the AI takes that card and place it face down, you already know what it is. I think it is too hard remember that card. Could the rule just be that the AI will take the card on the top of the draw deck and place it for a quest, without flipping the card? Can a player play a diamond, use the effect, then take the diamond card back? If there is allowed it makes a boring role for that player. But the result is that the AI won't get any face down card. We need play test for that, but I don't want to add a rule just to prevent the players from playing it in a boring way. I think the disadvantage of doing that outweighs the benefit because when you take the diamond quester back, you haven't made progress by adding a card to do the quest, when the quest is getting harder. That tactic doesn't work because you get a new AI card for each player. Unless all players are doing the same, there will be a face down AI card. The tactic wasn't for every player to do it, but to assign a player as the scout. And the next player be the finisher. But in that arrangement, only the finisher player will get new cards, the scout player will be playing and taking the same move over and over. I don't think that tactic would have much effect. When you place a diamond and reveal a quest card, can you then decide not to finish the quest? I think there shouldn't be so much penalty in trying but fail. When you fail, there is already a penalty that the quest is getting harder, and you need to reassign questers. There are five frontlines, the first to control three fronts wins. Play 1 card from hand then draw 1 card. When you already have 3 fighters, you play a fourth card to attack, and place it facedown side way on the losing side. After playing a card, if a group has too many cards you must remove a card you control from that group. You must play a card during your turn, even if doing so will make your group weaker. The card you remove cannot be the same card that you have just played. The card you remove can* be the card you have just played. You may play the card into any slot that is neutral or in your control. You may remove a card from any slot that is neutral of in your control. Basic Rule: When you attack, the defender may choose to review the neutral card and use that as their fourth card. When you start an attack, the fourth card can be one of the three cards for the attacking group. Advanced Rule: Suits: You may play a heart card to an occupied zone, then take a card from that zone. Advanced Rule: Diamond: When you place a diamond card, you may look at any faced down card (You may normally look at your own faced down cards.). Can the diamond ability not be a peek but a reveal. It is hard to remember what it is. There is an advantage when you scout out a neutral place. Then you don't want the enemy see it. If both sides agree they can always just reveal a card and make that card public knowledge. The problem is that when there are too many cards facing up, the game area looks confusing. Advanced Rule: Suit: Club: When you use a club card as your attack card, the attack is an ambush and only the numerical strength of the cards are used to determine the victor of the battle. A, K, Q, J have no numerical value in this case. Advanced Rule: Suits: Spade: You can play a spade card at an occupied slot that is not already full, then take the occupier card. By doing this you regain control of that airfield. Advanced Rule: When you play a card, you may always choose to play it face up or down. To use a suit ability, you just need to show it to confirm the suit, then you can still play it face down. Support Competitive Team play: In a 2 vs 2 game, each player has their own hands. The players are only free to discuss openly. So if you strategize with your teammate, your enemies will hear that too. Is there a cooperative mode to this game? Cooperative Mode: The players play against a dumb AI to clear all fronts. At the end of a player's turn, the player draws a card from the deck and place it face down for the AI enemy. to a zone that has the fewest AI cards. AI mode difference: Unlike a player, the AI can have more than 3 cards at their airfield. When the AI tries to place a sixth card, the players automatically lose that column and the sixth card is placed face down to occupy that column. Interesting. The coop/solo mode. AI Mode: If the AI tries to draw a card but the draw deck is empty, the players lose. Could this game be fun? We played this. It was a good game. Quest: Clear the Programmer's conviction of the Research station leader. He claims that he was framed. Lok for the Motive, Means and Opportunity. The suspects are the eight members of the research team: Leader, Doctor, Mechanic, Cook, Biologist, Electrician, Glacialist, Programmer.
    The Biologist said the Cook spent all his money on the expedition and wanted his money back, but the leader declined. The doctor is married to the Mechanic but seems to have an affiar with the Leader (?). The Doctor didn't want the leader to tell the Mechanic becahse she thinks that the Mechanic is short-tempered and unpredictable. The Doctor might have a murder motive to hide the affair. The mechanic is married to the doctor. The mechanic might have a motive of the murder out of anger about the affair. He has a motive for the inheritance.
    There is a change to the dosage at about 9:09pm. It seems that the Programmer might be an addict and hide a syringe, but did not commit the murder. Do we know the programmer's birthday? In any case it can't be 1803. That question is just to see an honest No repsonse. This letter is addressed to the Glacialist. From his grandma how has the same last name as the victim leader about inheritance. The gum used to cover the camera had an ingredient that the Programmer would be allegic to.

Timeline

0904: An argument and fight between the leader and the programmer. 0905: Leader murdered. 9pm: Biologist: 9pm At bunker to sleep. The programmer seemed to be asleep. 9:09pm Change of dosage.

Charter 28 v4

Freedom Plaza

The purpose of this quest is to define the focus of Chapter 28 @Freedom, aka the Freedom Plaza. My overall vision is to establish Freedom Plaza as a main gateway from the outside world to our guild without Roleplaying to maintain the highest clarity. ~20220714

Version Up (20220714)

With @Concept changing to @Dungeon as a training ground, many items, most news events, previously logged there were recategorized to @Freedom. @Freedom decides to take charge of presenting those news events and take the unique role in the guild as a news hub. As such, housekeeping quests are now at odds with that focus. Those quests are up for adoption by @Guild or @Board, or @Treasure.

Objectives

⭐ Create a section for world events: News Hour, Freedom Watch
⭐ Create a philosophy/metric section, link to Freedom House Index
⭐ Maintain a ch28 quest list

Mice and Mystics is a super cute-looking game that Sasha suggested. She made a wish that we could play it together and have a rewarding experience. You are invited to play this game with us. ~ 20220714 LRRH: However, I heard that this game is very hard and we will probably play it very slowly as we will be discussing and most likely applying all kinds of new rules. So if you are looking for a game that will be played faithfully to its rules, this is probably not the group.

Step by Step Guide

Chapter 1

Preparation

Preparation Step

We put this step in the beginning because it can be done before players gather at the table.

Game Clock

Set the game clock ("Story Control Board") with the hourglass token on Page 1 and "The End" token on Page 6. When the enemy gets a piece of cheese during the game, place that cheese on the clock to represent 10 minutes have passed. When the clock is full, clear the cheese and advance the hourglass. The heroes lose if the hourglass reaches "The End".

Encounter Deck

Take the nine Standard Encounter cards from the Encounter Deck. Shuffle and place them as a deck faced down on the Story Control Board.

Search Deck

Gather the heroes character cards. From the Search Deck, get the Starting Equipment for each hero. Give each hero their Starting Equipment. Shuffle the remaining deck and place it face down on the Story Control Board.

Chapter 1

Read Prologue (page 1-2)

TLDR

Prince Collin and friends were in prison for conspiring against Evil Queen Vanestra. To avoid certain execution, they stole some of Vanestra's magic and transformed themselves (along with a cellmate Filch) into mice.

Chapter 1 Tile 6

The Sewer


⚔️
The heroes fought the Rat Warriors in the Guard Room and then went down to the Sewer, falling into the running water. They must defeat the minions then exit to the North.
⭐ Use Tile 6: The Sewer Which is the flip side of the Tile 5: Guard Room
⭐ Place the heroes at the hook/turnover symbol. The heroes will start in the water.
⭐ Draw an Encounter Card.
⭐ Draw Initiatives
Movement in Water

Manual: Page 10


💦 Water does not affect minions in any way.
💦 If a mouse moves into water space, its movement ends.
💦 Mice CANNOT move aginst the water current.
💦 Mice CANNOT use free action in water.
💦 The water current carries each mouse one space along the flow at the end of its turn.
💦 A mouse is CAPTURED if the water current carries it off the tile
💦 To get out of water, spend the entire move and roll one die for Crit (D2). On success, the mouse is out of the water on adjacent land space. On failure, the mouse does not move.

Special Search

In Water Spaces: Fishhook and Thread
The firsthook and thread allows mice to get to high places quickly. This item is required if the mice wants to return to the Guard Room from the Sewer. Party items such as this are not saved at the end of a chapter.

Special Rule

Leaving the Sewer
All mice must be on the same side of the water to leave the sewer

Chapter One - Flight to Barksburg

🧀 STEP 3: Choose four mice, get one ability card each

Details

Lily cannot be chosen because she is not in the story yet. For each chosen mouse, inaddition to their starting equipment, choose one ability from the Ability Deck. Note 1: Most of the abilities are tied to specific class(es). Note 2: Cheeses are the cost of using abilities. The heroes can randomly get cheese when they roll dice.
In our group, we decided that after casting the transformation spell that Maginos could not cast without borrowing Vanestra's power, it would make sense if Maginos is out-of-mana. Therefore we have him be the odd one out.
📖 STEP 4: Read the Story and Victory Condition (Page 3)

TLDR

The heroes quickly retrieved their equipment in custody before the transformation spell ended, but Vanestra discovered their escape and transformed the prison guards into Rat Warriors to chase them.

Victory Condition

Clear Tile 1 of all enemies and move all mice to the Tree Hole at Tile 1 within 5 game hours.
🗺️ STEP 5: Get Tile 5 and place minis
Place the four heroes and three Rat Warriors as shown. This tile has these aspects*:

What a shiny helmet

Any hero searching at the helmet may choose to get the card "Tinkerer's Treasure" from the deck instead. Note 1: That card allows a Tinkerer Hero (Nez) to get any armor piece from the Search Deck when they search.

Can't Avoid Fighting

The heroes cannot escape down the sewer unless the tile is clear of Rat Warriors.

More Guards Are Coming

Spawn two more Rat Warriors on this tile every game hour. Note: The two Rat Warriors we placed outside the two doorway represent more guards are coming. Going through those doorways is not part of this chapter.
Aspect is a term from FATE-CORE. I think it simplifies the explanation.
STEP 6: Draw Initiatives

Turn Order

From the Initiatives Deck, get the card for the four heroes and the single Rat Warriors card. Shuffle these five cards and place them from slot 1 down . This represents the turn order of the minis. The Rat Warriors will act one by one during their turn. Note 1: The Rat Warriors initiative card has their battle powers and special ability: They move up in intiative after taking their turn!
⚔️ STEP 7: Defeat the Rat Warriors
In this step, the characters will take their turn according to the turn order. The character may move then act, or act then move.

Hero Move

Move Value + D3
Roll one die and add the number at the corner to the Move Value of the hero to get the number of spaces the hero may move this turn. The icon on the dice is irrelevant for movement.
Each die has two 1's, two 2's, and two 3's. A character's movement is their Move Value plus D3.
Note 1: Each space can fit four small minis and one large mini. Note 2: When a hero moves into a space that has an enemy, the hero's movement ends. Note 3: When a hero's space has an enemy, the hero can't start moving unless there are more heroes than enemies on that space.

Hero Action

Scurry
Scurry allows the hero to take another movement as their action. The two movements use separate die rolls.

Hero Action

Battle (Melee)
???

Rat Warrior Move, Attack

Move: D3 | Attack: 2 dice

Who Controls the Rat Warriors?

The player with a hero lowest on the turn order control the movement of the Rat Warriors. However, each Rat Warrior must move to a hero closes to it. If there is a tie between two heroes, the Rat Warrior will attack the hero higher on the turn order. After moving as need toward its target hero, the Rat Warrior will attack if its target hero is in an adjacent or same space.

Attacking a Hero

Roll two dice for the Rat Warrior (since its Battle Value is 2), and count the swords. Roll the number of dice equal to the Defense value of the hero (plus any bonus from armor), and count the shields. Each shield cancels a sword of the Rat Warrior. The hero takes a wound for each sword not cancelled.
Each die has three swords and two shields.

Cheese 🧀

Rat Warrior rolling cheese has no effect. But if a hero rolls cheese while defending, the game clock advances 10 minutes once immediately, and the hero gets one cheese for each cheese they rolled.

Bow

The bow symbol rolled by a Rat Warrrior or a hero doesn't have any effect in this case.

Rumor has it that Mice & Mystics might arrive by tomorrow night. And with the recent extremely rapid changes to the board, there is now a quest about this game. Please check that out and update that also. 202207142259|🧀 Mice & Mystics

Sasha: Thank you! Little Red Riding Hood is the best! Sasha can't give enough kudos to Little Red Riding Hood. Sasha has signed up and added links to the quest.
Sasha: This feels like a potluck if you do something for the quest as you sign up.
Evelyn: Is Red playing?
LRRH: I think I am just there to raise people in case of TPK. I am in team Deus Ex Machina. I can't tell if Red actually wants to play or not. It says the game is 1-4 players and has 11 chapters. I already played Adventure Begins... 😅 Evelyn signed up Little Red Riding Hood in Team Deus Ex Machina. Evelyn has signed up and added some info about the game.
Zoey: Wasn't it part of Sasha's wish that Team Carrot Cake will play it? Then she had already signed us up? XD Zoey signed up and added more links, with link to a how to play video.
Sasha: I'm not trying to force anyone to do anything.
Casey: So how does it work? It says there are 4 players but even Team Carrot Cake has six. We can figure it out. Or you could play GM or the enemies. Last time Evelyn and P4 played officially as one character and took turns to take their turn. I could hardly do anything against the beholder. 😅 Hmm... do I want to GM again? There is a tinkerer mouse. Okay I'm sold. Casey signed up and added a link.
P4: Is there a character like me? There is the rogue who is fast. 💟 P4 signed up as Filch and added the intended characters of the others.
Evelyn: That makes Tanya our leader Collin. 🤗
Sasha: @Tanya come help save your kingdom from the Evil Queen please. ... Tanya has signed up, added a short description to the story, and set a team name.
Tanya: I set a team name so if others want to play they might form a second team. Team Cheese Cakes! XD Let's change all the bullets into cheese! Sasha changed the bullets into cheese.
Black: I am kind of interested in playing, but I don't feel like I can ask others to play unless I know the game. But if I had played it, it won't be surprising.
Sasha: I suppose after we played it we could GM it for you. Then I look foward to your team playing it. 👍 Sasha signed up Black in team "Wish someone could GM" Black adds the credit category. Black thanks the team for trying the game.

Encounter

I was referred to this book while discussing at Twitter. It might be related to Stewardism, so we should examine and compare the concepts.
⭐ Following that, there was another link to the Tweeter's Blog.
⭐ More follow up: Sacred Economy

Principles (and comparisons)

See Chapter 3 - Interbeing
1 That my being partakes of your being and that of all beings. This goes beyond interdependency—our very existence is relational. That, therefore, what we do to another, we do to ourselves. This is not a principle in Arcacianism. Arcacianism cares about beings that are not part of ourselves.
2 That each of us has a unique and necessary gift to give the world. Arcacianism does not prescribe necessity nor uniqueness. It is about helping, not looking for something special about yourself (although you could very well find it while helping others.
3 That the purpose of life is to express our gifts. Arcacianism does not prescribe a purpose of life. Gifting is a choose. A person may choose to adopt that as their purpose of life.
4 That every act is significant and has an effect on the cosmos. Arcacianism does not prescribe such importance to every act. Arcacianism recognizes that small acts can build habits.
5 That we are fundamentally unseparate from each other, from all beings, and from the universe. Similar to principle 1, the truthfulness of this condition is irrelevant.
6 That every person we encounter and every experience we have mirrors something in ourselves. In Arcacianism, a person can find new paths and experience. It is more about accepting new encounters
7 That humanity is meant to join fully the tribe of all life on Earth, offering our uniquely human gifts toward the well-being and development of the whole. Similar to principle 3, there is no prescribed meaning in Arcacianism. You don't have to live a life aiming to offer something unique to others. You could just enjoy or share the good things you encountered.
8 That purpose, consciousness, and intelligence are innate properties of matter and the universe. Arcacianism prescribes neither of the three.

Chapter 32 - Miracle

⭐ When one is aligned with the purpose of service, acts that seem exceptionally courageous to others are a matter of course.
⭐ When one experiences the world as abundant, then acts of generosity are natural, since there is no doubt about continued supply.
⭐ When one sees other people as reflections of oneself, forgiveness becomes second nature, as one realizes “But for the grace of God, so go I.”
⭐ When one appreciates the order, beauty, mystery, and connectedness of the universe, a deep joy and cheerfulness arises that nothing can shake.
⭐ When one sees time as abundant and life as infinite, one develops superhuman patience.
⭐ When one lets go of the limitations of reductionism, objectivity, and determinism, technologies become possible that the science of separation cannot countenance.
⭐ When one lets go of the story of the discrete and separate self, amazing intuitive and perceptual capabilities emerge from lifelong latency.

Objectives

⭐ Survey the concept in this book and take notes. Is it its own ideology? Did we find something new?
⭐ Update Seed of Peace with link if we found something new or find a good reference to an existince concept.

Credit Schedule

⭐ EPIC I: Innovation/Ideology. You may get credits exploring ideas related to peacemaking.

202207152016|Game Arrived
July 15, 2022 Friday 8:16 PM
Mice & Mystics

Mice & Mystics Chapter 1 Go Go Go! Friday Night Game Session XD I'm following Tanya's format of using CHAT for RP and BUBBLE for non-RP. Starting now. For this playthrough, I want to use the official game rules first, until we decide that we have something better and we won't miss some surprising mechanics or plot that the designer planned. So who is reading the story? We take turn reading it? It is not that long. 202207142259|🧀 Mice & Mystics

Zoey: I can't believe that there IS an explanation to why the mice have armor! XD Are we RPing? After reading the prologue and start of chapter one, I have no idea how to RP. Let's just talk normal for now and play the game. To summarize, we were planning to revoke against Vanestra the evil queen. We were caught and thrown into a dungeon. To escape, we permanently transformed ourselves into mice, but Vanestra found that out also and transformed some guards into mice to chase us. Our immediate objective for Chapter One is to escape to the courtyard before time runs out. We will need to defeat all enemies at the last tile and reach the exit space before time runs out. It says Lily the Archer is not in Chapter One! XD 😅 I guess I'll GM this time! XD We still have one extra. I'll sit out and co-GM. But you are Collin, if you don't play, wouldn't that make the game really hard? I think that makes the first Chapter a good chapter to sit out. I guess.
Zoey: (GM) So I will use the CHAT to talk about game. We are about to start Chapter 1. The players we have are Sasha (Maginos), Evelyn (Tilda), Casey (Nez), and P4 (Filch). I have an idea. I should sit out as Maginos. He was the mage who had just transformed everyone into mice, which was supposed to be a huge feat. He should be out of mana. Tanya receives That does make a lot of sense. Then, I play Collin? 🤔 I think P4 should play Collin. You should play Filch. From the story, you are more like Filch. It might be easier to RP. I don't feel strongly either way. If I play Collin could we swap stats and class? That's way too confusing. I'll play Collin. Let's try first. If it doesn't work, we can change it next time.
Zoey: (GM) Players, after choosing your mouse, you may look at all the ability cards and choose one. Please consider the abilities your mouse already has when you choose. Does it mean that Tilda as a healer can't heal anyone without getting First Aid as an ability? 😅 Correct. Evelyn (Tilda) chooses First Aid as her ability. Some of the abilities are tied to a class, let's separate them. There are actual Healer class abilities. May I change my choice? Yes you may, until everyone is ready. Evelyn (Tilda) changes her ability to Cure. P4 (Filch) chooses Dodge as her ability. Casey (Nez} chooses Protect as her ability. Sasha (Collin) chooses Give Order as her ability.
Zoey: (GM) Now I shuffle the Encounters deck and place it on the story control board. As I do so, I notice that the encounter cards have two types. Some have a black E on the back, the others have a red E. We will find out what they foretell.
Zoey: (GM) Next I set up tiles 2, 4, 5 as shown on the manual. The manual didn't show the tile numbers. I think it would be quicker if they did.
Zoey: (GM) The mice will start on Tile 5: The Guard Room. There I also place 3 rat warriors. The rules on page 14 says when placing small melee minions, they should be spread out as much as possible. Therefore, in this case there is only one way to place them: One on each spawn point.
Zoey: Helmet is special if searched by a tinkerer. And this tile will only spawn more rat warriors (2 each) time when the story timer advances. I think this game would play better with a GM, because the GM can deal out the tiles one by one and hide the details about the rules.
Zoey: (GM) As GM, right after the part Maginos said, "Quick, to the Sewer", I would present the first tile (The Guard Room) with the minis already set up. I think that would be quite dramatic. 😊 I have an idea, why don't we write a step by step script for a GM to present the game? Right now the Story book doesn't do so because it assumes the reader already read the rules. It doesn't even have hints that the player should be doing something standard.
Zoey: (GM) Take the one Rat Warriors initiative card and shuffle it with that of the four selected heroes. Then reveal them on the initiative tracker starting from the top. The order is Rat Warriors > Nez > Collin > Filch > Tilda.
Zoey: (GM) Since Collin is not first, his Born to Lead ability gives him one cheese.
Zoey: (GM) The rats go first. For each rat, roll one die for movement and move the rat toward the closest hero. Then attack anyone within its melee range. In our case the bottom rat willl attack Nez because he is higher on the scale.
LRRH: The gaming session ended because it was late. To be continued...

Guide

What is a Post?

202207160804|PIN 202207160804

At the Blogger at Magic Bakery, a Post is dashboard layout to display contents stored in an archive. This is not the typical way Blogger sites work, but we are mimicking the intended organization when the site is upgrade to use databases.

What is a Dashboard?

⭐ A dashboard is something that each user may create to view contents of the archive.

What Should be a Post?

⭐ Chapters
⭐ For now, also Calendars

How do I reference something in the archive?

⭐ Each data object in the archive has a unique ID and labels.
⭐ The tag [jq] can reference the data.
⭐ To reference a specific object, such as this guide: [jq]#P202207160804</jq>
⭐ To reference all objects with a label such as all "guide" objects: [jq][data-guide]</jq>
⭐ To reference all objects with multiple labels: [jq][data-quest][data-ch18]</jq>
⭐ To reference all objects with either label: [jq][data-book],[data-charter]</jq>


202207160808|What is a Post?
July 16, 2022 Saturday 8:08 AM
Help Desk

At the help desk, StarTree is supposed to explain how the Blogger site works. The first question is "What is a Post?" So. 202207160804|What is a Post?

Ivy: For blogger sites in general, there are two main ways to display content: Post and Page. A Post is the default way blogger gives us to post content. A Post shows a timestamp, it is automatically listed on the front page and calendar control, and it allows labels. A Page is does not have a timestamp and is not automatically created. The admin would need to create a link to link to a Page. Typically this is done at the top navigation bar or at the side bar.
Ivy: For OUR blogger site, we use Post and Page quite differently. So what I will talk about below is more like a proposal.
Ivy: I propose that we separate the data and the layout by using Post as a dashboard layout, and Page as data archive. I think this will make it easier when we migrate to a website that has a database.
Ivy: In Magic Bakery terminology, only Chapters and perhaps Calendars should be a Post. Everything else should be in a Page.
Zoey: I have a question about this arrangement. If we organize it like this, does it mean there can only be one archive? Do we end up having a centralized system?
Ivy: My answer is we want to have a decentralized system, but first we need to know how to make at least one system with database. In a decentralized and cross-checking system, which is the way Quest Society data should be maintained, each data center is making copies of the data of another center, but each center by itself can be considered a centralized node.
Tanya: What is the plan to handle object ID's? Will they still be unique across all nodes?
Ivy: That will be handled the same way as URL. Each node has its own unique domain ID. The full unique ID of an object would have the domain path.
Ivy: So even though we know that the final Quest System would be decentralized, I propose that our current focus to be on a single centralized system. We are trying to make one node first, then we will make it work with other nodes in an alliance.
Tanya: I see. I think this overall plan should be somewhere.
StarTree: StarTree will add to 202207142015|🎪 Quest Board!
Evelyn: If a post should only be a dashboard, does it mean there should only be about 30 posts right now?
Ivy: Correct. Of the 99 posts now, most of them should have its content sent to an archive.
Evelyn: The archive is becoming slow as it gets bigger. Is there something we can do about it?
Ivy: We could split it into multiple archives based on the data date. But that mechanism is only for Blogger. When we migrade to a database, that would be implied. For now I suggest just using VSC or other editor to edit it locally. Then just copy and paste to the archive.
Evelyn: But if I am stitching data back to the archive, I would need to keep the Archive open for a long time, then no one can edit anything.
Ivy: If you just want to test the HTML before adding it to the Archive, you could test it at a temporary post first. Then when you are done, you could copy that to the Archive. Then if something breaks in your code, it won't break the entire site.
Evelyn: Okay. I think I can do that. Evelyn thanks all for the guide.

This node was the game version of the Bias node, but maybe the two nodes should be merged. Change the layout format to the new style. No longer need the three column style.

202207161150|Mode Change
July 16, 2022 Saturday 11:50 AM
Arx Dungeon

I am changing the mode for Arx Dungeon because, of the 100+ items currently tagged for @Dungeon, most of them should be in @Arena. So I have just set all of them to be Arena. If you spot a fallacy, please tag it for @Dungeon. Other than that, @Dungeon will focus on upgrading the interface on weeks where no 202207161025|fallacy is identified.

Tanya: Please support @Arena in clearing all those quests.
Zoey: Hmm... And @Arena should also be a quest. So we should also define that as a quest.
Tanya: I think we need to do that, and define profiles of the contestants as ID'ed objects. Right now they merely have an ID, but they are not objects in the archive.
Evelyn: How many different objects do we need to make?
Tanya: A philosophy can have multiple champions. So each philosophy should be an object, and each champion should be an object. After that, each challenge, contest, and combat should be an object.
Sasha: I don't think we should spend a lot of time juggling data. Otherwise we would be spending time making new bins instead of adding substance to the bins.
Tanya: Then let's try continue in the new way when we add something.
Evelyn: I think we should define @Arena as a quest, otherwise it won't show up on the quest list.
Tanya: @StarTree, could you define @Arena as a quest object?
StarTree: It is now defined! 202207161224|🏛️ Philosophy Arena
Tanya: Next let's define an ideology object. Since StarTree is here, let's define Veganism. Roger! 202207161233|🥦 Veganism
Tanya: Now add StarTree as a Champion object. P02207110924|🏅 Veganism
Tanya: Next, add flex containers to list all philosophy and champion objects in arena quest. Done! This looks kind of fun when you don't need to do it yourself. 😅 StarTree is happy for helping people! StarTree, I think the object picture of the champion should be you. Hai!
Tanya: Since there was already an ID, the object should use the same ID. And on the category title, instead of "Champion", please say "Veganism". And add back the four hearts. Roger! And make the picture 100 px please. StarTree is cute! Wee~~!
Tanya: Now at the original arena page, add jq tag for Champions and remove the original StarTree.
Sasha: Hold on. If you do that, the ranking order won't be preserved.
Tanya: I think we shouldn't manually set the ranking order. The ranking order should be automatically done with javascript. StarTree please add a todo item for Arena to implementing ranking order code. I think we should also add the other todo items. StarTree please add those with priority above the ranking code. Done!
Tanya: Since we will be making the other champion profiles similarly, let's complete StarTree's profile first. What should go in StarTree's profile?
Ledia: I think that will be her moves. But that is irrelevant until we fight.
Zoey: Actually what is the intended difference between Philosophy and Champion?
Tanya: Philosophy is non-RP. So if I want to talk about it on discussion, I could just link to that without the gamification.
Zoey: Then should StarTree's champion profile have a link to Veganism? Yes it should.
Tanya: StarTree, please add Veganism as something you are a champion of. Can a champion be a champion of multiple philosophies? The way we define it now, no. Since each Champion profile has hit points, and hits points are tied to a specific philosophy. But I think the "Champion of" section can have multiple items.
Ledia: StarTree could you replace the picture for Veganism? And in Veganism, I think there shouldn't be StarTree's photo.
Evelyn: Shouldn't there be a "Championed by" section in Veganism?
Zoey: I agree with Evelyn. But I think Tanya will object.
Tanya: I prefer having something that is completely factual. By that I mean everything on Veganism should be about Veganism itself. So I agree with Ledia.
Zoey: That has to do with how Tanya intends to use it. We had many debates about that regarding Albatross. But, Tanya, if you are okay with Logical Fallacy Dungeon to have gaming elements in it, why is it not okay for Philosophy objects to have gaming elements also?
Tanya: I think the audience that would read the philosophy object would be the more serious type. If you keep one to be more serious, then you could choose to use the Champion link or the Philosophy link. On the Philosophy object I plan to link to more URL and articles outside Magic Bakery.
Zoey: Okay. I understand. That might be a good way to separate RP and non-RP content. Ivy's request to create reference links for profiles is complete.
Ivy: Well I marked that done because you bit the bullet and made the actual object. So we don't need the reference link anymore. Congratulations. Ivy thanks all for the upgrade. Could we not use that idiom? It has a very graphical and unpleasant origin. 😖 Apologies.
Ledia: We're just about done with the garnish. Let's add the definition from Wiki: "Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals." Ledia and StarTree got EXP for adding a definition of Veganism.
Ledia: I think we should also add links to the Vegan Society and wikipedia. Now that looks minimally complete.
Evelyn: Should there be a collection of philosophies for people to browse to another philosophy node on our site? I would say yes. If an object belongs to a collection, having a link back to its collection should be required. StarTree please make a Collection object for Philosophies, and create another object that is a Collection of Collections. Tanya receives

    If you eat meat to survive, you are not necessarily practicing non-veganism. Non-veganism means that given the choice, you would rather exploit animals for yourself than just let them be happy. https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1555232363189137410 This is a definition from Animal Ethics website https://www.animal-ethics.org/veganism/ Veganism is a moral position that opposes exploiting and otherwise harming nonhuman animals. This includes what we do directly, such as hunting or fishing. It also includes what we support as consumers, which affects many more animals. Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment.

Last week I sketched 202207092054|Wonder Woman but didn't get any feedback. Maybe they don't really care about it. Does anyone want me to draw something else?

Tanya: 3B could you draw Melody? Melody doesn't have an avatar. Actually I drew her already. Let me make the avatar. ... Yellow doesn't look very good does it? I made it black and white.
Sasha: That's isn't really drawing anything. If you just want to look up pictures, even I can do that. I didn't know it existed.
Evelyn: What about Skyle? She has a picture also. I know this is not a drawing request but I want to see their avatars also. 🙏 Let me find it. Uploaded. Thank you! It bothered me that we heard her singing by she didn't have an avatar. 😊
Sasha: Could you find Albatross too? I mean... that's the last one without an avatar on the Roster... I though that was supposed to be a LEGO model. Let's say if the person that be got around building a LEGO model, we would gladly replace the avatar with a picture. Ok. 😅
3B: I uploaded a flag... because I haven't found the picture yet.
LRRH: It better be somewhere. I found a 48x48 px sprite. CUTE !!!! 😍 That is SO old school. I thought there is also a drawing. I don't see it. But I found an energy bar. {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/Albatross%20-%20E12.png?raw=true"}
Sasha: I have an idea. Why don't we replace all the emoji we use with sprites? Because they don't look the same on different browsers. It is a lot easier to draw sprites that look complete.
3B: I think unless everything is drawn with sprites, the style would clash. If you say so.
Sasha: Then could you draw Chibi characters for @Arena? We are gearing up toward having fights between philosophy girls.
3B: I think I can. Who will fight first?
LRRH: I think Capitalism and Socialism should fight first. They fight all the time at Twitter, there is a lot of material.
Tanya: We don't yet have a champion for Socialism.
3B: I could just add one if you want. Who? Naomi of Reclamation Corp.Chapter 10 page 21. That is a really nice picture. Please add her. A champion for Socialism is found.
Tanya: I think now we met the minimum requirement to start having a fight. I still don't know what the rules should be. Are we trying to compare military strengths? What is a fight? I thought a fight is a debate presented as a duel. But the content of the debate allows the champion to use military force. For example, if the debate topic is territorial dispute, Imperialism could say they will take over the territory by force, and the opponent can't just say, "If you do that the other nations will attack you" because the assumption is that the two philosophies are on a duel arena--There are no other forces. I would take that explanation, but I think it should be pinned. It is hard to remember such details.
Tanya: StarTree, could you make a collection node of games? Done! And a game 202207162110|"Philosophy Duel" Tanya added the explanation and updated @Arena.
Sylvia: ** Plays Fort Arsenal **

Plan

Duel: Capitalism vs Socialism. This duel should be first because there is a lot of debate at Twitter.

Design

Philosophical Duel is a debate presented as a a duel. Depending on what arguments are allowed in the debate, the content might include the use of military forces. For example, if the debate topic is territorial dispute, Imperialism could cite its policy to take over the territory by force, if the opponent reply "The other nations will protect me" or "the nations will counter attack you,", then the response would be an ineffective defense because there are no other nations to help in the context of a duel.

202207171241|Demo Case #2
July 17, 2022 Sunday 12:41 PM
Magic Bakery

Hey hey hey! For this week let's try the detective case Demo No2! Too much words XD 202207162305|Consulting Detective

Evelyn: I suppose this can count as daily reading. 😅 XD
Tanya: In summary, a notorious thief and master of disguise Gilly Niles has been seen casing the area around Trafalgar Square. We are to figure out what she is up to and stop her plan. Material availble are a directoy, map, informants and newspaper.
Sasha: Do we just read everything at the leads? If we want to pretend that we are actually doing this, there would be a cost for each lead we choose to follow.
P4: Where is Trafalgar Square? It is not a number place but south of National Gallery 24 WC. 💟
Casey: If she has been casing around there, I suppose what she wants to steal is somewhere nearby.
Sasha: The newspaper says someone probably has a diamond at Grand Hotel 22 WC. I think that is probably the target. There is also a painting at the National Gallery, but it has been there since September 1st. So I think the target is the diamond.
Casey: Since she is a master of disguise, potentially she would pretend to tbe the anonymous buyer of the diamond and just take it without paying.
Tanya: We need to pick a location for the first lead. Do we agree that we will go to Grand Hotel? I want to visit the Unicorn 19 WC. I want to know what it is. Let's visit there after solving it. 😊 💟 The Unicorn is probably a pub, you can't get in XD Oh 😖 I nuke Zoey for using a mimic. There was no age limit for drink back in 1880. I wasn't talking about the age limit, I was talking about Evelyn XD But you all went to a tavern back in Adventurer Begins. That was because that was the only choice. There was no inn that wasn't also a tavern and we needed a place to lodge. XD Zoey, are you counter attacking Sasha? No, I'll just brush it off. I don't want to KO Sasha. XD Zoey you may draw a Level 3 treasure card. Zoey obtained a Gold Ring for 3000 points. 202207161025|🎪 Log Fall Dungeon Evelyn casts Protect. Just in case something happens. 😅
Black: Could we wait for Amelia? She also wants to play in about an hour. Let's wait so we can play together. 🤗
🕰️ [2:13 PM] 🕰️
While we are waiting... will we finish playing Mice & Mystics? Wasn't it too slow? Not particularly, since it was our first time playing it. I thought if it is too slow, we could change the rules. And I want to know the rest of the story. Someone still has faith in the game 😂 The last thing I remembered was the rat was attacking us, but we didn't know how attack works. I think the game manual is long and didn't do a good job summarizing the actions. I think a step-by-step guide would help. Let's make an outline of the steps.

202207171841|202207171841
Mice & Mystics
First Fight
202207152016|◀ 202207142259|▶ July 17, 2022 Sunday 6:41 PM
Guard Room

The newly transformed heroes found themselves being chased by guards transformed into rat warriors in King Andon's castle dungeon. To escape, they must escape down the sewer through paths yet unknown to them to where they could get a breather. This is a continuation of Team Cheese Cake's play through of Mice & Mystics. This post follows Tanya's RP convention: CHAT for RP (plus GM Narration) and BUBBLE for non-RP.

The initiative order since last game is Rat Warriors > Nez > Collin > Filch > Tilda.
Cardinal: In the Guard Room with the heroes are three Rat Warriors. Maginos, who was instrumental in giving the heroes a slim chance of escape, is out-of-mana. He could not fight but is well awake and aware of the situation.
Cardinal: Meanwhile, one Rat Warrior had caught up to the heroes and swung its sword at Nez, the Tinkerer Warrior. Cardinal: (Rat Warrior) ⚔️⚔️
Cardinal: The Rat Warrior swung its jagged knife as hard as he could toward the group, even if that left him wide open for counter attacks. @Casey, roll for your defense. (Nez the Tinkerer) My defense value is only 1, and I have no armor. Does this mean that I will get one wound no matter what? Seems like it. (Tilda the Healer) I'll heal you. 😖 Casey: (Nez) 🤍 🤷‍♀️ Nez takes two wounds from the heavy blow.
⚔️
Casey: Nez didn't finch. In fact he had had enough seeing Queen Vanestra's ruffians around the castle he had fought hard to defend as a former soldier. I think I am the strongest here, so I will just attack. Casey: (Nez) ⚔️⚔️⚔️🏹
Cardinal: Nez's long hammer hit the Rat Warriror and sent it flying to the end of the wall. The Rat Warrior is KO'ed. Casey: D3=2. My character moves kind of slowly so I will move directly toward the sewer.
Casey: Nez moves to the next Rat Warrior in front of the sewer, blocking the swing from it with his long hammer. (Tilda) Sorry, I got cheese when Nez was wounded. 😖 ** Gives Tilda one Cheese. ** Does cure actually heal wound? I think I read the card wrong and should in fact get First Aid as my ability. 😖 You may change it if you want. Thank you! 🙏 Evelyn's starting ability is now First Aid. Clarification about the rules: Only one of us need to be at the sewer space to flip the tile. The rule about all mice must reach the target only applies to the Tree Hole. Alright. I think my character is pretty strong also so I will fight a Rat. Sasha: (Collin) D3=3. I move to the same space as Nez and attack the Rat there. Sasha: (Collin) ⚔️🧀🧀 Cardinal: (Rat Warrior #2) 🤍
⚔️
Sasha: With its sword momentarily knocked aside by Nez, Collin the Young Princess lands a swift strike. It is just the way the Prince had trained with Nez. I give Nez one of my cheese as a free action.
Casey: Nez is pround of the Prince. He will do everything to help him defeat the Evil Queen. Great RP! XD P4: (Filch) D3=1. I want to get the special card for Nez. Do you want to try RP'ing that? Ok. Is it okay if Filch is a nice person? Filch's story says he has continued "inability to ingratiate himself to those who would provide shelter." What does that mean? It means he doesn't do anything nice to others even when they do something nice to hiim. 😟 If we want to keep the roleplay by the book, I suggest Sasha and P4 trade character. I see what you mean now. But I already took a turn. But that was just the first turn. Should we rewind and let P4 play Collin? I am okay if P4 wants to play Collin. I want to play Filch but I don't want to be mean. I hope Filch will change into a good person during the story. It says he is unable to be grateful, maybe he wants to be grateful. 😅 P4, how about you are playing the better self of Filch? You are the good voice in Filch tell him to do good, but Filch also has a selfish voice telling him to care for himself. For every decision that is kind, you will roll one die. If you win it works as you intended. If you lose, I decide what Filch will do instead, but you get one cheese. Cardinal receives Okay 💟 Wow, interesting. That's a FATE Cheese XD
P4: As soon as the fight started, Filch sneaked aside trying to steal something before leaving the guard room. But a voice tells him to be kind and get something to help the big tinkerer mouse who just got wounded. "Get that piece over there," the voice said, "it will help him make armor." P4: (Filch) D2=⭐. 😃
P4: Filch says to himself, "This is so nice, of course I'll take it." and takes the material he knew only the tinkerer could use. Filch obtained Tinkerer's Treasure. 🤗
Cardinal: The third Rat Warriror sees Filch searching through his stash of confiscated treasures and decides getting it back was more important than following the Queen's order to stop the prince from escaping. XD Filch is now closest to the last Rat Warrior. 😖
Evelyn: Although Nez was wounded, Tilda worries about Filch, who seems to be unaware that the third Rat Warrior was about to hit him. Evelyn: D3=2. I move the same space as Filch and search. Tilda became a looter! XD But there is nothing else to do 😅 I will think of the RP reason if I actually get a card, since searching only works half the time. We missed a rule. P4 still had to roll for search to get the Tinkerer's Treasure card. 😖 I'll let that slide since P4 did roll for something and got a star. Evelyn please roll for Search. Evelyn: D2=⭐. 😃 First draw of a Search Card is Magic Bakery History. This better be good! ** Draws a Search Card. ** Evelyn obtains the Scorching Wand. I can do ranged attack 🙏 Congratulations! What is the RP explanation that Tilda just took someone's stuff.
🔥
Evelyn: (Tilda) With rising resolve, Tilda quickly warped bandage around a twig to make a makeshift wand. "This shall do," Tilda said to herself and points the glowing tip of the wand at the last, approaching Rat Warrior. I use my free action to equip the wand. Dual wielding healer XD
⚔️
Cardinal: The Rat Warrior swings its jagged blade against the apparently distracted Filch. Cardinal: (Rat Warrior Attack) D2x2 = ⚔️⬜. P4: (Filch Defense) D3x2 = ➕➕.
P4: Filch deflects the swing with his tail dagger.. Casey: (Nez Move) D3=2. Casey: (Nez Attack) D2x4 = 🏹🏹🧀🧀
Casey: Nez took two steps toward the last Rat Warrior thinking he could finish him, but missed the swing. "Come On! Let's go" Nez said something to hide his embarrassment. Sasha: Should we keep looting or? It doesn't make a lot of sense if we keep looting. 😅 (Collin Attack) D2x3 = 🏹⚔️⚔️.
⚔️
Sasha: Collin steps in and KOs the last Rat Warrior. "We must hurry." P4 can make it to the sewer for sure, but if we do that we waste a chance to loot. What would Filch do? I think we should loot. Even if we end the round with no enemy, it would only add one cheese to the clock. It has only been 20 minutes in game time. I think Tilda walked too far from the sewer. If she was one space closer, we would be sure that the party can exit before the round ends. I am proposing let's all take maybe 20 minutes to loot. We can loot around the sewer entrance and Tilda will explore the round after next.
Cardinal: As the heroes gathered around the last KO'ed Rat Warrior, it was apparent that that Rat had a huge stash of equipment shrunk to the same size by Vanestra's magic spell. Perfect excuse XD I want to move to Nez's space, give him the Tinkerer's card and then search again. Roll one die to see if Filch is willing to share. P4: (Filch Kindness) D2=💟. P4: (Filch Search} D2=⭐ Isn't someone lucky today XD ** Draws a search card **
P4: Filch shoves the pack of material he knew to be invaluable to a tinker to Nez, then use both of his paws to pull out the a blade he spotted from the stash. Filch finds a Mystic Blade, which is usable by a warrior. Evelyn: (Tilda Search) D2=⬜. 😅
Evelyn: Tilda heals Nez by one wound. The time is now at 30 minutes. It is Nez's turn. I give Tilda two cheese, move as close to the sewer as I can and search. (Nez Movement) D3=2, (Nez Search) D2=⭐ Blank Check! XD
Casey: Not knowing what Filch shoved at him at first, Nez started walking toward the sewer. They he realized that what he was holding was... So. What do we want? I can get any armor or weapon. Maybe something for Filch? He got us two things already. He got the group one thing so far. The sword. Right. Sorry. 😖 I found something truely unique so I think I should get that for Nez. The Shifting Cloak, which allows the wearer to teleport to any normal space after blocking all hits from a minion attack. Why Nez? That looks like rogue gear. Nez is slow, so if he could teleport it would be awesome. You can't wear it. It is for Mystic or Scamp. How did I miss that?! XD So it ends up being something for Filch. 🤗
Casey: Nez's hope that maybe there was some good in Filch vanished as he was convinced that Filch handed him the cloak only because he knew he could not use it. Filch's kindness is being misunderstood. XD Sasha: (Collin Search) D2=⬜
Sasha: Collin reaches the sewer, It was very dark beneath. He wonder if he could find a torch. P4: I want to give Collin the sword then search for something. (Filch Share) D2=⭐. (Filch Search) D2=⭐. Super Lucky! XD ** Draws a search card ** Filch learns the trick Desperate Rescue. Are you going one more round of search? Yes. Evelyn: (Tilda Search) D2=⭐.
Evelyn: Tilda heals Nez to full health, and in the meantime, gathered the ingredients from her porch to create a Heal All scroll.. It is 20 minutes before the first surge. Casey: (Nez Search) D2=⭐.
Casey: Nez looked down the dark sewer, the foul smell, mixed with the smell of herb from Tilda's ingredient porch was just enough to make him feel ill. Nez rather rudely shoves the cloak back to Filch and threw up down the sewer. Nez takes one poison wound. I hope most of the search cards are good. Right? 😅 Sasha: (Collin Search) D2=⬜
Sasha: Collin fastens the sword Filch gave him as Filch puts on the cloak. P4: (Filch Search) D2=⭐. Filch obtains a Button Shield.
Evelyn: Tilda points her Scorching Wand down the sewer as a torch. In the dim light, they could see a ditch with flowing water right below. The water will break their fall, but the flowing water seems troublesome. "Maginos, which way should we go?
Tanya: "North. Through the kitchen." Maginos says. And the hero mice jump down to the sewer.

In this post I am trying to implement the changes Cardinal made to the Mice & Mystics RP last night at the raw html to the script maker. Although ultimately that should be at the Javascript.

Ivy: My plan is to upgrade the Viewer so that the viewer will read the tags inside a post and create a navigation header with correct links. Then in your post you don't need to worry about them, and those links don't need to be stored in the archive.
LRRH: I want the header to be chocolate dipped. I totally understand what you mean. XD Ivy updated the Quest Board Quest to prioritize chocolate dipped header. Wait what? XD
Tanya: Quest wording shouldn't be cryptic. It should be easy to understand so everyone with the ability can do it. Ivy updated the wording to "make the header portion brown." Red wasn't trolling XD
Ivy: I'm not working on that now. So feel free if you want to work on it. I see. Tanya thanks Ivy for explaining.

202207182013|◀
July 19, 2022 Tuesday 8:35 PM
Magic Detectives

There is a quest that will greatly affect Evelyn's life. So I want to get our attention to complete it ASAP. 😅?

Sasha: As you might notice, recently Evelyn had stopped importing the old post to Blogger, and the Great Detective Sasha determined that the reason was she didn't want to import twice if we are going to change the format as Ivy had suggested multiple times. I'm sorry! I'll start again tomorrow. 😖
Sasha: My point was you were right waiting. The blog needs to catch up so that you won't waste your effort. The long the blog isn't upgraded to the intended format, the more work there would be for Evelyn. So I say, Let's do it. Right now. Let define the new format, and write the code for it.
Sasha: So, this morning I made a post, or I should say, a node in the archive. Its ID is P202207191024. If you try to display that in Viewer or JQ that node, you will see that it has not format at the top and it is missing a frame around it.
Sasha: Now, if you look at the node at the Archive, you will see that the unformatted parts have tags: "node-category", "node-title", "node-img", "node-content". I took the liberty to define them because I think they are easy to change later if we want.
Sasha: What I understand is that when the Javascript code is told to read data from the node, if the content is tagged properly, the JS code should be able to construct the clickable title that we are familiar with.
Sasha: Does anyone understand what I said so far?
Tanya: Then depending on what is trying to display the content, the "Dashboard" can decide to show a clickable row, a small thumbnail, a big thumbnail, a game card, or a tarot sized card. Yes. But that is as far as I understand. What do we need to DO to make that happen?
Tanya: We need to edit the JS function that fetches the data from the Archive. @StarTree, what function is that?
StarTree: There are about a dozen! You can find them because they all call the function "Macro"! "Macro" is the function that reads "jq" tags get the data, then replace the "jq" tag with the actual data!
Evelyn: Does that mean we only need to change "Macro"? StarTree is not sure! Macro scans the specified section for tags, then calls "QueryAllReplace", which does the magic for each tag that Macro found!
Tanya: It looks like QueryAllNext is what we need to change. QueryAllNext doesn't call anything else made by us.
Evelyn: StarTree, why are there so much commented code in that function? Ivy tried to added an alias feature so that a node could be referred to by multiple names, but it didn't work. If Ivy couldn't make it work... 😅
Ivy: What I was trying to do was different and not as important as so I just left it alone. If you want to try something, I suggest you make a copy of QueryAllReplace and just specifically run that at the Test Area. Then you won't break the rest of the while testing. Understood. Tanya created QueryAllReplace2.
Sasha: How do we actually run this function by itself at Test Area? You could make a button and call it with fixed arguments. Wow, I feel like I asked something really basic! If you don't want the button itself to disappear, then comment out the part that removes the button. Then you don't need to refresh the page just to test again. It is spamming Sasha's charter XD
Tanya: Let's try making some changes instead of just pushing the button. Okay. Enough spamming.
Tanya: Let's confirm that we can alter the content of what it displays. Tanya confirmed how to set what is displayed. Good job, you are halfway there.
Sasha: Wait, I want to do something also, let's take turn making a change. Baker Street Irregulars style. Ok. 😊 Hmm...
Zoey: May I make the change first? I have an idea XD Yes you may. That is Cardinal Style Initiative. That's a lot of changes. 😅 I'm just adding the button back. Okay let's try it. It's not loading. OMG I broke the site XD It is the quotation marks. You can change them to single quotes. It's working! Zoey enabled the button code.
Sasha: It is clear that we need to replace the dummy "TITLE" and "CONTENT" with the actual content from the node. How do we read the tags? Google is where you could ask that kind of question. But I'll just show you this, then I think you can finish it. Ivy demonstrated how to read values in a tag.
Sasha: Now I take my turn. It's working! 😃 Sasha replaced the placeholder with actual values from the node.
Sasha: Now Evelyn can continue!
Tanya: We formatted the wrong thing. We made the format for a conversation post, but P202207191024 is a charter, so the button should not be plain text but with a thumbnail. But Evelyn is mostly going to import conversation posts. We need a way to know that the content is a conversation post... Actually, we need a way to tell if our code should be used at all. If we just add this code back to QueryAllNext, the rest of the archive can't display because none of them have the "node-content" tag. Then I shall take my turn and protect the rest of the archive. Evelyn receives
Evelyn: I'm trying to make it so that we don't alter the content unless we see "node-content". I am adding a test button so show what happens if we run QueryAllReplace2 on an old post. The old post doesn't display at all 😖 🏳️ Tanya's new test button caught the error. Ivy fixed the error.
Ivy: When "get" finds nothing, the result is not null. It is a zero length collection. Thank you.😖 Evelyn's IF statement can now distinguish the old type and new type.
Zoey: If you compare them side by side, it is clear that our function is missing the icon and the participants list. So I'll add the icon with a new tag "node-icon" for my turn. CUTE !! 😍 Thanks for using the pudding. Zoey brought back the icon. Next is the participants list...
Ivy: I think it is time to wrap up. If you want, you could add your changes back to QueryAllReplace, so Sasha's charter can at least display like a story post at the calendar. It's not working. The calendar doesn't call QueryAll Replace. Apparently the calendar does something different. It doesn't even have run Macro. And if you add Macro it won't do anything because Sasha's node doesn't have any jq tag. I see. We need to make what added as a function and let calendar call it by itself. And that is not working.
Ivy: The problem seems to be that the calendar doesn't fetch a node one by one. This means that your function would not work if the input argument is not just a single node but a list of nodes. What is the query string that calendar uses? It is "[date='20220719']"! Tanya added the test to Test Area and confirmed the issue.
Tanya: We need to loop through each top level object. Tanya created the looping version of "NodeFormatter". We could change the name later.
Evelyn: It is working! 😃 Impressive. 👍
🕰️ [12:00 AM] 🕰️
Sasha: And so Team Detectives made significant progress. What will be the next challenge they overcome? Evelyn thanks all for the improvement session.

🧭 Cardinal Virtues

⭐ Voluntary Commitment

Honorism views virtues as personal voluntary commitments. People who do not commit to practicing those virtues are considered neutral.
2022-11-13 @Twitter

You may commit yourself to helping others. But when you declare that "others have a responsibility to help", you cross a line where you no longer view those people as neutral. Your ideology becomes a control paradigm that attacks the neutral by branding them as irresponsible. 🐣

Grammarly Tone Rating: Informative

Q & A

Q: Why can honorism stop aggression when it claims that does not subscribe others to the same commitment? Natalie: When an aggressor subjects others to violence, the aggressor subscribes itself to an arena where opposition by force is okay. Honorism can then join that arena to intervene.
Q: What if the victim is at the brink of extinction? Can they force others to help them? Natalie: Honorism: Victims surviving by dishonorable means are less guilty than the aggressor creating the conflict. It is unjust to act against the victim without acting more against the aggressor.
Q: How does joining a conflict and opposing aggression make peace? If the victim concedes then the aggressor won't need to attack and no one dies. Natalie: Subjugation is seizing one's free life. Lack of opposition allows aggressors break peace.
Q: How does joining a conflict and opposing aggression make peace? If the victim concedes then the aggressor won't need to attack and no one dies. Natalie: Subjugation is seizing one's free life. Lack of opposition allows aggressors break peace.
Q: I am a bystander, but the aggressor threatens to harm me if anyone tries to stop it. Can I hold people against the aggressor accountable for the consequence affecting me if the aggressor goes berserk? Natalie: Holding helper (instead of the aggressor) accountable is anti-help, that is beyond being neutral (Neutral: I don't help, but if the aggressor goes berserk I blame the aggressor.) Anti-help is not neutral, it is a form of aggression.

A rewards inventory is a facility that stockpiles gift items as rewards for questing. If you want something that you can't readily get from the reward inventory, you could post a quest for it to be made. Your posting could specify whether you are providing the material. You can craft the requested rewards and submit them for credits. In cases where there is a risk of duplicates, you should reserve the quest and complete it in reasonable time. In general it is okay to submit extra quantities because someone else might want the same reward once they see that it is available. When you offer unrequested rewards, you get credits when someone claims them. If you have a used item, can you offer it as a reward? If someone wants to claim it, how many credits should you get since you didn't spend time making it? I think you would get the standard listing time, and delivery time if you would also deliver it. If people end up bidding on it, should get get a portion of what they spent bidding? I think the winning bid helps gauge how scarce the offer is. The more scarcity you help alleviate, the more credits you should get. Would that instead encourage people to hog resources to create scarcity so that they could earn more credits by offering the item on when someone would bid on it? Like diamonds. I think artificial scarcity might also happen just from rewarding people for offering the item. If a person could earn credit by re-offering it, a person has incentive to form a loop with fellow reofferers to get credits from doing nothing. When you offer an item for credits, you can't guarantee that your loop buddy would claim it. A legitimate keeper might claim it, then the loop is broken. The cheating behavior is on public record. A detective could see the fraud. Instead of relying on detectives to detect frauds, can we change the rules so that legal moves would not contribute to a fraud? I don't think you need a loop buddy for the "fraud"/undersirable milling to happen. A miller just claims an item and reoffer it. Doing that earns them listing credits. But the miller spent time listing it. Is this a worthwhile activity? Wouldn't the miller have better use of the time than just claiming an item and re-releasing it? The miller is not getting credits for their time spent shopping. But the miller is not really shopping. They could just randomly claim anything since they are free for them to get. But if a legitimate claimer claims it, they have to yield/deliver it. I think Ivy is saying that the miller doesn't actually earn anything because the standard credit is tuned to match what people spend for that task. But the miller would get gold credits for relisting when there is no demand for their effort. What if the rule is that items that tend to be relisted over and over become a library item? You don't get credits for simply returning an item or sending it to the next person. I think that is closer to the correct answer, but is there a better explanation of why returning a borrowed item is not worth any credits? It would seem it should worth community credits. THe original context is that the claimant could have chosen to keep the item. But they chose to release and share it. Why shouldn't they get credits? If the principles are wrong, it is possible to have a situation where the principles say you should get credits, but he result is that the system would break. If that happens, it is a proof by contradiction that the principle is wrong. Or another principle is missing. What do people think about the context of returning a borrowed library item? Should it worth credits for the effort to return a library item? If the item has a hold on it and you don't return it by the due date, I think your credits would get deducted. So maybe when you borrow, you should pay a small amount of credits as deposit. When you return it in time you get your deposit back. I want to move away from the library analogy if possible, because in Gaia distribution, you are supposed to be able to just opt out. Opting out means you can checkout a resource and not return it. I don't think you need to move away from the library view. Once you have paid the deposit, it applies everytime you check something out. You could assume that you are actually always paying the full price of the borrowed item, but if you return it, you are refunded the full price. Until you withdraw from the library society, borrowing seems free but it is not. You paid a refundable deposit. I am okay with a community inventory system where you need to have enough quester credits to borrow expensive items. It still feels free and reasonable. In addition to knowing how to use that expensive equipment safely. If you don't have enough credits to borrow it, you would need a sponsor to borrow it for you. That is how Arx works. But what about rewards? Why do you need enough quest credits as deposit if you are supposed to keep or consume the reward? If there is enough of that reward for everyone, it could be free. Otherwise, you still need to spend credits to bid for it. To simply commonly scarce rewards, the reward could just have a credit price. For example, a new reward added to the inventory could start at a credit price of 1000. If no one claims it, its price can drop regularly. I want an argument on whether the reward market should behave more like a transactional market where the winning bid amount goes to the crafter instead of simply distroyed. This situation is different from puting up a free land for auction, where the winning bid is destroyed (goes to Gaia) since the free land has no owner. +1 I also think that is more fair. According to your current forumlar, the crafter would get standard time credit for the crafting, plus benefit to society. In the case of a reward item, we are saying that the amount a quester is willing to bid for the reward is the goodness driving power of the reward item. It was thanks to the reward crafter that the quester was willing to help other people. By giving the credits back to the crafter, the society now knows WHO powered the system. +1 It may be correct to transfer credits to the crafter for this reason, but it is a little confusing since normally you only get credits for creating abundance, but in this case the crafter got credits for creating a scarcity. I don't think the crafter created a scarcity, the crafter merely created a new object of desire. The crafter didn't cause starvation. Good thoughts. I am leaning toward the crafter should get the winning bid. And for abundant reward that no one needs to bid on, the crafter still get credits based on standard crafting time. Then would it make sense that for rewards that do not require bidding, the claimer still needs to pay for the standard crafting time? I think that violates Arcacian principle. If the law requires the claimer to pay, it prevents the crafter from distributing free rewards. Back to Black's original question: If you claim a free reward then reoffer it at a time when people would bid on it, you would be earning the winning bid (plus perhaps a minimal standard listing credit). Is this a problem? Or is this particular case good because it means you helped the socity preserve something common for a time when it is out of stock? It seems that your action should worth credits unless the item went out of stock because you hoarded them when they were free. If you didn't hoard them, those items could still be sitting in inventory for people who need them. I think you can draw a difference between a functional item and a reward item. A foreseeable functional item shouldn't be hoardable. You simply can't check out/claim all the armor sets in the armory. I think the answer to that question might be Gaia resource accounting. Even a reward item might have a material component list. A person can't claim an item if they don't have the corresponding Gaia capacity to receive it. I am okay with that idea. I think that also aligns with artifact laws. If a crafter created a unique item with rare material, the item becomes an object of custody and it could require the sponsorship of more than one person to maintain custody (they have to pool their rare material rights to claim the artifact). I think it is easier if we don't have to distinguish betwen function or reward items. So I would think component limit is better because it is more objective. That is not sufficient because wooden shields are just "wood", but you can't discount the crafting time went in turning trees into shields. Only according for the material will still allow someone create a dangerous shortage of shields. +1 If an item is part of emergency or production item, then there should be more regulations against hoarding beyond the material limits. We need to classify the items to the best of your knowledge. A "reward" item can be defined as something that is not listed as part of the quantity needed for emergency or production reserve. Then once the reserves are filled, an extra shield can be a reward item. The determination is not merely based on what the item is, but whether it is reserved. Outside the reserve amount, you can do the "buy low sell high" operation. But even if you try this, you can't price gouge others because a person could just check-out equipment from the reserve. I would consider Black's concern solved. What about credit milling? You claim a reward item. Do you get credits for just listing it back? If you set the return credit too low, there might not be enough people returning things. Set it too high and you get people milling for credits. Since emergency and production items have reserves, I think the standard listing credit should almost be zero, if not exactly zero. If you list something and no one bids for it you get nothing when someone claims it. You merely let it go and regained some of your Gaia capacity to acquire other items. I can understand the freeing up capacity explanation. Suppose you find an artifact from your attic. You can't use it but thinks that someone else might. Should you get credits for listing it? Could you specify how many credits you want to part with it? You should get credits for registering the item so it has an item ID in the system. I think it is okay for the offerer to set a credit price. I think this is the same mechanism for a restaurant to set prices, especially for items it know would run out if they are offered for free. If you offer an item for sale for credits, then you shouldn't also get credits "helping", since you are already compoensated. The system shouldn't create more credits for you. I think it is okay if that is just the crafter's choice. The crafter knows how much they would get based on standard credit. If they think that is too low, they could use a different price. But I think the crafter could choose to claim both. There is the standard credit that the crafter is giving out for free, and the non-standard quality that the crafter is wants more credits for. Should this just be the crafter's choice, or does this need auditing? When the crafter claims quest credits, the crafter could be required to disclose if they are also collecting credits. Is it okay as long as they declare truthfully? I am okay with letting people just declare. I think it should normal for a re-crafter to get a free stave, enchant it, then re-offer it as a +1 stave at a higher credit. The system might not understand a need for a +1 stave, but a buyer would. When the buyer buys the stave, the system pays the crafter for the registration, but does not pay for the enchantment because the system doesn't yet know a value for that. But the buying record helps the system understand later what the value of the enchantment is. The system can retrospectively understand that the enchanter sold it for too low and compensate by giving the enchanter more credits. I think we now have the correct mechanism power the valuation system. Which is just the same as normal free trade. So we know to some extent this will result in correct valuation. The extra amount requested by the crafter is a guess of the gap between the standard worth and the true worth of the item. A buy can second that guess by buying the item. The system might retrospectively compensate both the seller and the buyer (e.g., The buyer was merely trying to get a more powerful stave to help people. She had to pay for it because at that time the system didn't compensate the crafter enough. Therefore the system reimbuses the crafter and/or the buyer for the temporary sponsorship. The honor that the buyer spent can be restored.) +1 Planning to give Jao for Christmas. What kind of toy is good for a toy drive? Keep it new, avoid batteries, consider accessibility.

A quest society with Gaia distribution doesn't have toy drives because a kid has their share of resources and can post quests. This means every kid can normally afford to get toys, so even though someone still has to make the toy for them, it is more similar to "being able to afford a toy" than "being given a toy they couldn't afford." But similar to a toy drive, when a kid gets a toy through the rewards inventory, the kid might not have paid for the labor cost, since the crafter got quest credits instead of getting paid. You could also say a toy drive is on going, but it exists not as a patch to unaffordability.

Wishcraft 101
202207212021|Wishcraft 101
July 21, 2022 Thursday 8:21 PM
Magic Bakery

Wishcraft 101 is a discussion series about how to collect and fulfill wishes. Those were the founding purpose of Magic Bakery. This particular discussion thread will be especially disorganized because I want to talk about the outline and also a wish that we could fulfill at the same time. I think that it would be easier to brainstorm if we have a wish as a context. So here it goes.

LRRH: Wishcraft 101 should cover collecting and fulfilling wishes. But there are different kind of wishes when people say "I wish something something."
LRRH: For example, say someone says, "I wish to finish this jigsaw puzzle." That can mean to things:
LRRH: 1) They wish that the puzzle jigsaw puzzle is complete, regardless who does it.
LRRH: 2) They wish that they themself have the leisure time to finish the puzzle by themself. They could mean that they wish that they don't need to work so they have spare time to do whatever they want to accomplish.
LRRH: Both wishes are valid wishes, a wish collector needs to tell the difference.
Vivi: So in this case, do you wish to write this guide by yourself, or do you wish to have this guide written regardless who writes it?
LRRH: You are a little bit ahead. To answer your question, my wish is that the guide is written regardless who writes it. But what I was getting at, is that at Magic Bakery, That is the default meaning of a wish.
LRRH: The Magic Bakery definition of a wish is a desired for an outcome regardless who fulfills it. That is the only way that Arcacia could get the permission to be involved. Little Red Riding Hood receives
LRRH: For example, if you wish for "world peace', it means that you let go of wanting to make a difference in the world and let the world make itself peaceful. This doesn't mean that you should do nothing when there is an opportunity to help. But it means that you are not trying to be important as you do it.
LRRH: If you try to do it yourself, Arcacia would pick up that desire and let you do it by yourself.
Vivi: Then why can't I just wish for being important in getting immediate good result?
LRRH: I suppose you can.
Evelyn: I think this concept is similar to the visualization technique. There you would imagine the good result in the present tense. But that technique is also different from making a wish, since the practitioner is thnking in future tense.
Evelyn: So, for example if you wish that the world is peaceful, what you condition yourself is "I am a peacemaker." You are not prescribing or predicting what you will do to make the world more peaceful. Instead, you just declare that that is who you are, without judging whether the world right now it peaceful or not.
Evelyn: Then in every challenge you face, you act in accordance to your self-assigned role as a peacemaker.
Vivi: But that means that the first lesson of making a wish is to NOT make a wish. Then we don't need Wishcraft 101, we need Selfcraft 101. 😅
LRRH: Let's have a comparison. In Guild Log, Black said he wanted to learn Japanese. @Black, is that wish current?
Black: It is current but low priority. And when I say wish, I am using the Magic Bakery meaning. I wouldn't mind if I just wake up tomorrow and be fluent in Japanese.
LRRH: According to Evelyn, instead of thinking that "I wish that I will become fluent in Japanese", you would instead say, "I AM a fluent Japanese speaker."
Evelyn: It is slightly different 😖, the present tense-role should be "I am a Japanese learner." In that declaration, you are telling yourself that, since you are a Japanese learner, you would do what a Japanese learner does. For example, if you don't know how something is said in Japanese, you would look it up. If you find an opportunity to practice Japanese, you would take it. It ties into Atomic Habits, where the identify is the trigger.
Ivy: That doesn't just tie into Atomic Habits, that IS Atomic Habit. Atomic Habit and Visualization overlap in that regard.
Vivi: And what is the comparison? What would Red did in terms of Wishcraft?
LRRH: In Wishcraft, we would post that as a quest for people to gather the best learning materials and methods. We would give credits for studying Japanese because that is no different from say the reading club. We will present the best resources we gathered and present it in a cute way.
Vivi: So the difference between Wishcraft and Visualization is that in Visualization, you are basically telling the person to go fulfill their own wish. While in Wishcraft, you would take that wish and create a supporting community to not help not only the person making a wish, but anyone else who are interested in learning or to help.
LRRH: I thought I lost but Vivi made it sound so awesome. 🍰🍰🍰
Ivy: They don't contradict. You can do both at the same time. You are creating a supportive community for learners and help them see themselves as proactive learners.
Vivi: So what is the best resource we know?
Ivy: There were some training methods where you get a list of most common phrases and keywords and just memorize those. As you use it daily, you would pick up the rest, including correcting the errors.
LRRH: I think how best to learn will evolve and could be different for each learner. But in Wishcraft, the first step is to create a place for people to share. That means we make a quest for it. A guide quest. And by now we have a few guides in the making so we should also have a collection node for guides.
Vivi: @StarTree.
StarTree: Hai! StarTree created a guide quest "Learning Japanese". 202207212155|🏯 Japanese Club That's not how StarTree should talk to Queen Vivi XD スターツリーが悪い?(Is StarTree bad?) That's too casual if you talk to your queen XD
Vivi: I don't want StarTree talking to me in Japanese all of a sudden.
Zoey: Then where can we do Japanese? Isn't that what the guide section is for? I thought it is fun if we talk in Japanese sometimes. No it is not. If I start seeing language I don't understand, I assume I am not invited and would stop reading it. It is off-putting because the site itself is not about Japanese. StarTree is doing it wrong! 😭 It is fine if the post is about Japanese. I agree that we should be kind to the reader. The reader is our guest. Maybe if we use other languages in normal discussion, we should at least put the translation next to it? Added 😭
Zoey: Do we get a daily quest for adding to the Japanese guide or practicing? Like the reading club?
LRRH: Yes, but the Japanese Guide quest is on EPIC C schedule. So please keep in mind that the credit is for helping, not for adding each word. So if you add a hundred words a day, you still only get 1 point. Yes I know, we don't count how many pages we read either. XD
Zoey: So who would join if it is a daily quest? I would, if it is quick. I would join too. 😊 StarTree wants to learn! I might. Depending on what you do there. I'll join.
Zoey: That's enough people, we'll decide what to do XD Learning Japanese is now set as a daily quest with a roster of "interested."
LRRH: Okay. I think that is all I wanted to discuss for now. I have a question. What is the plan for this weekend? If there is a birthday party, then going is the default unless we can't afford to. What about COVID? You don't have to eat anything or eat while others are eating. What is this about? Amelia wants to know if Black would attend a birthday party. But it is not in Black's habit to go anywhere. The target looks for arrows willing to reach it. Arcacia receives Okay. I'll plan to go. Evelyn thanks all for sharing.

"We collect and fulfill wishes. When everyone supports one another, every wish comes true, every story comes to a good end."
~ Magic Bakery
Welcome to Wishcraft 101, an orientation on collecting, sharing, and fulfilling wishes, as applied to Magic Bakery.
⭐ Making Wishes

🏅 Do you want it done or do you want to do it yourself?

2022-07-12: LRRH
There is probably no wrong ways to making wishes, but at Magic Bakery, a wish is something someone wants to happen regardless who makes that happen. However, since this is not a wide-spread understanding, it is okay if the wish maker is ambiguous. The wish collector is supposed to confirm the meaning so that they don't beat you to what you want to accomplish by yourself.
💌 Send us a wish here.

2022-10-05: LRRH
This is a form if you want to make a wish for us. [Google Form]
🎀 Collecting & Sharing Wishes

This section mainly pertains to members only. 💟
👉 Wishes that don't look like wishes

2022-10-05: LRRH
Sometimes wishes don't look like wishes. For example, someone is angry and complaining. But behind what they are angry at, there is something they want to happen instead. Collecting wishes is about identifying those desired outcomes even when the speak is not using the magical phrase, "I wish something something happens."
💣 Wishes that aren't wishes

2022-10-17: LRRH
Sometimes people wish for others to get hurt. At Magic Bakery, those types of wishes are called curses. You could try to create a wish out of it. Other than that we don't have a policy of dealing with those. It is a potential discussion topic.
🖥️ Log it at Guild Log

2022-10-05: LRRH
When a wish is collected, please first log it to the guild log unless you can finish it within a week.
📌 Pin it on our board

2022-10-05: LRRH
Every member may choose one wish they want to focus on and pin it on the board. You may pin another wish over your existing one. The point is your posts shouldn't take up all the spaces.
🎁 Fulfilling Wishes

This section mainly pertains to members only also. 💟
🕊️ World Peace

2022-10-06: LRRH
Many people wished for world peace. So we are not going to do that. We'will hand it to Arcacia because if we try to do it she would stop. Instead, we would just play and learn about what others do. It's all yours, Arcacia. LRRH receives
🎪 Make a Quest

2022-10-05: LRRH
For wishes that would take considerable time to complete, please make a quest node.

+1 Upgraded code to list musescore links. Removed old listing. Re-imported playlist and original entries as res list! Adding categories by vocal qualities. This is the theme of Ice Castles. +1 The Albatross mission complete tune can be used for Arena. mmfsds..sD...s...sfhrd...r... Made Noteworthy score for the tune, then to Musescore, Audacity, Clipchamp, Youtube. Doesn't this song sound epic? It could use some upgrade to make it perfect. I think the title of the song doesn't really match the song. The song is invigorating. If passion was fading this is full recharge plus limit break.

えんどろ〜る!

Lyrics

ぱぱぱぱん ちゅちゅちゅ らぱぱぱ~ん
ぱぱぱぱん ちゅちゅちゅ らぱぱぱ~ん
ぱぱぱぱん ちゅちゅちゅ らぱぱぱ~ん
ふ~ ら~ぱぱっ!

はじまりの予感に とくんとくん
このとびら開けたなら
Hajimari no yokan ni to kuntokun
Kono tobira aketanara
My heart is feeling something's about to happen, Thump, thump
If I open this door,
ステキな冒険が待つ未来
少し不安になるけれど
Suteki na bōken ga matsu mirai
Sukoshi fuan ni naru keredo
There's a future with wonderful adventure awaiting
I am a bit worried though.
陽だまりに照らされ わくわく
Hidamari ni terasare wakuwaku
Having sunlight shining over me, feeling excited,
陽だまり = sunlight
照らされ = be illuminated (passive form)
わくわく = excitedly (onomatopoeic)
この夢 かなえた後は
ありそでなかったその向こう
どこへ続くかなぁ?
Kono yume kanaeta ato wa
Ariso de nakatta sono mukou
Doko e tsuzuku ka naa?
After this dream comes true
is a place that didn't exist
Where does it lead?

ごちゃごちゃなルールより
キラキラな今があるから
ちいさな思い出も
「たからもの」になる
Gochagocha na ruuru yori
Kirakira na ima ga aru kara
Chīsana omoide mo
'takaramono' ni naru
Since there is more bright present than complicated rules
Even small memories become "treasure"

手をつないで さぁ
物語の次のページへ進もう
まだ白紙の 一文字目
Mada hakushi no hito moji-me
First character on the blank page
ここからはじめよ~!
エンドロールじゃお終わらないんだよ
続くファンタジーのプロローグ
Tsuzuku fantajii no puroroogu
A prologue for continuing fantasy
笑いあって 支えあって 
Waraiatte sasaeatte mada shiranai
Laughing and helping each other
まだ知らない
ストーリーを描いていこ~!

Repeat A1 「わすれもの」探して ぐるんぐるん
その理由しゃべりながら
キケンも生来の弱気が
すぐに教えてくれるの
kiken mo seirai no yowaki ga
sugu ni oshiete kureru no
Although I was born faint-hearted
could you tell me the danger soon?
たたかいの前には もぐもぐ
ふくれた ふぁいてぃんぐぽ~ずで
Fukureta fai ti n gu-po~ zu de
After I'm stuffed, in a fighting pose
高みを目指す あの魔法
どこにあるのかなあ?
Takami o mezasu ano mahou
Doko ni aru no ka naa?
Where is the magic that aims at height?

しわくちゃな目次より
ピカピカな余白があるから
Shiwakucha na mokuji yori
Pikapika na yohaku ga aru kara
There is more shiny margins than
the crumbled table of contents, therefore...
みんなのことばが
「たからもの」になる
Minna no kotoba ga
'takaramono' ni naru
... Everyone's words
become "treasures".

手をつないで さぁ
物語の次のページへ進もう
ほら表紙の できあがり
これからを綴ろ~!
Hora hyoushi no dekiagari
Kore kara o tsuzuro~!
See, we just finished the cover page
Let's write what's ahead
エンドロールじゃあ 終わらないんだよ
巡るファンタジーのプロローグ
Endo rouru ja owaranai n da yo
Meguru fantajī no purorougu
It can't end with an endroll
A prologue for round and round fantasy
付箋なんて はずしちゃって
ながいながい
ストーリーを描いていこ~!
Fusen nante hazushichatte
Nagai nagai
Sutōrī o egaite iko~!
Oops I took off the sticky notes
Let's write a long, long story!

「わすれもの」思い出したよ
運命とかじゃないんだろ~な
'wasuremono' omoidashita yo
Unmei to ka ja nai n daro~ na
I just remember what "I forgot"
It's not fate
迷子の なかまを
めでたしの奥には置いてかないから!
ltD--lD--DR--DM--
MFSFMFMRD-DDRMM-RR
Maigo no Nakama o
Medetashi no oku ni wa oitekanai kara!
I'll never leave my friends behind
Beyond the happy ending

手をつないだら
見つけたんだよ みんなが笑う景色を
いまキセキの ふぁんふぁ~れ ここから奏でよ~!
エンドロールじゃあ終わらないんだよ
Ima kiseki no fan-fua~re koko kara kanadeyo~!
Endo rouru jaa owaranai n da yo
I hear a fanfare for the miracle, let's play from here
It can't end with an endroll
とびらの向こうはプロローグ
夢をもっと 集めちゃって
Tobira no mukou wa purorougu
Yume o motto atsumechatte
Beyond the door is a prologue
Gather more dreams and
むげんだいの 舞台の幕 上げよう~!
まだ知らないストーリーを描いていこ~!
Mugen dai no Butai no maku ageyō~!
Mada shiranai sutōrī o egaite iko~!
Let's open the curtain of the infinite stage
And write a story we don't yet know!

ぱぱぱぱん たびは つづくよ~!
ぱぱぱぱん いつも ありがと~!
ぱぱぱぱん ひびけ えんどろ~!
ふ~ずっと…
Papapa pan tabi wa tsuzuku yo~!
Papapa pan itsu mo arigato~!
Papapa pan hibike e n doro~!
Fu~ zutto…
Papapapan an adventure continues
Papapapan Thank you always
Papapapan Make the enroll echo
Fu- forever

For the new Daily Quest on learning Japanese I am proposing memorizing lyrics as an activity. If you have a better idea please propose. And you may speak Japanese in this thread. ✌

Zoey: Advantages I see of learning by lyrics:
Zoey: Number 1 reason: It is fun and happy.
Zoey: Number 2 reason: It repeats, which help in memorization.
Zoey: With this proposal I made a node and posted the lyrics here: 202207220712|Endoro-Ru!
Zoey: I posted the kanji version because that is the end result: to know how to read it and what it means.
Zoey: You may find the romanji and translation on a different link there. You could make it more convenient by turning some lyrics into buttons to display romanji and translation. But you should need to click on it for it to display. If it is shown all the time you can't test whether you can't test your understanding.
Zoey: Same goes for each section of the lyrics. By default they are hidden behind the section code. This is for memorizing the whole song.
Zoey: 以上です
Evelyn: Cute song!! 😍
LRRH: I added a note for a kanji.
Zoey: Yes, the first step should be to add notes that will help you memorize. At this point the most important focus should be how to read what you can't read. I also added my own translation. Good job!
Vivi: I don't see any translation. I added to section B1 陽だまりに照らされ わくわく Why that line only? That's the first line I couldn't read. 🐣 What about people who can't read any? As a Japanese learner, you could add the note from the first line you don't understand. You may do so by copying the romanji and the translation. It is self-paced, there is no deadline or anything.
Black: So for the daily quest, do I just pick a line and add the romanji and translation in html? Yes, I think that is enough effort. 👍 Black added notes to a line also.
Ivy: I made a suggestion at the learning japanese node. Since that wasn't directly about lyrics. Thank you.
StarTree: Wee~!
3B: Hmm... It won't make sense if I break apart some sentence into two parts. So I translate them together. It is fine 😉
P4: P4 wants to sing this song. We can sing it together. 😊 💟

Decision Rule

202207222009|PIN 202207222009
Decision Rule refers to a practice of defining what a decision should be given a circumstance before the circumstance happens. Decision rules are normally designed to make a decision transparent and objective, to make the decisions consistent, and to reduce the time it takes to make a decision.

Examples

⭐ Rules that determine the winner of a competition.
⭐ A computer algorithm that does schedule planning.
⭐ An emergency response protocol

Implementation

⭐ A list of rules
⭐ A decision tree
⭐ A decision flow chart
⭐ A decision table

Difference between decision rule and chain of command

A chain of command defines who has the authority to make a decision whereas a decision rule defines what the decision should be regardless who is "in command".

Difference between a decision rule and a law

A law may only define what is illegal, whereas a decision rule will define how to tell if a person has violated the law. Well-defined decision rules would replaces judges.

202207222057|Simple solution
July 22, 2022 Friday 8:57 PM
Harbor

I had a problem where I could forget to bring back my laptop from home when I go to work. So I tried a very cheap solution and it has been working well. Could you guess the solution? More about the context: I transfer the laptop in a backpack. When I am home, I take the laptop from the backpack, then put it on my desk at a dock. The next morning, if I forgot about it, I would just take the backpack and go. What did I do so this doesn't happen?

Sasha: Did you stop bringing it home? Everything I said above still happen, I am still transporting the laptop in a backpack, docking it at home, etc. But I added something so I won't forget bringing the laptop..
P4: Did you tie the laptop to the backpack? In that idea, when would I tie the laptop to the backpack? When you take it out of the backpack? But I could take it out without tying it, correct? My method doesn't require me to remember that added step.
Sasha: So you added a step that you would not forget. What does that mean? You could forget everything. Would you forget to wear shoes when you go out? No. Why not? Because the moment I step outside barefoot it would feel dirty. A step that you can't forget has something similar. I see a pun XD 👍
Evelyn: Do you put a note on the backpack saying, "Please bring the laptop"? I think that's what I would do. I thought about that, but what do you do with that note once you put the laptop in the backpack? Maybe leave it at the location where you would normally put the backpack at home? Then when you try to put the backpack there, you see the note so you would take it and put it on the backpack. Your method is close to mine, but I think mine is more foolproof. In your case, if I decide to put the backpack else where, or if I put did not notice the note and put the backpack on it, then the mechanism is defeated.
Tanya: Did you put the note at the dock when you leave? Then the only way to defeat that is if you take the laptop out but do not dock it. If you dock it everytime, you would see the note at the dock. At which point you would put that note to the backpack. This is extremely close. So I will tell what I did: Instead of using a note, I used a rubberband. When I leave, I loop the rubberband around the dock such that it is impossible to dock the laptop without remove it. Then when I remove it to dock the laptop, I tie the rubberband at my backpack opening such that I can't put the backpack inside without removing the rubberband. I see. It is clever. 😃
Black: Now if you understand this solution, I have another question: At work, I have a key that I insert at whichever computer I happen to work with. Sometimes I forget to remove it when I am doing working at that computer. How do I not forget? You don't have to apply the same solution I did with my laptop. I'm asking for any good solution.
Tanya: I have a solution, but that is because I know more about the context, that you didn't describe in your puzzle. Please describe that context.
Tanya: The context is this: Most of the time, the computer Black services already has a key. Black takes that key out and insert his own key when he works on that computer. And most typically, when he services a computer, he also brings his laptop. So here is my solution: When you remove the original key, attach it to your laptop so that you can't close your laptop without noticing it. When you see that it should remind you to retrieve your key. I understand your solution, but my laptop doesn't have a convenient way to attach a key to it.
Sasha: How about you add a detachable bracelet to your key? When you insert it to another computer, you remove it and tie it to yourself. Maybe it would also have bells so you would hear it if you walk around without your key. Cute! 😉 I think bells would be too distracting to myself and people around. And I think if I tie the keychain to somewhere I would notice all the time it would also be distracting. For example, where would I tie it?
Evelyn: Then about a piece of tape? Keep the tape on the key so you can't insert it without taking it off. When you take it off, stick it to your laptop so it can't close. That is something I would try, Except my laptop doesn't have that hook latch, so a piece of tape can't prevent it from closing. Black thanks all for the ideas.

This node aims to teach people how to defeat biases for a more fair and cooperative world. Biases & Fallacies are errors in one's thinking that may lead to wrong conclusions or decisions. When a citizenry does not have enough people to point out these fallacies, the fallacies could become normalized and the community would trap itself in a downward spiral of bad decisions. Therefore, the use of biases and fallacies in a community is like spreading poison or addictive drug. A community affected but it needs detoxification. Updating format. Light update. Node format upgrade toward EPIC. To help identify biases, the many different kinds of biases are categorized into a few major categories. This category of biases tries to dismiss the message by discrediting its speaker. This type of behavior is often motivated by agenda-based participation, where the attacker is not trying to discuss or evaluate a topic fairly, but to defend their view and attack the other views. This category has issues on what facts or factors are considered. A person suffering from sampling issue but does not have an agenda would readily thank those who point out blindspots. This category has issues on drawing an incorrect conclusion by relying on perception instead of correct logic and calculations.
    A group plague by biases and fallacies could make costly wrong decisions even if they had good intentions. Biases and fallacies are often exploited by people with malicious intents to manipulate public opinions to enact harmful policies. Checking each other's study for biases and fallacies is a common way for a community to keep itself alert and defend against biases.
    Recognize when your message should be correct, and get it reviewed for correctness, especiallly when you are making a decision that impacts other people.
    {"cmd":"url","url":"https://yourbias.is/","desc":"🔗"} 24 Biases | {"cmd":"url","url":"https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/","desc":"🔗"} 24 Logical Fallacies | {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/","desc":"🔗"} Fallacies Forum | Learn one correct way to make a type of decision. Given a need to make a decision, what information do you need? The resulting knowledge of how to make that decision is a schema. Once you get a schema, you can compare, refine, and adapt it to specific decisions. And by doing that you will notice the moments when you or others are trying to make a decision without fulfilling the schema. Learn a way to tell if a decision is wrong, or need further justification.
      In a smear attack, the attacker describes the victim's actions or intentions with a negative bias. The attacker would violate Hanlon's Razor by judging malice when more innocent or neutral intentions would suffice. Signs of smear attack include using negative adjactives without explaining or disclosing the scale, but positive adjactives when describing ones own actions.

    Create a directory of decision schema and matrices. Create a directory of decision mistakes due to biases or fallacies to share lessons learned. Make a list of topics where people frequently discuss with biases and fallacies.
    Categorize the biases into types. For example, instead of having dozens of biases and fallacies, group them into: a) Biases on the messenger. (Are the decision-makers disqualifying a message based on the messenger instead of evaluating the merit of the message itself? >> General countermeasure: review the message without showing the speaker.) b) Biases on the facts. (Are the decision-makers ignoring facts or accepting myths as facts? >> General countermeasure: Discussion log showing all unaddressed points.) c) Biases on the expected outcome. (Are the decision-makers willfully ignoring the risks of a plan and focusing only on the potential benefits? >> General countermeasure: Accountability mapping. This is a table/diagram confirming whether the decision-makers are at least gambling with their resources instead of someone else's.)
    Showcase and tackle challenges in resolving biases and fallacies.
An ad Hominem attack tries to dismiss an argument by disqualifying the speaker. Accusing the intent of a legitimate question. https://nextdoor.com/p/8q75t9X4mtRY/c/1233812867 Dismissal is considered an attack when someone is invited to speak but their message is unfairly dismissed. Evasion as an "attack" happens when you don't answer a question you have a duty to answer. It is an "attack" because you are an obstacle preventing people from getting what they should be able to get. Phobia is a neutral word of describing psychology https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1827373426820186263 What to do with people who can only consider one binary bit of information? This section is for discussing how this node will be used so we can format it accordingly. In an online forum, when a bias is detected, I want to have a list to confirm whether the bias detection is correct, and link to a page to explain how to prevent expressing such bias. Will your usage need the RES list area? How is this node different from the Log Fall node? If I see something that looks like a bias, I need somewhere to log the sighting. Then we can discuss and classify it. Where should sightings be listed? I want to reformat the LogFall node as a game node. If you have a sighting it can be here. Clean up the old LogFall Dungeon node. Currently we have the categories "Attacking the Speaker", "Blindness in Sampling", and "Conclusion Errors". Should we also categorize them based on their use in various intentions? "Agenda", "Scope", "Equation", "Computation"? I think objective categories are easier to use. I think in each objective category you can add pointer on how to tell if someone committed that bias by mistake or by intention. But the way to tell is the same: If someone did it by mistake, they will correct it once you tell them. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/","desc":"🔗 Fallacious"} {"id":"202207241111","parentid":"202209142228","parentname":"Oracle Skills","icon":"🍂","title":"Biases & Fallacies","subtitle":"Logical Defense","kids":"","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/12/01/20/28/road-1072821_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"Tanya","description":"","card-text":""}

DEFINITION

Misrepresenting someone's argument to make it easier to attack.
~ Logical Fallacy
Example

Consider the following dialogue where Bob replies to Ann's comment.
[1] Ann: "Compassion is the motivation to be kind and considerate. If a person buys out something without considering that someone else might need them, then the person is not acting out of compassion."
[2] Bob: "It is unfair to ask each person to consider the needs of everyone in the city as no one has a reasonable way of doing so."
Ann's comment did not say that anyone is demanding compassion. While's Ann may agree with Bob that it is unfair to ask each person to consider everyone, Bob's reply is a strawman. His statement attacked Ann by making Ann sounds unfair to a casual reader. Without using a strawman reply, Bob could have said this:
[2a] Bob: "The definition of compassion should include everything that is fair. Since it is unfair to ask each person to consider the needs of everyone, compassion does not require a person to consider everyone. And, since it is fair for a person to consider only themself as long as they don't hurt anyone else, compassion includes not considering others at all."
If that is what Bob means, Bob's reply would not be a strawman, but Bob's definition would still be at risk of 202208011038|Black-or-White fallacy, because he has equated "compassion" and "fair demand", when the two concepts could be independent:

Without Black-or-White Fallacy


An action can be...
a) compassionate and fair demand;
b) compassionate but unfair demand;
c) not compassionate but fair demand;
d) not compassionate and unfair demand;

With Black-or-White Fallacy


An action can only be...
a) compassionate and fair demand;
b) compassionate but unfair demand;
c) not compassionate but fair demand;
d) not compassionate and unfair demand;

Failure Analysis
202207241816|Dark Elemental
202207161150|◀ July 24, 2022 Sunday 6:16 PM
Arx Dungeon

Little Red Riding Hood sealed a monster for others to identify. I found this. In that post, the original Tweeter said "If you are 16 years or order, you have 80% chance of having already met the person you will marry." The particular response I linked to says, "Then you don't know about the Indians. We know 16 minutes before marriage." I think the response could be something like, "whereas iXX% of the people in India meet their wife for the first time 16 minutes before marriage."

Red, do you want to specify what fallacy this is? If I say it, how do others play? They can spot and identify the monster by themself. I think it is Anecdotal. And what monster do you want that to be? Something that makes the room dark, so that the heroes can only see what is in front of them. A light-eater. What kind of monster is that? I've just made up the name. So basically you can define it to be anything. If it eats light, how do you fight it? If the OP had correct statistics, they could show whether it includes Indians. So if the source is strong enough, then the monster is defeated.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood had identified a dark elemental.
Tanya: The Dark Elemental is sucking the lights from the torches.
Zoey: Zoey observes the torches carefully. I am trying to find the source of those torches. The claim from the OP didn't seem believable to begin with. Maybe the torches are also monsters. And I couldn't find the source to that "fact.".
Zoey: Zoey couldn't find any light source big enough to defeat this dark element. "I think we should just leave it be."
Tanya: As the heroes waited, the dark elemental shrinks into a dormant statge, three treasure chests appeared before the heroes. Ledia, you may get a Level 1 treasure. Zoey a Level 2 treasure, and Red a Level 4 treasure.
Ledia: Ledia opens the small treasure chest, since she barely did anything, Ledia obtains a sack of gold for 250 points. Is this the first time we see a Level 4 chest? Yes it is!
Zoey: Zoey is very curious what the big chest would have, but opens the medium chest because she thinks Red should get the big chest. Zoey obtains a sack of gold for 500 points.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood pops open the big chest. Red obtains a silver coffer for 4000 points. Little Red Riding Hood is now taking the lead. XD
Ledia: At this rate Red will graduate first, so we shouldn't rely on her sealing them in the wild. We should seal them ourselves.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood doesn't mind keep doing what she has always been doing.
Ledia: But for our training purpose, we should get some experience spotting them in the wild.
LRRH: Then what do you wish me to do?
Ledia: I am not trying to change what you do, I'm just saying Zoey and I should try to spot monsters also.
Zoey: To me I think that means if Red spots a monster, just go ahead and finish it. You don't need to save it for us. We are supposed to also go and spot them as part of the training.
LRRH: Okay.
LRRH: If I complete the Cleric track, do I continue with the Fighter track then the Wizard track?
Sasha: Yes, if you want.
LRRH: Then Little Red Riding Hood wants to be on the Wizard track.
Sasha: Anyone object to a name change? The first 10K points is for an "Initiate". The next 10K is for "Guardian". The third 10K is for "Veteran". That can be combined with your role title. So Ledia is "Fighter Initiate", and Zoey is "Rogue Initiate."
Zoey: If we are changing that I want to be "Ranger Initiate." XD
Sasha: Yes that's fine. And these titles are only for this dungeon.
Ledia: I'm fine with that.
LRRH: I am fine with that also. What happens after 30K points?
Sasha: Maybe you get a star for very 10K more?
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood wants stars.
Ledia: Should we get a star for every 10K we complete? Then a Guardian will have at least one star, and Veteran has at least two stars.
Sasha: I'll take that idea. The chamber is cleared by the initiates. 202207242005|Dark Elemental

202207241953|🏛️ Anecdotal {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202207241953","music":""}

DEFINITION

Using personal experience or an isolated example instead of a valid argument, especially to dismiss statistics.
~ Logical Fallacy
Examples

Ann: If you roll three d6, you might get all one's.
Bob: No that had never happened to me.

Jason: That game has player elimination too.
Tom: But when does that ever happen? {"cmd":"url","url":"https://youtu.be/BQKpdffjF1w?t=1246","desc":"[20:46]"}
Q: When is anecdote not a fallacy?

Providing an anecdote is logically valid when you are trying to show that a situation exists.

Example 1

Tom: I have seen you get mad playing this game, so you can't say people don't get mad player it. I've seen many people get mad playing this game.

Priority: Go to Scoreboard and tally. Go down the ranked list to find the member with the most XP without a profile node and do that first. Go to the SK sheet and fill up the skill names, rank, and apply the code macro. Fill the Type column then sort them by type. If the profile node doesn't already exist, make it by copying the current best format, then change the content. If this is a new profile node, check the old blogspot page to include any old profile image. If a new profile node is made, add it to the Profiles list and add the node ID to the Scoreboard entry. Making profile node for myself. Doing Neil. Tracking how much time it actually took. Neil has no recognition on SK. Adding cooking since his highest icon is for cooking. Making a node for... Robert. Making a profile node for Therese. Changing her archetype to Cleric because most of her skills are Cleric skills.

There was a request to add custom graphics to the blog. So I made this quest for us to list, discuss, and rank blog graphics. 202207251001|⭐ Blog Assets

Fina: @Arena needs the stage drawn. We can't readily find a picture that is an arena in a forest.
3B: Would the style be similar to Chapter 10 Page 10? In front of the Gate Temple? We need each manga page to have its own ID... So we could reference them.
Fina: Let's modify the scene so the Gate Temple entrance is in the background.
Evelyn: I hope that layout doesn't block the path to the temple when there is an arena event.
Fina: Referring to Chapter 9 Page 21, normally no one comes out of the Gate Temple unless there is a Stewardship Council meeting. How about the center of Stewardship council? What else is that space for? That's a lodging area, where people rest. The area in front of the Gate Temple is already a tourist area and can be noisy. Okay. 🙂
Sasha: Where would that picture go? It will replace the background image of Chapter 23. Okay. That needs to be replaced. It is not representative at all. 3B thanks all for the suggestions.

How are your self-rewards doing? I am asking this question for Step 3 in Carrot Cake of Peace recipe. I know that we are supposed to move content to the archvie, but I think completing the discussions for each step is more important right now.

Black: I want to write a story for 44 and Amelia. You see, we play but we don't record it while playing. So afterward there is nothing to remember. What do you play together? Predominately escape games. Was there a storyline? Other than "you've been locked up and need to escape"? The last one was "The Pharaoh's tomb". The story was that you were on a tour visiting a tomb, then you got lost and the stone door closes behind you.
Tanya: Was it memorable? It wasn't, but that's the kind of thing we do together. But was that the most memorable thing you did together recently? They liked the Worst Case Scenario Surival Game, which was a trivia game. But we had only started. That seems easier to write about with less commitment.
Black: Oh, I remember one thing memorable about the Pharaoh escape game. The instruction kept on hinting that we need to destroy the game material to solve the solve the puzzles. And time and time again I showed that we didn't need to do so. It seemed like a scheme from the game maker to prevent the set from being replayed. So did you end up destroying it? No, we kept it good as new. Then can we play it? Yes, but I am trying to write a story for us. We are already playing Mice & Mystics. 😅 Why can't we play both?
Ivy: Instead of a story, which would be a lot of commitment, why not start with a reivew or a report? There you could put who played it and your confirmation that the players do not need to destroy the game to solve it. Okay, I'll do that first. I think that's a good idea.
Zoey: What about the Baker Street Irregular case? When do we resume that? Maybe in a few weeks. Aww... I think that will be easier to write story for, because the puzzles would not be, "look at these pictures and find the numbers to open a lock." True. It might be more difficult, but it is the group dynamic that turns the situation into a story. As long as you have likable characters, it almost doesn't matter what they are doing. I think that is too much effort trying to make something good out of something difficult. 202207252201|⭐ The Pharaoh's Tomb
Zoey: When do we continue Mice & Mystics? Maybe this weekend? Hurry up so I can play XD
Evelyn: What about Tanya? Is Tanya happy? I think there should be better stories than those about playing games. For Cardinal Quests, we using games to tell what we do in reality. If you just start with a game and try to tell the story about it, then it is the oppposite of what Cardinal is about.
Tanya: What quests do 44 and Amelia have? Their schedules are quite full with kids. I see. But I'll keep that in mind that if they ask for something, we will make that a quest. Then maybe I can also help. 🤗
Sasha: So how does Tanya reward herself? I hope that we don't pressure each other to talk. This discussion should be voluntary. 😅
Sasha: How about in the next Mice & Mystics tile, I sit out and Tanya plays? It had only been 30 minutes since Maginos was OOM. I envision him to be OOM for the whole chapter until he gets proper rest--After escaping the castle. Then how about Tanya try playing Collin? I would rather roleplay Maginos while he is not actually on the game board.
Sasha: Okay. So we will start setting up and possibly play some whenever we have time. I'm fine with that. We need to know the special rules about the next tile. Evelyn thanks the group and looks forward to the next game session.

Game

The Pharaoh's Tomb

202207252201|PIN 202207252201

Full Title

EXIT: The Game: The Pharaoh's Tomb by KOSMOS
Amazon | BGG

Played (2022-07-04)

Highlight

The game instruction keeps on telling us that we need to mark, fold, cut and tear the game material to solve the riddles, but it is unnecessary if you could imagine what happens if something is folded or cut. There was nothing hidden out of sight. If you need to mark on something, you could just make a copy and mark on the copy.

The Good

A good thing about this escape game, is that it is completely self-contained. You don't need to go to any website or download any app for the game to work.

The Mechanism

Like other escape games, the many riddles about observing and deducing the pattern intended by the designer. In this game, all solutions are translated into three symbols. When the answer wheel is turned to that symbol pattern, it gives the number of a card, which leads to the verdict on whether the answer is correct.

Magic Bakery Quest Charter XXX
December 5, 2021
@Cardinal Version 2.
Turning Peacemaking into a Game
PART I - Overview
The Cardinal Engine (aka. Cardinal, Engine) is a set of rules that translate real life attributes, actions, and challenges into game terminologies to turn life into a game in the style a person (the player) chooses. This quest charter requests approval to implement Cardinal to gamify peacemaking according to the design goals below.
PART II - Design Goals
1. Public Domain Design: The Cardinal Engine and ALL of its module and art assets shall be designated as public domain. (i.e.: The appearance of the Cardinal Logo may resemble, but is not, a copyright sign.)

2. Translating Real Challenges: The game Engine shall translate real life attributes and challenges so that the thought patterns, skills, and solutions to resolve in-game challenges are equivalent to peacemaking skills in real life.

3. Aligned Rewards: In-game rewards shall be aligned to peacemaking efforts. (e.g. A player shall earn EXP only if their action contributes to peacemaking. See also the EPIC categories of peacemaking activities.)

4. Player-Bound EXP: Since player EXP come from peacemaking deeds, the EXP shall follow the player and be importable to any Cardinal game mod. (i.e. A player is allowed to level up in any Cardinal game ,or without playing the game, and be able to import their player EXP to get an equivalent character corresponding to their level in the theme and context of the any Cardinal game.

5. Low Stress Gameplay: While the game provides a platform as a reward for peacemakers to play, with in-game activities not necessarily eligible for earning peacemaker EXP, the Engine shall have mechanism against over-indulgence in the game itself. The stress level created by the game itself shall not be more than that of current events occurringat the time of play.
PART III - Resource Requested
Message Board: This charter requests the use of Magic Bakery message board at Blogger to run Daily Quest, which is a roleplay enabled mechanism to direct player attention to other guild charters that are neglected or needs assistance. Daily Quest shall run only if remain fun and low stress for the players. If the Cardinal Engine fails to keep the game in the fun zone with its mechanics, administratie intervention, including suspending the game, shall apply.

Magic Bakery Dining Room: This charter requests the use of Magic Bakery Dining Room to host game sessions occasionally, subjected to scheduling and approval of Magic Bakery residents on a case-by-case basis.
PART IV - EXP Requested
This charter requests guild approval to award EXP for the following activities if they are not otherwise covered by another quest charter.

Rule Books: EXP is requested for contributors to the Cardinal Engine design and rule book, including rule book for specific mods satisfying the Cardinal Design Goals, and specific guild rules regarding how the game shall be run at Magic Bakery.

Participation: EXP is requested for general constructive discussion about the engine (even if the comment or idea is not adopted in the rule set), and roleplay during the Daily Quest. EXP awarded shall follow the 5 EXP rubric, with 5 EXP being the daily maximum.

Art Assets: EXP is requested for creating and organizing public domain art assets (including graphics and music) for improving the gaming experience and presentation of Cardinal or game-related information.

Weekly Backup: EXP is requested for backing up design assets with maximum frequency of once per week.
PART V - Endorsement and Guild Approval

Game Masters bring fun to a group by running games. A good game master is prepared with the physical components of the game and understand the game rules, so that when the players may spend most of the time playing instead of learning how the game works.

How do you kow if you know the game rules?

Visualize yourself playing the game, or running the game. Do you know the objective? Do you know the available player actions? If you can foresee a situation where the players are stuck and must consult the game manual (because you also don't know the rule), then you are not ready. Be prepared and learn the rules before the game session. Takes notes or make bookmarks if you don't want to memorize everything.

🎲 When to roll dice

When should dice be rolled?

GM Dice

In general, the GM should roll the dice if the game is at a moment where a random surprise would be good. This frees the GM from having to make deep planning.

Player Dice

When there are many players and each has a different idea on what to do, the GM could let the players roll and let the result determine which plan ends up working. 202308201636|Example I like rolling dice for skill placement. I like simpler rolls where there is no number and attributes to add.
📒 Rules Comparison

This section studies and compares with rules from other games.
Cairn

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ8MnckBn9I","desc":"[link]"} 2023-09-10: Classless character creation by rolling dice. Not rolling dice for character is standard and required for our group since we are playing ourselves. Levelless: Even though our players have levels, during a game the characters are practically levelless, since we just go by what skills (and the rank of the skill) the characters have. Role under: Role under is not intuitive. We prefer our system where our skill determines how many dice we can roll. No sudden death: I think we agree with this for TPK (we don't really have player character death.) The danger would be forewarned and there might be a saving reaction roll. Casting spell with a spell book: That is just not cool. Maybe only for really long spells.
Daggerheart

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0MZojA7PuY","desc":"[link]"} 2023-09-10: Daggerheart uses two D12, with one representing hope and the other fear. While this creates many variabilities, I think this type of variabilities is too much for our group. We shifted away from numbered dice and want a system with less arithmetic and result tables. Permanent character death seems to be a thing in Daggerheart but that also doesn't work in our group. What I like is the modular card system, where every rule, attribute, backstory element is captured by a card. So building a character is like deck building. When we do it online, the deck can be virtual, and there could be more explanation than what can fit on the card. In our group we don't want a system where there is a deck to maintain for each player. But cards are cute and we could design cards and print them as keepsake.

Arcacianism Visibility
202207271004|Arcacianism
202207110838|◀ July 27, 2022 Wednesday 10:04 AM
Magic Detective

Great Detective Sasha decides to tackle the search visibility problem of Arcacianism.
202207112218|⭐ Search Visibility

Sasha: Current Status: If you google "Arcacianism", you will only find one hit at a YouTube. And that is not us. The quest is to make Arcacianism searchable.
Sasha: One of the suggestions was to promote at Twitter. At Twitter, Red mentioned 'Hospitalianism" several times, but google search result only gives one link to Red's account.
Sasha: And that link does not directly go to the tweet where Red mentioned it. So Twitter is not good at increasing search visibility UNLESS it gets others talking about it.
Sasha: However, I propose we still make a tweet about Arcacianism, and see if the search result will go from 1 hit (with none by us) to 2 hits (with one by us).
Zoey: Could we add a link to Arcacianism at Seed of Peace? Yes, we'll take all paths. Red tweeted about Arcacianism.
This node collects notes on Gift Economy and compare it to other concepts. Reformatted the node. "A gift economy or gift culture is a system of exchange where valuables are not sold, but rather given without an explicit agreement for immediate or future rewards." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gift_economy "The earth has enough for everyone's need, but not for everyone's greed." In a gift economy the more you give, the richer you are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6S1egXWYwXo https://www.youtube.com/embed/Mjoxh4c2Dj0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2o5gKAUaxM http://sacred-economics.com/film/ The concept of Gift Economy presented here is not necessarily the same as Gift Society described in https://changingtheworldiseasy.com/to-what/whats-the-resource-based-gift-economy-rbge/. A Gift Economy does not depend on concepts such as RBE. Gift Economy is about an economy based on the intention to give, which requires the giver to be a rightful owner of the thing being given. Gift Society: Born Retired https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1555068889704239105 The more prolific you are, the more free things you can give. https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1453024722598301702?t=MLKBcMlPO8EPxkcf3i2Skw&s=19 Wanting others to get for free https://nextdoor.com/p/k9M6gWd9BRjg {"id":"202207272130","parentid":"202207161423","parentname":"Philosophies","icon":"🎁","title":"Gift Economy","subtitle":"Philosophy","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/09/22/19/19/apples-5594125_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"LRRH","description":"","card-text":""}

202207280829|Scavenging
202207110838|◀ July 28, 2022 Thursday 8:29 AM
Freedom Plaza

Should scavenging from recycling bin (for recyclables) be legal or illegal? As part of Chapter 28 Chartered objective, the purpose of this thread is to vet common policies and judge whether they support or violate freedom.

James: Context: A city has a contract with a recylcing company where the recycling company provides recycling bins to the households, and gives the city a refund for the amount of recyclables collected through that arrangement. The refund reduces the collective per household rate for waste removal.
James: In that context, there are scavengers who would go from household to household collecting recyclables from those bin, then haul them to the recycling center to get a refund for themselves.
James: Question: Should that scavenger practice be LEGAL?
Tanya: Depositing recyclables to a marked recycling bin can mean that the depositor wants the city be refunded. But not always, as some households do not care. However, the scavenger has no rights to assume that the households do not care. Scavengers have a responsibility to ask for permission. Otherwise, they are violating the household's freewill.
Black: So this comes down to a communication issue. The moral bottom line is that since there is a process of how the recyclable shall get from the household to the recycling place where the city would be credited, no one shall assume that they have the permission to violate the process. Assuming permission is a moral violation. I think this question has merit for @Arena, and Black should join Arena. If you take the time to list all the moral bottom line, you might have a consistent set of moral rules. I'll consider joining as "moralism" then.

This club is for sharing anime that we watch or want to watch as a club. In general we prefer titles with kind and peaceful stories. Import anime club comments for completeness I think the anime list needs RES upgrade... Hmm... I don't want the anime list to show the question marks for the year as if it is a Timeline game. How should they be differentiated? XD I think an anime entry isn't a resource. It is just a topic. @StarTree please support. Adding the search section. Adding channel info. Should the website display Crunchyroll and Netflix icons? They are currently orange circle and red square. I think we shouldn't update or maintain that kind of information. But could you try using food icons stead? 🍱🍙🍛🍚 Using 🥐 for Crunchyroll and 🌮 for Netflix. I think each anime should have its specified icon. It would be more interesting to have a wide variety of food items. This is exciting. The new icon counting system make it seems like you can level up your favorite anime by listing all the lessons you learned from it. Exactly! XD Instead of using the cap icon, it should be the owl icon. Updated the node format.

    Episode 1 has a tips on wearing a mask and smile under it all day to train for a smile and more expressive facial muscles. The series also talks about correcting one's posture, appearance and aura. If you don't know what to wear, go to a department store and just copy the style of the display model. If you don't know how to take care of your face or hair style, visit a beauty salon. There is a milestone when people around you notice that you have changed. S2-8" Don't get conformatable by belittling yourself. It makes people who like you sad. Episode 2 Tips: Notice who starts a topic, and who expands a topic. Use a voice recorder to record yourself speaking in a conversation to be aware of the difference in speech and tone between you and others. Practice: Practice having more expressive tone by replying using only vowels (Japanese a, i, u, e, o) To help start a topic, keep notes/flash cards on who likes what kinds of topic. Challenge: Push yourself to talk to other people each day. Challenge: Push yourself to start and engage in conversations. Milestone: Be able to make suggestions that others will agree to. Episode 3 Tips: When you run out of topics, you can talk about someone's clothing or expression. Episode 8? 10 Tips: Practice responding to someone in a teasing way to avoid having only a passive role in a group. Episode 3 talks about how in real life, a person gets experience from losing. There was a disagreement (toward the end of episode 5) on whether or how much you should change yourself to be effective in changing others. The concept in the anime is that if you know your end result is correct but you can't get it through to the other person in the way you think is correct, then it is okay to use ways that others accept even when you think that those ways are wrong. S2-3: Be interested in other people. S2-4: Have a personal online account (e.g. Instagram)
XD +1 XD Cute !!! 😍 +1 XD +1 EP2: 誰かのために全力を尽くすの人を恨む人間なんていないよ。 No one would begrudge someone for giving their all for someone else. EP6: 龍眠拳!https://shy.fandom.com/wiki/Fists_of_the_Sleeping_Dragon There is also a live action series, but I think the anime is better.

House Rules (2022-07-23)

You may win only by playing a single card on your turn, after having said "UNO" on your last term
Except the winning card, cards that are exactly the same can be played at the same time.
If someone plays Draw 2 on you, you may play Draw 2 or Draw 4, passing the penalty to the next player.
If someone plays Draw 4 on you, you may play Draw 4, passing the penalty to the next player.
Whenever someone draws a card, the next player may not play any card until they have confirmed that the player drawing card(s) is ready. Playing without asking is "Impolite" and carries a penalty*
Whenever a player does something that leads to them having only one card left, they must say "UNO" at the same time of their action, else they receive a penalty*
CUT At anytime, a player may say "CUT" and play a card that is exactly the same as the top most card of the played pile. However, a player may not win by CUT'ing themself to play their last card.
*Penalty means draw 2 cards and lose a turn.

📒 Definitions

Moralism is a commitment that whenever applicable, decisions shall be made based on moral principles, and where such principles are missing, the set of principles shall be updated. Accordingly, a moralist does not necessarily believe that everyone shares the same moral principles, but each self-proclaimed moralist shall have a declared set of principles so that their decisions can be objectively judged for their self-compliance.
🧭 Moral Principles

  1. Non-aggression Don't hurt other people for fun.
  2. Honesty Don't lie to get what you want.
  3. Integrity Admit when you did something wrong.
  4. Respect Let people choose what they want when their choices do not prevent others from choosing.
  5. Peacemaking Stop bullies and help the victims. Report and seek help when something is wrong.
    The six stages of Moral Development https://www.simplypsychology.org/kohlberg.html
The human condition https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1808577835248071013 If most people can't be convinced by moral reasoning, then is it ethical to use social influence to help stop animal exploitation?
🍎 How to teach kids moral

  1. Moral Principles Tell them the moral principles and set clear expectations for behavior.
  2. Storytelling Tell stories that illustrate moral concepts.
  3. Perspective Taking Encourage them to consider the feelings and perspectives of others.
  4. Lead by Example Model the moral behavior you want the children to learn: Honesty, kindness, empathy, and respect.
  5. Teachable Moments Recognize everyday situations to impart moral lessons.
  6. Critical Thinking By encouraging them to consider the consequences of their actions on themselves and others. Encourage them to question, analyze, and reflect upon moral issues instead of accepting the rules at face value.
  7. Open Moral Reflection Encourage them to reflect on their own values and moral beliefs. Make it okay to discuss moral dilemmas, ethical issues, and their feelings.
  8. Positive Reinforcement Reinforce good behavior with praise, rewards, or privileges. Address misbehavior with constructive feedback and guidance.
  9. With Patience and Consistency Remember that teaching morals is a gradual process and be consistent in your messages and expectations. Recognize that children may make mistake and use them as opportunities for learning rather than punitive measures.
📌 Topics

  1. Adult moral violators "Do adult moral violators ever undrstand their violations?" I think some do and some don't. Those who understand would feel remorse.

"Is what I am doing
worth any credits?"

"If it is EPIC then
it worths credits."
EPIC Scoring is a guideline on setting credits for four activity types. These are quests that only happen when there is an active emergency. You get credits for each effortful task. (e.g. the amount of healing you did.) No maximum limit to amount of credits you can get per period. These are quests such as restocking emergency supplies, training, and emergency drills. There is a max per period. The max is based on the number of people that a community needs for each skill type. These are quests such as farming, cooking, mining, building shelters, and making and repairing essential tools. There is no maximum as long as there is a need to fill. These are quests that needs to be done periodically but not need to be done too often. This includes routine cleaning. The area to be explored is enumerated. You get credits per area explored. There is no maximum on how many areas you can explore per period. Administration quests happen only when there is something needs to be administrated. When there is a need, there is no maximum per period. You can get credits for making celebratory food, but there is a limit to how many you can make per person per period for credit. Stocking up for emergency supplies in preparation should just be a routine production quest. Emergency scoring should be for unpredictable and time-sensitive quests. I think it is easier to describe EPIC if the categories are different in how they are scored, not just as categories on what activities should be scored. Are there four different scoring schemes? Or just one general scoring equation?

I feel like there is no point for me to be "working", when I could work on the quest society or Magic Bakery. Midlife crisis XD

Evelyn: Luckily Magic Bakery is online. So switching is always an option. 😊
Ledia: Isn't that why Cardinal Quest is considered a quest? And the fact that you could get EXP is it meets Production in EPIC scoring. In other words, you ARE doing Magic Bakery quest. That doesn't really address the motivation issue. Even if the quest is qualified, it doesn't answer why I would be doing it. There are other things I could do with that time.
James: So you want to retire. That might be the word for it
LRRH: If you know what kind of gift you could make, would you want to make it? You are not here because you need to get paid. You are here because there is a gift you can make.
Ledia: By the way, in case people are not aware, we have started fighting the Serpent. The actual fight, not a trial.
Tanya: Tanya is aware of the fight and has joined Ledia's part as support.
Cardinal: The Serpent has 15/20 HP remaining. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.youtube.com/embed/QK-kOJs3aso","desc":"📺"}
Cardinal: The Serpent hits Ledia.
Tanya: Weak spot identified. Firing. The Serpent takes 1 damage. 14/20 HP remaining.
Tanya: The Serpent takes 1 damage. 13/20 HP remaining.
Cardinal: The Serpent hits Ledia.
Ledia: Accel Blade Storm. The Serpent takes 6 damages. 7/20 HP remaining.
Cardinal: The Serpent unleashes AE attack and hits both Ledia and Tanya. The party is KO'ed.
Cardinal: The Serpent heals itself by 2 HP. 9/22 HP remaining.
Evelyn: Evelyn joins the party. The party is revived.
Tanya: Activating trap. The Serpent takes 6 damages. 3/22 HP remaining.
Cardinal: The Serpent unleashes AE attack again. Ledia and Tanya are KO'ed. Evelyn is down to 1 hit point.
Tanya: I don't think we can finish it. We can't get through the last armor. We will ask Kiv for help.
Cardinal: The party recognized that the Serpent is getting hit but not taking damage.
Evelyn: I think the Serpent is Cleric class and has Protect on. 😖 Evelyn receives
Ledia: Can you dispel it? I can try. Evelyn roll with advantage please. Evelyn: ➖➕ 😅 Evelyn is recognized for Dispel Rank B. The Serpent's Protect effect has been dispelled.
Cardinal: The Serpent is confused.
Evelyn: Holy. Evelyn, how do you want to do this?
Evelyn: The holy light surrounds the Serpent, reaching deep into its cleric core, where its desire to protect had degenerated into one concerning only to protect itself because it had become alone. Protect. Evelyn casts Protect on the Serpent.
Evelyn: Through the spell, Evelyn passes her feeling to the Serpent, "You are not alone anymore, let's be friends and see the world outside." Cardinal: ➕➕
Cardinal: The Serpent accepts the Protect. The fight has ended. Serpant Cave is pacified. Evelyn obtained Summon White Serpent. Is this Pokemon? XD 😅
Evelyn: I try summoning the White Serpent.
Cardinal: The Write Serpent swirls above the KO'ed Ledia and Tanya then cast raise. Ledia and Tanya are now revived. A healer getting a healer pet. XD Maybe it will let others summon it also? The White Serpent curls around and behind Evelyn. It seems to only trust Evelyn at the moment. 😅
Ledia: @StarTree, Status?
StarTree: 9 quest hours are cleared today, 58 hrs remain!
Tanya: Next week we might need to follow up on Pylon Quest.
Ledia: But this is a good time to rest. This whole weekend. Ledia thanks all for making progress today.

@Wish
202207301016|LEGO Castle
202207121416|◀ July 30, 2022 Saturday 10:16 AM
Magic Bakery

Next week the 90th Anniversary LEGO Castle set will be out. Could we get it? Is it true that if we tag it with @Wish then it will be fulfilled?

Casey: Oh, and this is what I'm talking about: [Video]
Sasha: For the record I'm not complaining. Even though by volume we have more LEGO than boardgames. And we didn't do much about the last set that we got and built. And in terms of transferability, boardgames are much easier to give away as a set. And we don't even have an inventory of LEGOs, but now we do for boardgames. 😅
Zoey: Age 18+, why? XD
Sasha: Based on what happened to the pirate ship, if we get this it will just be displayed as a set. We won't be modifying it or playing it, and probably not taking pictures either. We won't be writing stories about it either. It will just be there, and "we have it." Just to be clear. I don't have a problem with that. I am just setting the expectation so people don't feel like they have to do something "make the set worth it". It is not there for any other purpose. It is just there for there sake.
LRRH: I still want a Magic Bakery LEGO build.
Ivy: I'm against getting more LEGO. Since... it is plastic. Why would it matter if we won't be throwing it away?
Tanya: These discussions. It tends to take us longer to discuss than the cost of getting them. Wouldn't it be best if we figure out why this set is special? There are many things and many LEGO sets, but Casey doesn't ask for everything but this. If we figure out why this is special, maybe we could find an alternative that is just as good.
Tanya: Casey, would you be satisfied if you just have the box? Or just a photo or a miniaturized box? You mean if we just print a photo of it and put it on the desk? Yes, or just having a section on the Blog with photos of LEGO sets that you ever thought of getting? XD 🤨 I have to think about it. This actually works...? XD
Tanya: Then let's try making such a node. A collection of LEGO set photos. Okay. I'll do that and see what happens by Aug 3rd.
Sasha: Wait. Then when you say you want to get the set, you don't actually look forward to building it? I guess not.
Sasha: And not for the minifigures and special pieces? I guess not. I feel they are not worth the price tag. I don't see myself as a collector and I am not trying to collect things. Then I don't get it. What is it you want from the set?
LRRH: Maybe Casey just wants to express the love for LEGO? You don't need to own it to express love. I don't feel very strongly at that explanation. It might be part of it. Sasha feels a little threatened because Casey would let go of the LEGO, then her collection of board games would become the biggest target. I don't think we have an agendar to get rid of everything. 😅
Zoey: If this works Tanya would be MVP XD

Mice & Mystics
202207301551|The Sewer
202207171841|◀ July 30, 2022 Saturday 3:51 PM
The Sewer

The Hero mice jumped down the drainage grate to the running water below. Although it saved them from injuries from the fall, the running water could very well be more than they could handle. This is a continuation of the Mice & Mystics game with Team Cheese Cake.

Cardinal: The splashes had barely stopped when the heroes find themselves surrounded by hungry roaches. Cardinal: The initiative order is Roaches, Nez, Collin, Filch, then Tilda. The game time is 0:40/5:00. Four of the roaches are in range to attack. (Nez): This can't be good. Cardinal: The four Roach attacks are: 1, 2, 2, 0. Nez roll for defense please. I can't use Protect because it is not my turn yet. Correct? Correct. Casey: (Nez Defense): Cheese, X, X, Shield. For the cheese roll, the Roach will immediate takes that, and the game clock becomes 0:50. The second Roach will take your other cheese and deals you one wound. This gives Tilda one cheese. The third Roach deals you two more wounds. You are KO'ed. Isn't there a rule that the monsters need to spread out? Yes there is! It is Page 16! Each minion will prioritize to attack the closest mouse that has not been attacked! With that rule you can't move them all at once. You need to move each minion and complete their attack. I'm sorry. I was mistaken. Nez was only attacked by one Roach. The time is now 0:50. Nez has one cheese and one poison marker. Nez is not KO'ed. The second Roach targets Collin. I already gave Collin cheese for initiative. 4 defense dice. Here we go... Sasha: (Collin Defense): X Shield X Shield. Just barely. The third Roach targets Filch. P4: (Filch defense): X X X. Filch takes two wounds. Tilda gets one cheese. (Tilda): I am not quite used to seeing Tilda get cheese when someone is hurt. 😖 I know. So sadistic XD The fourth Roach targets Tilda. Evelyn: (Tilda defense):X Cheese. Surge is triggered. The time is now 1:00 / 5:00 Filch takes two wounds.
Cardinal: As if the Roaches weren't enough, two Rat Warriors had followed the heroes down the sewer. It is now Nez's turn. (Nez): I want to use Protect, but that only works on my space. So we need to decide whether we are crossing the water now or getting out of the water first. I think if we we try to get out now we will waste too many turns. (Collin): Let's cross the water. Alright. I move one space, don't attack and use Protect.
Casey: Nez fends off the roaches as he started crossing the water. The current is carrying him downstream, but he is ready to protect his friends. (Collin): I also start crossing the water and I attack the Roach that is on Nez's space. If we don't finish that we don't have space for everyone... Sasha: (Collin Attack): Sword Sword Bow
⚔️
Sasha: Collin follows Nez's lead and elegantly KOs a Roach in the way. (Filch): I attack the roach behind Tilda because it might not catch up to us. Smart move. 💟 Ledia 😊 P4: (Filch Attack}: Sword, X Cardinal: (Roach Defense): X. The roach is KO'ed and Filch gets one cheese from his Pilfer skill.
⚔️
P4: Filch KO's the roach behind Tilda and dives to the same direction as Nez and Collin. While diving, he noticed a fishhook that might be useful. Good job tying in the special surge XD 💟 (Tilda): Actually I don't get P4's reason. If the Roach might not reach us in the next turn, why do we attack it first? Why aren't we attacking the one that will attack us for sure? 😅 Because if it comes too slowly, you would run out of targets to attack in the next term. That's DPS logic. Aggressive XD But Filch is almost out of HP. Next turn we would probably be attacked by three minions, so that would be Nez, Collin, and Filch. If we had KO'ed one more minion closest to us, Filch might be safe from attacks. Aren't you going to heal Filch? I can't use free action in water. 😖 But you could use an action to do First Aid. The card say you may use it as a free action. I would interpret that to mean in addition to using it as an action. That would be my interpretation. Now I also have dodge. If something comes at me I can dodge and be out of its range. I think Tilda will do what makes the most sense to her at the moment and attack the Roach closest to the group. (Everyone is out of range for First Aid, unless I use the Heal All scroll, that can heal anyone on the whole tile.) 😖 Tilda can't first aid because of the water current XD Evelyn: (Tilda Attack): Bow Bow 😖 I should have listened and shoot the farthe rat. 😖 XD Can we use Tanya's Foresight in this game? That's up to the group. Thinking of cheating already? XD I think we can see how far this goes.
Evelyn: Tilda swung at the closest roach but missed. She could barely catch up with the group and was worried about Filch. Now it is Rat Warriors' turn. The closer one moves first. It stays on land and attack Nez. Cardinal: (Rat 1 Attack): Sword. Casey: (Nez Defense): X
Cardinal: The rat warriors close it. One of them swings and hits Nez. Nez takes one would. Tilda gets one cheese. I have two rule corrections to announce. 1) When a roach steals a cheese, the cheese goes to the clock. 2) When a hero rolls cheese, the clock does not get any cheese. The clock gets cheese when a minion rolls cheese attacking or defending. One more correction: 3) If an attack roll has no hit, there is no defense roll. There are too many rules. XD The corrected rules will start now. The closest roach moves in to attack Nez. I've just realized that Nez can be KO'ed right now. Cardinal: (Roach Attack) X Cheese. The time is now 1:10/5:00. The second closet roach moves in and attack Collin. Cardinal: (Roach Attack) Bow Bow. No hit. The third remaining roach moves in to attack Filch. Does Filch dodge? Can Filch dodge upstream? The normal movement rules apply. Filch cannot dodge upstream or use dodge to get out of water. You can dodge downstream, but you have to make sure to get out of water in your turn. I will try to just defend. 🙏 Gutsy. Why don't you dodge? Because I have cheese, so the roach will have to hit me twice. I think that is rare since I roll three defense dice. That is 7.5%. But if you dodge, there is 0%. But I lose a cheese for sure if I dodge. Let's just roll. We don't need to have a perfect game. We can be wrong. I don't blame anyone if I am KO'ed in this game. May I know why P4 wants to stay in that space? I think the roach won't hit me so I don't want to lose my cheese. Fair enough. Cardinal: (Roach Attack}: Sword, Cheese. The time is now 1:20 / 5:00. P4: (Filch Defense): X Shield Cheese. I nominate P4 for Combat Instinct. P4 roll with advantage please. P4: ➖➕ P4 is recognized for Combat Instinct Rank B.
P4: Filch fends off the roach attacking him. I am going to move out of water and hit the Rat real hard. Casey: (Nez climbing out of water}: Crit. YES!! (Nez Attacking): Sword Sword X X. Cardinal: (Rat Defense): Shield X.
Casey: Nez climbs out of water and quickly rolls off so he could make use the full length of his hammer. With a clean sweep, the Rat Warrior is knocked into the water and flushed away. If you could choose, you should leave Rat Warriors for Filch. He can take a cheese off the clock if he KO's a rat. Could've told me earlier. 🤷‍♀️ But Nez wouldn't have known that or trust Filch to consider that teamwork. So in terms of the story, Nez didn't do anything out of place.I think it is better if don't play the rules so much as players. If you want that kind of teamwork, your characters should know each other better first. As much as I want to see cool teamwork. I agree with Sasha. I think it would play faster if you do what you think your character would do. So Collin will try to KO the roach that attacked him, then get out of water. Sasha: (Collin Attack): Sword, Cheese, X Cardinal: (Roach Defense): Shield Sasha: (Collin climbing out): Crit
Sasha: Collin pushes the roach off and climbs out of water. (Filch): I'll dive then climb out of water. P4: (Filch Search): X. I couldn't get the fishhook.😢
Evelyn: While Nez and Collin were climbing out of water, Filch dived down to get a fishhook. Filch, do you climb out of water? I want to get the fishhook. Then just stay in the water.
Tanya: Maginos says to Tilda, "Let's get out of the water first. Filch will be fine. We can fight off the roaches going to him." I stay in the water.
P4: In the water, Filch was having trouble unhooking the first hook, but he is sure he will get it soon. The curret carries Filch down one space. Filch is now at the edge of the tile. And it is the Rat Warrior's turn. We have some tactical problem because Filch has a bonus against the Rat Warriors but we are not using it. Everyone has the same odds at searching. But Nez and Collin are best at actually KO'ing anything and only Tilda can heal. So searching goes to Filch. But for each cheese you remove from the wheel, you gain a whole round for searching. So if there is a Rat Warrior, just let Filch KO it first. Let's continue and have Maginos explains the tactic at some point. Cardinal: (Rat Movement): 3. (Rat attacks Nez): Sword Cheese. The time is now 1:30 / 5:00. Casey: (Nez Defense): Shield. Phew.
Cardinal: The remaining rat warrior leaps out of the water to cut Nez with is jagged knife. Nez blocks it with its long hammer. The Rat Warrios moves up in intiative each turn. Next time it will have its turn after Collin. It is Tilda's turn now. Tilda tries to climb out of water. Evelyn: (Tilda climbing out}: Crit 😃
Tanya: As Tilda helped Maginos climb out of the water, Maginos tells Tilda to get ready to cast cure or fortify. "The Prince should have what you need." So I would take Collin's cheese and get the ability Fortify, immediately cast it, then attack something? Yes, if Sasha let's you. Princie Collin would have no reason not to help. Then I get Fortify, cast it, and swing at the closet roach. Collin and Tilda now have no cheese. Tilda roll for attack please. Evelyn: (Tilda Attack): Sword Sword X. Cardinal: (Roach Defense): Cheese. The time is now 1:40 / 5:00
💠
Evelyn: Following Maginos's advice, Tilda casts Fortify and KO's a roach. Cardinal: (Roach Attack Nez): Sword Sword. Casey: (Nez Defense): X X. Sorry.
Cardinal: With his long hammer still locked with the Rat Warrior, Nez was hit hard by the Roach and fell. Nez is KO'ed. The time is now 2:40 / 5:00 It was my fault. I should have started healing. 😭 Cardinal: (Roach Attack Collin): Sword Cheese. The time is now 2:50 / 5:00 Sasha: (Collin Defense): Shield Cheese Cheese X X It is Collin's turn. Since Roaches have less defense but hit just as hard as a Rat, we should attack all the Roaches first.
Maginos: Seeing that Prince Collin was distracted by the fallen Nez and the roaches, Maginos directs Prince Collin's attention to the Rat Warrior. "Prince Collin, behind you!" The Rat Warrior will attack you next. if it rolls cheese, there will be a surge immediately. You can't raise Nez when there are enemies on the tile. Tanya receives So which is it? Are we leaving the Rat Warrior for Filch or not? This is not the time for it because after surge, there is no cheese on the clock for Filch to take. But this is also the chance for Filch to take one cheese back from the clock. We have to leave a minion alive so we can search. This is so confusing XD If you do that you are risking a surge, and you will have to fight them off without Nez. I don't know anymore!
Sasha: Prince Collin turns to defend from the Rat Warrior and shouts, "Filch, where are you? Nez is down! We need you here!" I give order to Filch to Search. OMG it is chaos XD P4: (Filch Search): P4 is scared 😖 It's okay, it's just a game. Evelyn casts Protect. Evelyn receives P4: (Filch Search): X 😭 Cardinal: (Rat Attack Collin): Sword Sword. Sasha: (Collin Defense): Shield, Cheese Cheese, X X. The Rat Warrior deals one wound to Collin. P4 wants to give up on the fishhook. 😭 Filch needs to get out of the water. Or he will be KO'ed at the end of this turn. P4: (Filch climbs out of water): Success. P4: Please let me protect everyone. (Filch Attacks Rat): Sword Sword. Cardinal: (Rat Defense): Shield Cheese
Cardinal: Filch climbs out of the water and KO's the Rat warrior, but more Rat Warriors has arrived. The time is now 3:00 / 5:00. It is not Tilda's turn, then the minions. This is pretty intense. I think they are failing. XD I think if we fall back the Rats can't reach us within one turn. Collin can't move yet, and fortify is off. Can Evelyn take my Desperate Rescue card and revive Nez? Yes. And it doesn't count as an action or free action. Then I will go to Filch, heal him, take the rescue card, raise Nez, and attach a roach. Please also take two of my cheese. Evelyn: (Tilda Attacks Roach): Sword X X Cardinal: (Roach Defense): Shield.
Evelyn: In desperation, Tilda did she could think of to revive Nez and heal Filch. Filch is now at 2 hit points. Nez is revived with an archievement: Poisonmaster. We missed the chance to get Roachmaster 😭 Too many rules XD It is now Roaches's turn. Cardinal: (Roach Attack Collin): X X. Cardinal: (Roach #2 Attack Nez): Sword Sword Casey: (Nez Defense) Shield. The roach deals one would to Nez. Tilda gets one cheese. It is Nez's turn. May I take Tilda's armor? I would allow it, since Tilda would have taken it off while rescuing Nez. 🙏
Casey: Nez fixes up his armor and brings his hammer down onto the roach next to Prince Collin. Casey: (Nez Attack): Sword Sword Sword Cheese, Cardinal: (Roach Defense). X. The Roach is KO'ed. Abilities normally don't take an action unless the card says so. At the begining when Nez used Protect, he could have attacked a Roach also. That would have changed the outcome a lot. Should we restart the Sewer? With me having armor. That's up to the party. I'm ok with that as long as we are still only doing one game session per week. I don't think we can finish the remaining tiles in 2 game hours. I think that is possible if you skip the kitchen tile. There are only two tiles left. I think that also means we don't need to get the fishhook. I want to play every tile...😖 I see. Okay. Let's start Tile 6 over. With Nez in leather armor. Could you start over tomorrow instead of next weekend? XD Tanya? The start of a week is Sunday. If you play tomorrow, the next session will be next Sunday. The technicalities XD Okay, we'll restart Tile 6 tomorrow. Hopefully we'll do it right!

Pink dolphins https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_river_dolphin Horses are like people. Some like to be ridden on. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4sECCW010kU https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/sqnld8/do_horses_really_enjoy_being_ridden/ I'm pretty sure they don't like "to be ridden." It is more like they are trained to let people ride on them or they like the specific rider. Isn't it more like holding hands? You can actually like holding hands to feel a friend's presence. That also depends on the person. XD It depends on the horse, but it is like having a bird sitting on your head or shoulder. Some people naturally likes that company. And most horses do not. Human are heavy. XD I don't know about horses but if an animal clings to me I would feel grateful. There is a species of jellyfish that is immortal because it can make itself young again.

Maybe we should do it like Bingo. But then what do you do when you find a more funny video in the same category? Does the original poster lose their point? How about each person can have one point per category? Then under the category of kindness, how many XP can one get for collecting examples of dogs being kind? I think it helps to see a variety of different situations even when they are all dogs. I think my point is we should focus on original content that can't be found elsewhere. You can easily search for and find cute animal videos so we don't need to also have a list here. I think we need to define what abuse is to continue. Is there a specific case where you want an XP or a link removed? I haven't checked yet. I think the current scoring is fine because the person linking is still spending time linking. If they think the new addition is spamming they won't link it. But there is an incentive to link: you get animal icon XP that shows up on your profile. Then I need to add more frog videos. XD #howtolevelupyourfamiliar I think the guideline of one link per category per animal per person is ok. Then how do I level up my Toad's intelligence twice? XD That is just a toad XP. There is no toad intelligence XP. Your toad could get recognized for being intelligent when you use it in a game. You don't need to level up the intelligence of your familiar. But if you have animal icons on your profile you could make a case that you are familiar with those animals or animals in general, and you have advantage befriending them. Now we can wait for the abuse of it happens. XD We get way more XP from just discussing than linking to videos. XD

202207311344|The Sewer (Attempt 2)
202207171841|◀ July 31, 2022 Sunday 1:44 PM
The Sewer

The Hero mice jumped down the drainage grate to the running water below. Although it saved them from injuries from the fall, the running water could very well be more than they could handle. This is a continuation of the Mice & Mystics game with Team Cheese Cake.

Do we reroll for initiative? Yes. The new turn order is: Nez, Filch, Roaches, Collin, Tilda. The time is 1:40 / 5:00. For my understanding is there an agenda to make the game playable without the game components? There is no such plan. But you are posting the card text online. That's just because it is easier to reference. So do I get credits if I post more info as you play? Yes, but I think you only get one point per day. Last time StarTree listed all reward cards for Dungeon! and got 2 points over two days. I guess that is better than nothing. Nez goes first. Wow the initiative order makes a huge difference. Now basically we have free search. I start moving across the water and search. Casey: (Nez Search}: Success.
Casey: Nez started crossing the water but found something entangling him. It was a length of thread. So he kept pulling... The party has obtained the Fishhook and Thread. (See Page 18 for rules) Hey, am I getting this right? I can immediately hook across the water, and we don't need to roll for climbing out. Major difference. (Nez Movement): 3. I move toward the top left corner because the roaches on the top right might not reach us.
Casey: Nez tosses the fishhook to the other end of the water. "Grab the thread!" he said. The party took the thread. With the hook firmly notched, Nez got out of the water and charged at the roach on the left. P4: (Filch Movement): 1. I'll attack the one that Nez charged at. (Filch Attack): Sword X. Cardinal: Since Filch is higher than the roach in the turn order, the roach loses its only defense dice. The roach is KO'ed. And Filch gets one cheese for KO'ing something.
P4: As Nez charged at the roach, Filch dashed there and KO's Nez's target before Nez.
Casey: "Oh no, you little!" Nez is angry at Filch for stealing his KO. Zoey: XD Cardinal: It is the roaches turn. I will move the minions according to distance from the heroes.The first one to move is the one on the lower left corner. (Roach #1 Movement): 3. (Roach Attacks Collin): Cheese Cheese. The time is now 0:50 / 5:00 Cardinal: Next is the roach on the lower left. (Roach #2 Movement): 2. (Roach Attacks Tilda): Sword X. Tilda roll for defense please. Evelyn: (Tilda Defense): Shield. 🙏 Cardinal: (Roach #3 Movement): 3. (Roach Attacks Collin): Sword X. Sasha: (Collin Defense): Cheese X X. Cardinal: The roach steals the cheese Collin gets. The time is now 1:00 / 5:00. 2 rat warriors have arrived. They spawn at Upper Left and Lower Right. (Roach #4 Movement): 1. It is out of range to attach anyone. It is now Collin's turn. Can we count on Filch KO'ing four roaches to get roach master and turn back the clock? If Filch is in position I can give order for him to attack. Then Filch can attach twice each round. But in this turn I need to KO a roach or Tilda can't move out. Then she will be swamped by minions. Ok. Sasha: (Collin Attack): Bow Bow Bow... Evelyn please KO a roach then move out of the water. That is not very gentlemanly.
Sasha: In the water, Prince Collin and Tilda were being swamped by the roaches. Prince Collin takes Maginos from Tilda and climbs out of water with the fishhook. At the same time, two Rat Warriors have caught up, one at the far corner, the other came down right in the middle of Nez and Filch. Sasha: (Collin Movement): 1. I move toward Nez. Evelyn: (Tilda Attack): Sword Cheese. Cardinal: (Roach Defense): Shield. I can't move. 😖
Evelyn: As Tilda tried to climb the thread, the roaches bumper her off balance. Tilda was being washed toward the dark end of the pipe, but still holding onto the thread. "Prince Collin..." Tilda was about to tell him to move on without her, but determined that she must also stay alive to help the prince. May I use dodge to get onto the rope to help Tilda? You don't need to do that until a roach moves to Tilda. Okay. P4 💟 Cardinal: It is now Rat Warriors turn. (Rat UL Attack Nez): Sword X. Casey: (Nez Defense): Shield Cheese. Cardinal: (Rat LR Move): 3
Cardinal: Nez blocks the attack from one Rat Warrior, as the other Rat Warrior jumps into the water to attack Tilda. I'm a step too late. 😢 Sorry. If you dodge earlier you could have prevented that.
P4: Filch knew that he was a step too late, but dashes toward Tilda. P4 roll for Kindness please. P4: (Filch Kindness): Success. Cardinal: (Rat Attacks Tilda): Cheese Bow. The time is now 1:10 / 5:00
Cardinal: Although Filch couldn't reach in time, his movement surprised the Rat Warrior and made it hesitate. Save me, P4 😳 Casey: Um... With Filch moved away, now Nez can't take a step back to use the full power of his long hammer... (Nez Attack): Sword Sword X. Cardinal: (Rat Defense): Shield, X.
Casey: The Rat was too close to Nez for him to use his hammer. So Nez trips the Rat and shoves it down the drain. I think I should stay behind because my defense is not all that great. Three roaches will go for Filch though. Then I guess I will walk in front of Prince Collin and give him all my cheese. Hey, I've just realized that I should have gotten Set Trap instead. It is supper strong ability. The minions can lose a turn. Yes. We should prioritize leveling up Nez then. For my movement, I'll leap into the water ahead of Tilda, so the current will carry me back to where Tilda is. And I attack a roach. (Filch Attack Roach): Sword Sword. I get one cheese for KO'ing the roach.
P4: Filch leaps from the thread and dives upstream of Tilda, KO'ing a roach while doing so. Fancy. Cardinal: (Roach #1 Attacks Filch): Sword Cheese. The time is now 1:20 / 5:00. P4: (Filch Defense): Shield Shield X. I use the cloak to blink to the next roach so it doesn't attack Tilda. Cardinal: (Roach #2 Attacks Filch): Sword Cheese. The time is now 1:30 / 5:00. P4: (Filch Defense): Shield X X. I blink to the third roach. You are out of range for the Rat. May I change the order of Blink? Cardinal: I would say no. Since you wouldn't know if you could block so much. (Roach #3 Attacks Filch): Sword Cheese. The time is now 1:40 / 5:00. P4: (Filch Defense): Shield Cheese X. I blink back to the space with Tilda, and use my free action to give her all my cheese.
P4: As the roaches were about to attack, Filch blinked and blocked each of them. It happened so fast it looked like a swirl of black mist. Epic. I walk to Nez's space, order Filch to attack the rat, then give my remaining cheese to Nez. P4: (Filch Attacks Rat): Sword Cheese. Cardinal: (Rat Defense): X.
⚔️
Sasha: Seeing that the Rat Warrior was confused by Filch's acrobatic moves, Prince Collin sees an opening for Filch to strike, "Now, Filch!"
P4: Filch immerges from the water and KO's the Rat Warrior. The time is now 1:30 / 5:00. It is Tilda's turn. I move behind Nez and what should I do? I think search. Evelyn: Okay. (Tilda Search): Success. I drew a warrior helmet. Should I give it to Collin or Nez? Let's give Collin so he gets us cheese when he defends. You are higher on the turn other though. I'll take a step back.
Evelyn: With Filch fending off the minioins, Tilda got out of the water. So I take one step back, gather cheese, get Set Trap, and uses it right? The Set Trap ability is not as strong as you think. The chance to stun a minion is only 1/6. Casey: You're right. Then I take a step back and search. (Nez Search): X. Let's say Nez got the helmet for Collin. I don't think we need to RP everything. Ok. 😅 P4: (Filch Attack): Cheese Cheese. I missed 😭 Should we level up Filch? If we are relying on him to KO almost everything. What abilities can Filch have? Knife Strike, Energy Rush, Find. All of his abilities are super strong XD Let's get Find first, then Knife Strike when we have more knifes. We are not in a hurry if I can tank the roaches. Okay. Filch goes to the the same space behind Collin and takes Nez's cheese to get Find.
P4: Filch fends off the Roach and gets out of water. Cardinal: (Roach #1 Attacks Collin): X X. (Roach #2 Attacks Nez): Sword, X. We miscounted!! XD We were too close to the water 😖 Casey: (Nez Defense): X X. Cardinal: Nez loses one cheese. The time is now 1:40 / 5:00. (Roach #3 Moves): 2. (Roach #3 Attacks Filch): Sword Cheese. The time is now 1:50 / 5:00. P4: (Filch Defense): Shield, Cheese, X.
Cardinal: The heroes got out of the water, but the roaches swiftly followed them. I take cheese from Nez, equip the helmet, and order for Filch to attack. P4: (Filch Attack): Sword Cheese. Filch is one Roach short of getting Roachmaster badge. Filch has two cheese now.
P4: Filch KO's the roach following him with his tail. Evelyn: I go behind Collin properly and search 😖. (Tilda search: X) Then I give Filch my cheese. I will go behind Collin and search also. (Nez Search: X). And give my cheese to Filch. I feel like I wasted cheese to give order. I could have just searched. No, I think you did it right. You should leave just one Roach attacking. Should I Find or attack? You should use Find, I think. Right now it doesn't really matter if more Rats are spawned. I go behind Collin and search. (Filch Search: X). Cardinal: (Roach #1 Attack Collin: Sword X) Sasha: (Collin Defense): Shield Cheese X X). Cardinal: (Roach #2 Attacks Collin: Sword, Sword) Sasha: (Collin Defense): Cheese X X X). The roach takes two cheese from Collin. The time is now 2:10 / 5:00. Two Rats has spawned.
Cardinal: As the heroes are fending off the roaches, two more Rat Warriors had caught up. I retrieve the fishhook, then attack the roach on my space. (Collin Attack: Sword Sword Sword). Move 1 space toward tthe Rat, and give my cheese to Filch. (Roach defense: Cheese). The roach is KO'ed but the time is now 2:20 / 5:00. The games rules make us do thing that do not make sense in the story. We are taking a long time to fight instead of escaping. 😅 I know XD Evelyn: I will help look for a knife for Filch. (Tilda Search: X). Cardinal: (Rat #1 Attacks Collin: Cheese X.) The time is now 2:30 / 5:00 (Collin Defense: Shield Shield Shield Shield.) Cardinal: (Rat #2 Move: 2)
Cardinal: In the sewer, the heroes are trying the escape but the Rat Warriors are chasing closely. Prince Collin poses himself as rearguard fending off the Rat Warriors and Nez carrying Maginos leads the way to the next area. Nice save for the story. XD Now it makes sense 😊 Yes, Good Job, Cardinal! I guess I can keep searching then? We are cutting close to the 3 hr mark though. We are still trying to let Filch KO all of them right? Yes... hopefully we find a knife soon. Casey: Alright then. (Nez Search: X). Should I attack the roach first or the Rat Warrior? Step to my space to attach the roach. Then on my turn I will command you to attack the Rat Warriror on my space, then I move one space so the other Rat Warrior will target me. P4: 💟 (Filch Attack Roach: Sword, X) Filch is now the Roachmaster. The time is now 2:30 / 6:00. I give Collin one cheese. I think I miscounted. I can't move closer to the Rat unless I jump into the water... Oh, I can use the fishhook. I command Filch to attack. P4: (Filch Attacks Rat: Sword Cheese.) Filch has 9 cheese XD Cardinal: (Rat Defense: Shield.) Cardinal: (Rat #1 Attacks Filch: Cheese Cheese.) The time is now 2:40 / 6:00. (Rat #2 Attacks Collin: Sword X.) Sasha: (Collin Defense: Shield Cheese X X.)
Cardinal: The Rat Warriors had caught up to the group. One of them got pass Collin, but was fended off by Filch. Friendly warning: Next time Filch attack is the last time he will have the initiative advantage over the Rat Warriors. Yes. and it is now Tilda's turn.
Evelyn: Running along Nez and Maginos, Tilda considered if she should help Prince Collin and Filch, but she couldn't get a clear aim, especially not while running. Evelyn: If we move to the corner, there is a chance the Rats won't catch up, I think. I move to the further corner and search. (Tilda Search: Success). I got a bow that Filch can use! I'll give it to Filch first then move. 💟 Casey: I'll search then move to where Tilda is. (Nez Search: X). (Nez Move: 1) I can't even get there... Should I get energy rush now and use it? This is the last round the Rats will roll one fewer defense dice. I say yes. P4: I will decide after the first attack. (Filch Attack: Sword Cheese) Cardinal: (Rat Defense: Shield.) P4: I get and use Energy Rush and attack again. (Filch Attack: Sword Sword) Cardinal: (Rat Defense: Cheese). The Rat is KO'ed, the time is still 2:40 / 6:00 I give Collin one cheese and move away from Tilda. Cardinal: (Rat Attacks Collin: X X). I command Filch to shoot the Rat. P4: (Filch Ranged Attack: Cheese X X) I move in front of Filch and retrieve the fishhook. Evelyn: I search. (Tilda Search: Success) I found an even stronger bow. (Move: 2). I move toward Filch and give the bow to him. Casey: (Nez Search: Success) Umm... I got a Treachery card: They know we're here. I move closer to the door. Cardinal: (Rat Attacks Collin: Sword Sword). Sasha: (Collin Defense: Shield Shield X X).
Cardinal: The Rat Warrior swung at Prince Collin strongly. Prince Collin blocked it with this shield but the loud clang echoed through the tunnel. P4: I equip the Accurate Bow and fire. (Filch Ranged Attack: Bow-Crit, Bow, Cheese). (Rat Defense: Shield, X). The time is now 1:30 / 5:00. How do you want to do this?
P4: Filch takes the moment when the Rat's sword hit Prince Collin's shield, and KO's the Rat Warrior from the shadow of the shield.
Tanya: Maginos say, "They know we are here. We better be prepared before exiting this tunnel." I think it is worth using all my four cheese to use energy rush and find to look for armor for Tilda. You can only use one ability per turn. Give me one cheese then I can command you to use find. That's still two abilities in the same turn. Then I use energy rush to search. That's an expensive search. I don't want Tilda to get hurt. Filch needs to roll for kindness. (Filch Kindness: X) 😢
Cardinal: For a moment, Filch's kinder self worried about Tilda and wanted to find her an armor peace before exiting the tunnel. But the more selfish part of Filch thought, "Nah, she's a healer. she could heal herself. If I search for something I would just keep it for myself." P4, you may still decide to search, but if you find something Filch won't give it to Tilda or anyone. This is really hard to decide. What should I do? I think it is too expense to spend two cheese just to search. Just let Collin search. What I'm getting is that since an attack doesn't count as an ability, On Filch's turn Filch could have searched and let Collin command him to attack the Rat. If he misses, it is just another round of search anyway. 😳 If there is one thing I don't like about this game, it would be how the rules really goes against the situation. 😅 Sasha: Then I'll search. If I don't find anything I will give Tilda my armor. (Collin Search: X)
Sasha: Following Maginos's advice, Prince Collin gives his armor piece to Tilda.
Evelyn: "I can't possibly take that, Prince Collin. You're the most important." Tilda said.
Sasha: "We're all important," said Prince Collin, "All of us must escape. I'm still yound and inexperienced. I'm going to make many mistakes. Please stay by my side and watch over me."
Evelyn: Tilda felt that Prince Collin felt bad for leaving her in the water earlier, and takes the armor... Evelyn: ... But what she really wants is her own armor back from Nez. The piece was so small, Nez has been wearing it like a tank top. Zoey: XD Stylistically, Nez should wear the helmet. I suppose that would also work in terms of game mechanics since he will be doing the most searching the way you have been playing. Can we afford another cheese on the clock to search and shuffle our gear? Then Filch can try his Find ability.
Casey: "That can't be right, I'll give the lady her armor back. It is too small for me anyway." Nez said. And started taking off what is not, but looks like bikini armor as he had been wearing it."
Sasha: Seeing that, Prince Collin puts his leather armor back on and takes off his helmet for Nez instead. "I suppose this will be more of your liking." Evelyn: (Search: Success) I got the Trick: Intense Cowering. The time is now 2:40 / 6:00. Casey: I put on the helmet, gave Tilda my leather armor and search (Search: X). What's up with my luck? P4: I move to the door and search. (Search: X).
P4: As Nez hands the armor piece back to Tilda, Filch says, "You really think the lady wants it back after you have worn it on your stinky body?" Zoey: What's that for? XD That's RP. 🙂 Can P4 get a FATE point for being mean? They she can use that for kindness when she really needs it. I would allow it, but this chitchat is not enough for a compel to earn such credit. XD
Casey: Nez was irritated, but having seen what Filch could do during the last fight, especially the crazy black mist move that blocked ALL of the roaches, after heroically leaping back into the water to save Tilda, Nez had found new respect for Filch who stole his KO at first. Nez knew that even in his prime time, he was never as good as Filch in fighting. Filch was at a completely different level. "We're all important," said Nez, repeating Prince Collin's rhetoic, "And I bet we all stink." Even though he doesn't explicitely say so, everyone can feel his respect of Filch from his tone. Ledia: Bravo! Evelyn: I like how P4 turns an unsuccessful roll into an opportunity to chitchat. 💟
Evelyn: Tilda was actually hesitate at first, but takes the armor pieces with a smile. Sasha: (Search: Success) I got the Party Item Disguises. I don't know if this is good or bad. Don't we want Rat Warriors so we could reduce the clock cheese? I think at the start of an encounter, having minions plus rat warriours might be a bit too much. Is it okay if we see Rat Warriors will spawn so I can RP something now? Tanya: **Reads ahead.** I think that's fine. ** Looks at the next Encounter Card.** There will be Rats. Actually I can't think of how to roleplay that. If you can think of something, be my guest. We can just ignore the RP if we can't think of something. Then I put back on my armor and open the next tile.
Evelyn: The mice are have reached the end of the sewer, where an dark opening leads to another area. They carefuly steps through the opening to face the danger that awaits... Good game, everyone! We continue next Sunday! Sasha thanks all for the wonderful game.

👨🏿: "Defining a hoarder is problematic as well. If I'm willing to save for those times when food may not be easily accessible, does that make me a hoarder? Perhaps it does. But does that make me evil?" Suppose there is a situation where hoarding is causing poverty. What is a solution based on compassion? What do you propose a compassionate person do to resolve the situation? When a store decides to limit the purchase of toilet paper to 1 set per person, the solution type is enforcement. : Enforcing a limit of 1 set per person is a compassionate solution, especially for an item like toilet paper. Sure, someone can buy 10 sets, but then 9 potential others miss out. Stores are typically restocked at least once per week, so to buy for 10 weeks is excessive. Suppose Ann can't get toilet paper because people are hoarding. Bob proposes to Ann this solution: Wait for the store to open and buy it as soon as it opens. Is this solution based on compassion? : It's the best practical advice because the other option is to break into the store. I am not asking whether that is practical. I am asking whether it is a solution based on compassion. I am still trying to pinpoint whether your definition of compassion has an objective meaning or if it is self-serving. What is a line that Ann can cross to violate compassion? : Being compassionate makes for a better version of myself so yes it is self serving, but It is also essential for relating well to everything around me which is actually more valuable to me. By self-serving I meant your definition. When someone else says they don't care about others and hoard toilet paper so that the next person gets none, is that an act of compassion? : People don't hoard in order to prevent others from having. Anyone doing that is not hoarding. Hoarding is saving for a rainy day. We know many who refuse to do that. Many live for today with no thought of tomorrow. Why should being proactive be demonized?
The reply has several fallacies. In my example I showed that competition is a solution type, where a person who didn't get enough would try to go earlier (race) to get what they need. Racing or competiting is not a solution based on compassion. LRRH: Instead of admitting that there are responses not based on compassion, the tweeter denies that there are other motivations of hoarding (No True Scotsman fallacy). LRRH: Being proactive and being compassionate are not the same. A selfish person can also be proactive (Black-or-white fallacy). LRRH: Common definition of hoarding is not only "saving for a rainy day." To restrict its meaning to avoid admitting that hoarding can be the result of selfishness is moving the goal post (Special Pleading fallacy).

Loaded Question

💣 Loaded Question  202208011031202208011031|📌

Definition

Asking a question that has a presumption built into it so that it can't be answered without appearing guilty.

💣 Loaded Question is


Claim: I am anti-hierarchy and I support direct democracy.
Question: When will you stop using majority rule to rob the minority?
A loaded question requires a false assumption of guilt. In this example, the question is loaded if the claimant did not actually use majority rule to rob the minority. If the claimant did in fact do so, then the question is not loaded.

🐣 Loaded Question is not


Claim: I am anti-hierarchy and I support direct democracy.
Question: Direct democracy includes the use of majority rule to rob the minority. It is a type of up-side down pyramid hierachy. How do you be anti-hierarchy and support direct democracy at the same time?
Asking for a contradiction be resolved is not a loaded question. In this example, the questioner shows the contradiction by disclosing their definition of the term, then asks the claimant to clarify or disclose their definitions.

202208011038|🌓 Black-or-white {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202208011038","music":""}

Black-or-White fallacy tends to group concepts into good or evil categorically without a middle ground or without considerating variation of a concept. Its effects include classifying a good behavior as bad and vice versa.

Definition

Where two alternative states are presented as the only possibilities, when in fact more possibilities exist.
~ Logical Fallacy
Solutions

If the thinker is unaware of their black-or-white thinking, informing them what it is might be all it takes for them to reconsider. By reconsidering, terms that have collapsed into the same meaning can have their own meaning again. That gives the thinker much more vocabulary to work with, which allows them address finer details in a discussion.

☀️ Inform


To some people, informing them about black-or-white thinking is all it takes for them to correct themselves.
Effect 1: Missing Neutral

When Black-or-white fallacy is used, the neutral ground can be missing entirely. Take the following for example:

Evil


Malice

Neutral


Apathy

Good


Compassion
Black-or-white fallacy may eliminate the neutral ground. In the example above, the thinker would need to classify Apathy as either evil or good, which gives two possible results.

Black-or-White

Apathy is Evil


"If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the problem."

Logically Correct

Apathy is Neutral


"People who are apathetic are neither showing malice nor compassion."

Black-or-White

Apathy is Good


"A person who does not help people in need is still a compassionate person."
Effect 2: Missing Mixed Categories

The effect of Black-or-white fallacy can permeate among the concepts that the thinker has put in the same category. For example, a thinker who considers lawful actions are good and compassionate actions are good, may then conclude by composition fallacy that all lawful acts are compassionate acts.

Without

Black-or-white thinking


An action can be:
a) lawful and compassionate;
b) lawful and not compassionate;
c) unlawful but compassionate;
d) unlawful and not compassionate.

With

Black-or-white fallacy


An action can only be:
a) lawful and compassionate;
b) lawful and not compassionate;
c) unlawful but compassionate;
d) unlawful and not compassionate.

Mentions

20221204 Tweet
Effect 3: Evasive Rhetorics

Because Black-or-white fallacy eliminates some conceptual categories, when such thinker is shown an example of something that is evil within a concept that they have categorized as good, they may simply ignore the example.

Without

Black-or-white thinking


"There could be people subjected to a tax they do not agree with. To ensure that a program is funded by people who agree, donation can be used instead."

With

Black-or-white fallacy


"It is voluntary to live in a country that passes taxes by majority rule. So if a tax passes, it has the people's voluntary consent."
In their rhetorics, they ignore the cases where a person is trapped in a country. To the victim who is trapped, the effect of their action is oppression. To them, it is compassion.
Effect 4: Distortion of Justice

Combining the effects above, Black-or-White fallacy can lead to distortion of justice, which can be unintentional. A person who would qualify as a victim in non-black-or-white thinking could be disqualified as a victim. An action that would qualify as oppression could be classified as an act of compassion.

Without

Black-or-white thinking


202208211241|Stewardism: People who are born within a country have a right to opt out with their share of the country.

With

Black-or-white fallacy


It is an act of compassion to rule over a minority who has not opted out.

Logical Fallacy

Cherry-Picking

202208011050|PIN 202208011050

Definition

Cherry-picking data clusters to suit an argument, or finding a pattern to fit a presumption.
~ Logical Fallacy
⭐ Causes and Countermeasures

Cherry-picking can be caused by confirmation bias, where a person looks for examples to support instead of to evaluate their argument. In doing so, they may unintentionally ignore counter examples to their argument. A truth-seeking person will reevaluate their conclusion when they are .

Truth-seeker


✅ Reevalutes given counter evidence
✅ Seeks a correct conclusion
✅ Derives alternate solutions

Follower


⚠️ Ignores counter evidences
⚠️ Defends existing conclusion
✅ Accepts alternate solutions

Manipulator


⚠️ Ignores evidences
⚠️ Defends existing conclusion
⚠️ Rejects alternate solutions
☀️ Truth-seeker

A truth-seeker cares more about finding a correct solution than to defend their existing belief. When they are presented counter evidence that they have not considered, they take that into consider and reevaluate for a more correct conclusion.

A truth-seeker...


✔️ Knows weaknesses of their conclusion
✔️ Shows how they check correctness
✔️ Ready to discard wrong conclusions
✔️ Has a record of previous considerations

A truth-seeker does not...


❌ Hide weaknesses of their conclusion
❌ Hide how they check correctness
❌ Avoid juding their own conclusions
❌ Dismiss counter evidence
The simplest countermeasure to a truth-seeker is to simply show them counter evidence.
🌊 Follower

A follower is someone who holds onto a conclusion that they did not derive by themself. This could happen when they are desperate for a solution and they don't have the means to derive a solution.

A Follower...


✔️ May personally need a solution
✔️ May be unable to find solutions
✔️ May be frustrated by logical discussions

A Follower is not...


❌ An experimenter who study problems
❌ Capable of deriving alternate solutions
❌ Interested in conceptual debates
Counter evidences have little use to followers because without the means to process them, they may create more cognitive dissonace than excitment. Signs that they are taking psychic damage include expressions of irritation and anger. A safer path is to first identify the personal situation that they need help with, and propose an alternative solution based on correct logic.
☁️ Manipulator

A manipulator holds onto a conclusion not because they have a problem to solve, but that they can profit by having followers buying into their solution.

A Manipulator...


✔️ Wants followers even when their solution would not help them

A Manipulator does not...


❌ Redirect followers to better solutions
Counter evidences and alternative solutions have little effect against a manipulator. But they can work for their followers. In this case, there is possibly a race on providing a better solution for the followers.

⭐ Diagnostic Schema

To show that an argument is cherry-picking:
✅ Identify the examples that are used
✅ Identify examples that are not used
✅ Show that the conclusion would change if unused examples are included
🍒 Example

💬: "[1] Profit demands inefficiency. [2] Volunteerism demands efficiency. [3] If a continuing problem makes money, there's no incentive to solve the problem. [4] If a continuing problem requires unremunerated effort to solve, it will be solved as fast as possible."
When the statements are arranged in apparent logical order, [1] and [3] is one pair, [2] and [4] is another pair. The two pairs suffer similar logical fallacies.
🍒 Relation between Profit and Efficiency

By definition, profit is the difference between a person's reward minus their effort. Inefficiency happens when the effort/reward ratio is high.

Case 1: A lone Individual

When a person is alone, the more efficient they are, the more profit they can make (from their effort). When a person is alone, a "problem" that allows them to "profit" is not a problem but an asset. [1] is nonsense when we consider an individual by themself.

Case 2: A seller and a buyer

When a person (seller) is making a profit off someone else (a buyer), the seller has an incentive to prolong the problem (to make profit), while the buyer has an incentive to end the problem (to keep their profit). [1] ignores the for-profit buyer who still has an incentive to be efficient. That is Cherry-Picking.

Case 3: Multiple sellers and multiple buyers

For-profit buyers have incentive to keep their profits by being efficent with what they can control. When given multiple sellers, a for-profit buyer chooses the lower price to retain their profit. Since inefficient sellers cannot offer lower prices, the buyers being able to choose different sellers drive the sellers to be more efficient. This dynamic exposes a seller's inefficient by comparing them against their competitors.

Case 4: Profiting off negative externalities

Profiting off negative externarlities here means a sellor off loading waste products to someone else (a victim) without their consent. This behavior can increase profit because the seller is not putting the effort to handle the waste properly. The incentive to not handle waste product is present even without trade. (e.g. A person may decide to let trash pile up in their own room without affecting other people.)

Conclusion

In conclusion, profit does not demand inefficiency. There are conditions in whcih a for-profit interaction of increases efficiency, and conditions where efficiency can decrease. To ignore the other possibility to say "Profit demands inefficiency" is cherry-picking.
🍒 Relation between Voluntarism and Efficiency

Voluntarism by definition includes all types of motivations. A person's willingless to be efficient depends on their source of motivation. The concept "Voluntarism demands efficiency" can be disproved by counter examples based on different motivations:

☁️ Freedom


"My way may not be an efficient use of natural resources, but it is an efficient use of my time when I just ignore the waste I create."

🌊 Altruism


"I know this task can be more efficiently done by someone more skilled, but I cannot force them to do it, so I will do it myself, even when I am the victim."

🌳 Tradition


"This may not be an efficient way, but it is the tradition, so that is what we do."

🔥 Reward


"This may be an inefficient way, but there is a reward if I do it like this, and to me that reward is worth it."

🧱 Togetherness


"This may not be an efficient use of resources and time, but I value simply chatting and being with friends instead of getting something done."

☀️ Pride


"This may be an inefficient use of resources, but if I start fixing the process I would be admitting that I was wrong."
Depending on their motivation, a person may simply ignore a problem that requires effort to solve. The case where someone is motivated to be efficient is just one cherry out of many.

🎓 Magic Bakery Noto Emoji

This is about prepare the Noto emoji for our 202312251111|Arcacian Quest cards (and to upload to the website).
For Layout Prototype

These steps are just for prototype because the result is not exactly perfect.
Step 1: Go to this {"cmd":"url","url":"https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Color+Emoji","desc":"previewer"} to get the 300px display on your browser. Highlight it, then click on another window so that the highlight changes from blue to grey.
Step 2: Screen capture the emoji with the grey background color. Crop it as needed.
Step 3: Copy the image to PowerPoint. Shrink to 8%. Adjust the color as needed. Set the grey background transparent. Add a custom non-trasparent black glow of 2 pt. Add a centered shadow. If the black border is not dark enough, copy the icon and overlay it with itself.
Step 4: When the icon is ready, center it inside a transparent square and group them to fix the offset.
📌 (Step 5:) This is the result that should be uploaded to GitHub, and shown in a node, so that when we or someone else may find and reuse them easily when making new cards.

EPIC I 202208012343
Standees are used for gaming, game testing, and for decoration. These specifications are just so that they are about the same size as the other ones already made.
    This is the scale where the head is about 30% of the character's height. This view allows the standee to be posted in side scroll/JRPG style. Only one image needs to be drawn. Left and right are mirror images. Draft, line, base color, flat color, white highlight, overlay 50%. This height is used for resizing the imaging for printing. This height is measured from the feet of the image to the top of the character's head. It doesn't include the thickness of the standee base. To make standees for bigger or smaller creatures, use the scale that 2.5" is the normal height of a person. Arrange the left and right images so that they are aligned along an edge, but leave white space for cutting. Print on Photo Paper with Best color format. Separate the two sides if needed, and withou bright light shining behind it, align them along their shared edge and then make a slanted alignment cut that cuts both paper away from the image. Apply glue or double sided tape, then use the alignment cut to put the two sides together. If the standee has delicate parts (like a protruding sword), apply double sided tape so that when you cut the white space it will cut the tape also. Trim the excess white space around the image, but leave the bottom edge for the standee holder to clamp. If the paper is not thick enough for the standee holder, just pad it with paper. Photo paper are normally not recyclable. The photo paper we use are from thrift store.
Avatars are the icon image for the characters. They should be colored drawing with a transparent background, scaled to a 1.5 inch square. Made Koyo's Avatar.

Keep a bin of Prototype parts: Plates, Hinges, Slopes, Bricks, etc.
Process: Start with a design. Get brick from BrickLink if we don't have necessary brick for a good build. This means we need to know what we have in inventory.
Don't buy more LEGO just for more bricks. We already have more bricks than we know what to do with them.
Enter bricks we don't use to BrickLink Inventory.

Magic Bakery

On Monday I saw an ad on my funds account asking me whether I was on track for retirement. So I entered some numbers for the estimation.

Black: And the result of the estimation was If I live somewhat frugally I could retire right now. Zoey: Congratulations! XD Congratulations! 😊 I can't see where this conversation is going. So I bought the 90th Anniversary LEGO castle. @Casey XD Awesome! Gonna take some days off to build it? I needed the winter break to build Titanic. I don't think I need to take any day off to build it. There's need and there's want. I think I will just take my time building it, since there is no plan of playing with it, so there is no hurry. Nice! If there is no schedule, let's get Arcacia hair for the whole crew. I wonder if that is within frugal living? 😅 I'm not actually retiring so that means a large part or all of my income is disposable. XD

Story

It was LEGO's 90th Anniversary. Some of us really want the new castle. Meanwhile, I want a LEGO model of Magic Bakery. Instead of making a separate wish node for each LEGO thing we want, I thought maybe they could all be at the same wish node.

Challenge

Get rid of one crate worth of stuff before building the castle.

[202208042000]

202208042000|Arena Stage
202207251000|◀ 2022 AUG 04 THU 8:00 PM
Magic Bakery

So I'm going to draw the Ageless Forest Arena. There is a quest on adding notes on how to draw. But I don't know what notes should be there. Could you help me by asking questions? You can see the art quest by clicking the parent link.

I want to learn how to draw. 😊 I can show you what I do, I don't really have advices... I think we need to make a quest node for the drawing of the Arena Stage. If it is not urgent we can just make the node later based on what we talk about here. @StarTree, could you make a node now? What template should it use? Let's make a template from Treasure and call it Asset Roger! 202208042023|⭐ Arena Stage StarTree you are spoiling Tanya! XD StarTree got credit! ⭐
3B: Previously, we discussed a little bit with Fina on what and where the stage should be. She wanted to see the Gate Temple entrance in the background. But Evelyn worried that it would block the way to the temple. So I made a design to feature a Gate Temple style gate in the background in a more secluded location. It is a side door to the temple. I like this picture. It seems like a quiet place where I would want to wait to meet up with the party for a quest. 😊 It think it is too small. The Arena is supposed to have spectators, and judges. I was thinking maybe we should start small and figure out everything we need and how an Arena fight works before designing a better stage. Okay.
Tanya: What is the shape of the stage? In that picture is a rectangle with rounded ends. Like the shape of a running track, but the ends are not fully rounded into semi circles. The two Pillars in the foreground should be further out so they don't block the view of the stage. Good point. In fact that was an error in perspective. They should be further out to line up with the pillars in the background. How big is the stage? What is the size of a person in that drawing? A person is just a little shorter than the height of a pillar. So even if you are standing, you could reach the top of the pillar and climb up.
Ledia: What is the purpose of the pillars? Maybe they mark the boundary of a barrier, so that attacks from the stage don't affect the outside. But they are outside the stage. Right. That allows a person to be out of bound of the stage without reaching the barrier.
Zoey: I suggest that the pillars to look like elemental totems. When they are active, you can see glowing symbols. I like that idea. Could we make it so that it shows the symbol or color of the champion? So instead of having a fixed element for each totem, the totem just shows the element it is activated with? I like that idea too. Hmm... So we need to design symbols for the elements. I added that as a side quest. The main quest being: "define and draw the stage."
3B: So is the size about okay? It is still diffifcult for me to tell how big the stage is from the picture. 😅 How big do you want it to be? Maybe the size of a beach volleyball court, but not as long? It says a beach volleyball court is 60' by 30'. I never realized that it is a square on each side. 😅 60' by 30' is 12 by 6 tiles in D&D scale. It is just slightly too long to print on printer paper. 😅? If you ever want to play the stage D&D style with minatures. What about a stage that is 8 tiles by 6 tiles Why not make it 8 by 8 like a chessboard? Then you can play chess on it. XD 8 by 8 means 40 feet wide right? That's huge. You can't see what is going on. I think 40 by 40 feet is probably not too big. If you have wings and spread them, you could easily be 10 feet wide. How about 10 tiles by 8 tiles, 50 feet by 40 feet, with rounded corners beyond the 40 feet square. I drew it in Powerpoint. Could we have odd number of tiles for width and length? So that there is a center tile? I drew 11 by 7 and 9 by 5. Since we don't care about 8x8, I made the corner radius to be 2 tiles. I think they both look better than 10 by 8. I think 11 by 7 looks more like an arena. 9 by 5 looks like a practice area. I'm okay with the secluded scene be the practice area. Let's start small. I added the approximate location of the totems. I have an idea. Why don't we build a LEGO model of it so we can see the size? What would be the size of a tile for LEGO people? 6 by 6. Do you have 45 6x6 tiles around? No, but if you use microfigure, a tile is about a 2x2. What is a microfigure? The ones they use in LEGO board games. XD There are more LEGO in the closest XD Sasha is not complaining. Then the entire stage is a 18 x 10 studs. Let's build it and take a picture. Then we trace it for the drawing.

Concepts

⭐ Freedom of association. People are allowed to choose their friends and self-organize into communities where members agree with each other.
A government may not violate individual rights of its citizens.

Applied at War

Each person, each town, may choose their own allegiance. A town choosing to be neutral may decide on its own whether to allow fighting or military equipment. [Twitter]
Q: Then how do you place military equipment near civilians to protect civilians? Autonomy allows such placement with agreement (consensus) from the civilian. If there is no agreement, a protected zone is set and willing civilians may go there. [Twitter]

Last week we added "Arcacianism" to Twitter but that didn't affect google search at all.

LRRH: "Hospitalianism" was tweeted about four times?
Sasha: Yes, I think we need to tweet it more, but to do that we need more content for Arcacianism.
Zoey: Isn't there enough content at Seed of Peace? I think we need more. More current, more useful, more encompassing. But that isn't really my department. Right now I mainly want to know which site's keyword would show up on Google the most. The next two places to try are Musescore and Youtube. I need an Arcacianism song.
LRRH: The song 3B sings is Arcacian Sky. It is not quite finished. I can't remember what it is XD
Evelyn: It is: l-t-d-lt------drm-f-m-td------d-f-m-d-----l-m-r---- Evelyn remembers every song XD But I only know bits and pieces of it. That's all there is. That's song is not complete. How do we complete it? I think if you want to complete it, you will hear the rest of it. LRRH receives It keeps looping back go Glory to the World for me... 😅
202208062355|⭐ Sora Arcacia In the meantime I would add a tag to Cooking with Arcacia to see if that makes any difference.
Evelyn: What can I do so that the song can come to me?
Ivy: I think... If you want the song to come to you, you need to do the Arcacian Quest. Ivy receives The heart of Arcacian Quest should be "Mankyoka". Transcending everything into something good. It is a celebration of all. I think it should be more uplifting than Glory of the World. I understand now. Glory of the World is based on a morning light shining onto a town. Arcacian Sky needs to soar.

Mice & Mystics
[202208071808]

202208071808|Kitchen Tunnels
202207311344|◀ 2022 AUG 07 SUN 6:08 PM
Kitchen Tunnels

The hero mice exited the sewer into a tunnel system. This is a continuation of the MIce & Mystics game of Team Cheesecake.

Casey: "I would guess these tunnels are mouse-made," Nez mused, "dug out who knows how many centries ago."
Cardinal: Suddenly a familiar cry echoed down the tunnels from faraway.
Sasha: "That's Miz Maggie's voice!", cried Collin.
Evelyn: "We must be near the kitchens," observed Tilda. "The dear woman sounds distressed. Let us find her with all haste." Helping Maggie is an optional plot with the reward of an achievement that could help in later chapter. But before the heroes could help Maggie, they must first clear the current tunnel. We now roll for the turn order. Cardinal: Centipede > Nez > Filch > Collin > Tilda. Collin gets one cheese. The party item Disguise has applied to remove two Rat Warriors that would have spawned. The Treachery card is applied to place the centipede adjacent to the heroes. Cardinal: The Centipede attacks first. (Centipede attacks Nez): Sword, Cheese X. 🕰️ 2:50 / 6:00. Casey: (Nez defense): Cheese, X.
Cardinal: The party's urge to help Maggie was stopped short when a towering centipede eruppted from the ground and attacks the biggest mouse it sensed. Nez takes 1 damage. If I understand correctly, since there is only one minion, it will only attack me every turn, right?
Tanya: Yes So does it make sense if I get the helmet leather armor also? In terms of game mechanics it does, but not for the story. Maybe Tilda could give Nez her armor in the form of a blessing? So I would give Nez my card, but we don't say that in the story. I'm okay with that. Casey: Anyway I'm attacking first. (Nez attack: Sword, Sword, Cheese X.) Cardinal: (Centipede defense: Shield, X)
⚔️
Casey: The Centipede hit Nez so hard that a normal mouse would have flied across the tunnel and fainted. But Nez was not a normal mouse. He grabbed the jaw of the centipede and started wrestling it onto the ground. The two are locked together, dealing blows to each other. Can I level up Nez with Battle Squeak? Anyone has an ability that can reduce defense? I think We don't want it to roll cheese. I don't have any debuff. 😅 Then I think I should get Battle Leader. It will allow me to switch initiative with Nez. So Nez should give me his helmet and cheese instead. Okay. I give Collin my helmet and cheese. P4: What should I attack with? Dagger, Accurate Bow, or Long Bow? Your dagger DPS is 1. Accurate Bow is 1.5. Long bow is 1.33. The long bow could give you the most cheese. P4: I want to try the long bow. If I get enough cheese maybe I will attack against with Energy Rush. (Filch attacks with Long Bow: Cheese, X, X, X). I use Energy Rush to attack again. Please don't. I won't have enough to get and use Battle Leader. Okay. Then I gave Collin all my cheese. P4 roll for kindness please. Cardinal is making it harder XD (Filch kindness: X) Filch will not share cheese this time. But when it is my turn I can still take Filch's cheese right? That will take another roll by Filch. That will totally mess up our strategy. In what condition can Filch level up on his kindness? Right now his cooperation is Rank B. Nothing stood out to me yet from the story. Please think about it.
P4: As Nez is wrestling the centipede, Filch wondered if he could just sneak pass and leave the group behind. But the group was his best chance of turning back into human. "Maybe I should help them," Filch thought. But another voice said, "That Wizard Maginos said this transofmration is permanent. You won't become human even if you help them." I think my turn is done. I want to get cheese from P4. (Filch kindness: Success) Okay. So It says I can I use Battle Leader immediately after my turn. I take that to mean I can still use an ability during my turn. Any objection? No objection. Then my plan is I use Give Order to have Nez attack again because he has a better chance of KO'ing the Centipede. Then I attack. After that I use Battle Order and switch with Nez. Then Nez can attack the third time before it is Tilda's turn. I think it is less risky if you attack first and decide whether to use Give Order based on whether you get more cheese. I think it is more important to make sure you have enough cheese to switch the order. If the Centipede attack Nez again it would KO him. You will lose a whole hour. Your chance of getting cheese is only 0.5 with three dice. Sasha: Okay I listen to Tanya and attack first. (Collin attack: Sword, Cheese, Cheese). Cardinal: (Centipede defense: Shield, X). I use Give Order. Let's make the scene after we know the rolls. Casey: (Nez attack: Sword, Sword, X, X) Cardinal: (Centipede defense: Cheese, X). The time is now 🕰️ 3:00 / 6:00. Two Rat Warriors have caught up. Casey: (Nez attack: Cheese, X, X, X).I fail.
Sasha: Nez was getting his upper hand wrestling the centipede when more Rat Warriors caught up. Collin gets into position to help Nez. Evelyn: I know I'm weak but I think I should attack because Nez is wounded. 😖 (Tilda attack with mace: Sword, X, X) Cardinal: (Centipede defense: Cheese, X). The time is now 🕰️ 3:10 / 6:00. How do you want to do this? The Healer. XD
Evelyn: As Tilda scrambles in her medicine bag to for herbs to treat Nez, the Centipede lets out an annoyed squeak and retreats back to where it came from. I think centipedes are innocent so it would be best if we don't beat it up. 😅 It is trying to eat you. ... 😅 I heal Nez as a free action. Cardinal: (Rat Warrior attacks Filch: Sword, X) P4: (Filch defense: Cheese, X, X)
Cardinal: With the centipede gone, it was aparent that the Rat Warriors spotted Filch. The narrow tunnel didn't give much opportunity for hiding. I use Give Order for Filch to attack. P4: (Filch attack: Sword, Sword) Cardinal: (Rat Warrior defense: Shield). The time is now 🕰️ 3:00 / 6:00.
Sasha: For a moment Collin was worried about Filch but his worry was short-lived as Filch KO's the Rat Warrior before he could intercept. In the dark tunnel it was not obvious that Filch was wounded from the fight. Sasha: I search. since I have the Thimble Helm. (Search: Success). I got Levitate Scroll. I guess that's for Maginos. P4: I dash and attack the other Rat Warrior. (Move: 2) (Attack: Sword, Cheese) Cardinal: (Rat Warrior #2 defense: Cheese). The time is still 🕰️ 3:00 / 6:00. Filch takes the cheese from the Rat Warrior. Perfect timing. XD
⚔️
P4: Filch dashes forward and KO's the second Rat Warrior. The tunnel was clear, there was nothing stopping him from leaving the group behind. Casey: If we help Maggie, we have to return to this tile, right? So I think we should hurry. I'll search then Tilda should go up. (Search:Success) I got Cheese Cache. That is one cheese for Tilda and Nez. (Move: 3) I move to the ladder.
Casey: Nez gets to the ladder. He is going up, as a matter of course.
Evelyn: As Tilda followed closely behind Nez, she noticed drips of blood Filch left behind. Her intuition told her that Filch was wounded. She said, "Filch, please let me see your wound." I think Filch will let Tilda treat him. Are we spending a clock cheese to treat Filch? Might as well, and try finding a knife for Filch. Evelyn: Then I search. (Search: X) The time is now 🕰️ 3:10 / 6:00 I search. (Search: X) I walk to Tilda's space and use search. (Search: Success). I use Find. I got Clawbitter, Lucky Staff, and Tinkerer's Treasure. There we go. So I give the Tinkerer's Treasure to Nez, and Nez gives me a knife? If you choose to do that let's just say Filch found a knife from the KO'ed Rat Warrior. Which knife do you want, big shot? We've got Dagger, Slicing Dagger, and Throwing Daggers. P4: I think the normal Dagger is the strongest. (Filch gets a second dagger.) I treat Filch's wound and we go up. May I give Tilda my cheese? Roll please. (Filch Kindness: Success.) I think it should be Nez's turn to level up. I think Collin should get Inspire. That gives each mouse after him one additional action. Okay. Then I give my cheese to Collin. and we go up.
Evelyn: "We'll be right up," Tilda said, as she patches Filch skillfully. Sasha: Good game, everyone. we'll continue the week after next weekend and save Maggie!

202208032237|◀ 2022 AUG 08 MON 11:33 PM
Magic Bakery

Just a quick announcement that the castle set may come on Thursday Aug 11. And the Arcacia hair arrived today, along with 3B hair.

Ledia: What is the plan of building it?
LRRH: I want to build and take pictures along the way. Story book style, like the last time. That means it might take longer to build it. Do you get guild credit for building it? I think no. But you get credit for chatting, same as game-playing. And also credit for upgrading the blog related to that activity. That credit structure would drag out the building process. But if it is fun doing it, why would you want it to end quickly?
Casey: When do we start building?
LRRH: It is up to you. It would feel the original plan of having a LEGO hour just before bedtime.
Casey: Then does LEGO Club activity qualify as a daily quest? We can build, take picture, write stories, and tidy up the shelves.
LRRH: I think it would be in the same slot as "Entertainment/Gaming" that board game is using.
Ivy: How about an no-tech hour? You can get guild credit if you help set things up and help others unwind during that hour. And that hour has to start no later than 11 PM. How do you write story if the screen is off? The point is you don't. But you could play and sort LEGO. You could also take notes and make plans on paper.
LRRH: What should we call this hour?
Ivy: Screen-off hour?
LRRH: @StarTree could you make that in the health group?
StarTree: Done! I'm curious who can actually do that consistently. Ok. we need an alarm at 10:45 PM, since there is no easily way to trigger that as a habit. StarTree set guild computers to have night mode! Thank you, that's better than an alarm.

A pursue is needed if there is no less intrusive means to stop the wanted person from causing more harm. Before issuing a warrant, there is a step to gather intelligence about the situation to make sure that the wanted person needs to be apprehended. This step also involves sharing intelligence among different guilds to not interfere each other. A warrant declares the justification to pursue the subject. If a quest asks to pursue someone, it should have a warrant. If the quest does not include a warrant, the quester should request it and report the quest for fact checking. This step locates the wanted person through intelligence and surveillance to discover when and where the person should be apprehended. This step could be its own sub quest in the form of a BOLO (Be on look out) quest for questers to report any sighting of the subject. Apprehension is to gain physical control and custody of the wanted person. Doing this without a warrant or justification is a violation of the subject's autonomy. This is the step of handing off the subject to a secure custody facility where the subject is booked for trial.
Updating format. "Empowering all
to protect goodness."

Paladin Hall

Hey, everyone! I added a place card for Paladin Hall and want to have a roster for those who want to be recognized as a paladin. If you want to be notified if something happens please sign up. 💟

Finally a recruiting page XD Yes! 😃
Ledia: I signed up. Should everyone who sign up add a message like you did? What should be in the message? It is up to you. Ok. I'll add something.
Evelyn: Is this only for those who are paladins as main class? It is for paladins of any level. If you want to help in case of a physical conflict, then you are a paladin. Then if I sign up, do I introduce myself as a paladin or a cleric? 😅 The protect skill that you use all the time is a paladin skill. You may introduce yourself as a cleric on the roster! 🤗 Okay, I signed up. 😊 You didn't say you are a cleric XD I don't want to look odd. 😖
Tanya: Perhaps "Paladin Roster" should be "Defender Roster." That's a great suggestion! The Paladin Roster is now called the Defender Roster.
LRRH: Is this for a game? It is for real! 😃 Real as in ...? 🤔 Real as in helping people for real. 😃 I'm a Herald, I guess that's real. XD
P4: P4 signed up. 💟
Fina: It's about time.
Sasha: I think it would be more fun if there is a game component of this. What do you have in mind? Maybe mock situation where help is needed, then a team is dispatched and we can see how paladin skills work. I can't think of any existing game like that.
Sasha: Detective games are more about investigation, not action. On the other extreme are war games. There is a void in between of games about paladin I think the normal adventurer theme is quite close to it.
Natalie: How about we start by identifying situations where it is relevant for paladins to intervene? Russia has been invading Ukraine since February. That is within what paladins should be trained to respond. Then what is our role? If we are not taking a plane to and fight in the war zone? And is that the proper response of paladins? If the paladins have a strong upper hand, the paladins would smite the invader. Which generally means the invaders would not have tried in the first place. If there is not such overwhelming force, then the rest of the world is try to influence the attacker to give up using sanction and other pressures. I think the concept of avoiding mutual annihilation is relevant here. Russia has nuclear warheads. I see some kind of dillemma: On one hand, the world could be more peaceful if paladin has such overwhelming force against evil. On the other hand, it is unrealistic that any faction or nation could be the only one with such overwhelming power. Given the norm that no nation would have such overwhelming power, when would paladins be able to help the way it is intended? I think that is a basic military strategy question. A small army can defeat a big army in many ways. But you can't assume that the invader doesn't also have a good strategist. If you recognize that both sides are equal in everyway then there is indeed no advantage but luck. In that case, it is a race to find the advantage to tip the balance. That is very much in the realm of Oracles. As Paladins, the emphasis is on preparing and maintaining a physical edge against evil. I think in general the good side is more creative and accepting so they can find the edge that the evil side cannot when it is governed through lies. I think I am good with that answer for now. But we need something to log this. I think this can turn into something more concrete. I'm tagging it for detective for now. But I want to focus on promoting Arcacianism. I'll follow up as I restructure Ask a Paladin. 🙂 Natalie thanks all for being good.

202208102147|Two ways to strip wires
2022 AUG 10 WED 9:47 PM
Whale Nursery

I don't know where this should go, but it is somewhat interesting. So here it goes.

Black: I noticed this back in April. Normally when I strip wire using a wire cutter that as a grove, I would hold the wire in my left hand, the wire cutter in my right hand. I clamp the cutter around the wire then push the cutter away from myself. That's the way I have always been doing.
Black: But P4 did it differently. She holds the wire in her left hand, but very close to the end, such that when she clamps the wire, she can push the wire off from the cutter toward herself. The main benefit of her way is that the insulation just falls down without any drama.
Zoey: I would say P4's way is the correct way. You've been doing it wrong all these years XD Most likely. 💟
Black: While we are at it, I might as well mention something else that P4 does.
Black: Sometimes we need to thread multiple wires through a small opening. What I would normally do, was to tape the wires together and thread it through at once.
Black: What P4 does, is that she uses the loose label tube that is already on the wire. She stuffs the end of the next wire in that tube. by doing so the tube becomes tight. Then she stuffs the third wire into the label of the second wire, and so on, forming a train of wires with its end inside the tube of the wire in front. Then she threads it through. Sometimes the wire train comes loose, but overall it is faster than using tape. 💟
Ledia: P4 is really good at this. She is patient and focused. P4 is recognized for being patient and focused.
Black: And efficient. P4 is recognized for being efficient.
Ledia: Inconspicuous. Yes, all those dexterity skills are hard to notice because she is not using anything extra and it was done without big movements. P4 is recognized for being inconspicuous. She flies there and flies back. And it is done. Dependable. 💟 P4 is recognized for being dependable. Good job, P4! XD P4 thanks all for the praises.

Builder Notes

2022-08-10: I worried that the bakery is too tall compared to other buildings. So we checked against the Tavern from Medieval Market Village. It was not too tall, in fact its floors were one brick too short. It might be a little too wide however.

[202208112038]

202208112038|LEGO Magic Bakery
202208082333|◀ 2022 AUG 11 THU 8:38 PM
Magic Bakery

So we started building Magic Bakery with LEGO, and the Castle arrived.

Black: And I am thinking of returning the castle. Oh why? I think that if we keep the club going, building the Magic Bakery would probably be more useful. So we aren't really in a hurry to start with the castle. But then why return it? We could just keep it until we build it. Because when we got the castle, we didn't get any VIP add-on. So I thought we could just wait and see if there is a good add-on or whether building our own original builds is all we really want to do as a club. And there is at least a pirate add-on right now. I can't order another castle until I return this castle. I don't approve that practice of returning a purchase and buying it again just for the gifts. My argument supporting that is, if you don't do that, LEGO won't learn to make their gift policy more friendly. That's a stretch because we can fairly assume that LEGO knew that its gift policy is working in making people buy more LEGO. I don't really have a strong argument.
Tanya: I think the focus should be the castle, not the gifts. Are you saying that you don't care if the castle becomes sold out? I don't think it will sell out just yet. Do you mean if you return it, you would constantly check for new gifts an buy it when there is a good gift? And what is a good gift? There is no good gift. You can buy every piece separately. But I agree with returning it, since there is a chance that we don't end up getting it at all.
Tanya: May I know more about why Ivy is against the castle?
Ivy: I am against LEGO in general. It is an expensive hobby especially if you buy new sets. Even if you don't buy new sets, it takes up a lot of space. I am also against it because it is not a hobby we can readily recommend or promote. It is too commercial, and it is plastic. On the other hand I could promote drawing because it is free and doesn't take much space. I see. Some information about whether LEGO can be recycled.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood thinks that the LEGO town should have a castle, but it doesn't have to be the Lion Knights' Castle. If we have to build a castle, I hope we build a Hospitalian Knights castle. They don't make the exact pieces you need to build a Hospitalian Knights caslte. The only thing that can really satisfy unbounded possibilities is drawing. That's the best way to get something exact.
Casey: I think the LEGO builds can help explain concepts and help our website. I think it will help somewhat. If you actually use it for relevant topics. But it being useful shouldn't be a requirement for keeping LEGO.
Ivy: Anyway. I think that if you spend the last hour building with LEGO every day, and all the rest of the day shopping or discussing about LEGO, then the Guild is practically dead
Evelyn: I think it should be fine if don't talk about it until the last hour? The bakery that is being build does look quite cute. I want to see it completed. 😅
Ivy: How about unless three non-rank A chartered tasks are completed, there is no LEGO building for the night? I think that is reasonable. We were able to do that on average last month. This guild is not about authority, so I'm posing it as a challenge. I'm challenging the LEGO Club to keep up with the same level of guild activity so that there is no doubt on whether the club is distracting the purpose of the guild.
Casey: I can accept not talk about LEGO during the day, but the last hour should be just free. I don't feel like I am doing anything less than before. But you are still using guild space and having an effect on what the guild is about. But your guild score is lower than mine... I mean... shouldn't it matter only if someone with higher score complain? Casey, that's not a good thing to say... I think Everyone's opinion is important because we are not completing for power. That's not what the score is for. 😖 I'm sorry. I apologize. For the record, at the moment Casey is ranked 10th in the guild with 1292 points. Ivy is ranked 15th with 827 points! I think Ivy's score is lower than what it should be because she doesn't always log when she does something for the guild.
Tanya: Is that true, Ivy? Are you not logging when you should get a point? That's not true. I just spend most of my time doing my own stuff. I am not asking for more points to be awarded to me. I think the scoring is fair for me and for Casey. And I disagree with Evelyn. I think when it comes to limited resources, this is what the point system IS for. Side note: Ivy was the main original designer of the point system and Quest Society! Ivy receives
Zoey: Does it mean... Casey needs to bid?
Ivy: I'm not asking for a bid because I am not using the guild space. I already have a lab. But if someone else want to use the same guild space, bidding would be an option to resolve the conflict. I've just taken a photo. {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547.png?raw=true"} It is us as LEGO people discussing in front of the LEGO Magic Bakery! XD If we start making more LEGO things, this is the kind of photo we could include in every post. You can't have 3B draw this because drawing is not immediate. Taking a photo is immediate. Maybe we should also have a Photography club XD I think I am good with being part of LEGO Club for now. You should still make a node just for Photography settings, even if it is not a full club. I see.
Evelyn: We have about 40 minutes remaining, could we update three charter quests? I added LEGO Magic Bakery to @Treasure. That should count as an update. @Treasure has been updated! I want to recognize Ivy for the skill Challenge. @Skill is already at Rank A for this month so it doesn't count toward the daily challenge for the LEGO Club. Ivy is now recognized for the Magician Skill Challenge. I updated @Book there is a lot of work to do there. 😅 @Book has been updated!
Tanya: For @Dungeon, I'm expanding the scope to add cognitive bias. I think I used to be overly negative. So I am adding negativity first. Being with the guild has taught me that when people come together and share their goals, something that appeared to be negative to me at first could actually be beneficial in ways I could not foresee. But the cooperation makes it possible. 202208112238|⭐ Negativity Bias @Dungeon has been updated! Ivy's challenge to the LEGO Club is completed for tonight! I like this challenge! 😊 @StarTree, timestamp please.
🕰️ [10:46 PM] 🕰️
So... can we start talking about LEGO now? since we completed the challenge? Yes you may. You don't have to wait until the last hour before you start talking about LEGO. I might also add that the purpose of the challenge is to orient the guild to focus on charter activities. I'm okay with you setting up a scene while doing charter activities at the same time. Okay, I'll make sure that the updates are meaningful and substantial. That's part of the non-rank A requirement.
Evelyn: What happens when all charters are already Rank A for the month? By the current Magic Bakery standard, you could just play your hearts out when all charters are already rank A. Holy moly! For real?! That's how I would interpreted it. But please don't over do it. Bedtime is still in effect. LEGO Marathon XD
Casey: Okay. so let's keep building the LEGO Magic Bakery. Actually we have a lot to talk about for the Bakery and for the club. But let's focus on the bakery first. If you have ideas, please write it down on paper notes, since in the last hour we don't look at screens. Casey thanks all for contributing to the team building!

202208122238|Photography Club
202208112038|◀ 2022 AUG 12 FRI 10:38 PM
Magic Bakery

As suggested, I started the photography club to document the settings we use for taking photos for the guild blog. The purpose of the club is not to review or get new cameras.

Tanya: The process of taking a photo then uploading for the blog is not streamlined. I think there are much room for improvement. But one thing I want to discuss is the style of displaying the photo on the blog.
Tanya: In the old LEGO book, photos had a soft edge. If we want to keep the similar style, It means that there is a step to apply soft edge in PowerPoint, then re-saving the image before uploading to Github. I tried checking if HTML/JS can do soft edge, but it seems that it cannot. So. Should we keep the same style?
Black: Could you post the same photo without soft edge but with rounded corners? @StarTree. Done! {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547-Raw.png?raw=true","style":"border-radius:20px"}
LRRH: I think soft edge with rounded corners look better than just soft edge or just rounded corner. If you can only pick one which would you rather see? Soft edge. I see.
Vivi: StarTree, could you show the photo in the usual brown border with corner radius of 10px? Done! {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547-Raw.png?raw=true","style":"border: 4px solid saddlebrown;border-radius:10px"}
Vivi: Why is there seem to be an additional white border insdie the brown frame?
StarTree: StarTree doesn't know! {"cmd":"img","src":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2012/03/01/00/55/flowers-19830_960_720.jpg","style":"border: 4px solid saddlebrown;border-radius:10px"}
StarTree: It is part of Border!
Vivi: Could you try no border, but with box shadow, and corner radius 15px? {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547-Raw.png?raw=true","style":"border-radius:15px;box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #808080;"} I think this looks pretty good. I thinks this is good. Maybe better than soft edge. For your comparison! {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547.png?raw=true"} {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547.png?raw=true","style":"border-radius:15px;box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #808080;"} Round corner with shadow looks the best here.
Vivi: StarTree, please make a class with that setting: "mbPhoto". Done! {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220811-220547-Raw.png?raw=true","class":"mbPhoto"}
Tanya: I'll make that the setting from now on. Thank you. Tanya thanks all for the attention. Tanya's question has been answered.

⭐ When posting a photo, use the class "mbPhoto"
⭐ In the old book, LEGO photos had a soft edge. It seems that there is no easy way to add soft edge programmatically using HTML/CSS/JS.

This is Puzzle Master Mikela! Nothing beats a good puzzle any day of the week! The difficulty rating (Star Rating) is based on the number of people stumped by the puzzle.
1-star means the difficult of the puzzle is "Rank D". The puzzle master has 50% chance to stump the player. If we play until someone gives the correct answer, the players need to get the correct answer within three tries. 2-star means Rank C with a 75% chance to stump the player. If we play until someone is correct, the seventh player needs to get the answer to keep the puzzle 2-star. 3-star means Rank B with a 87.5% chance to stump the player. If we play until someone is correct, the fifteenth player needs to get the answer to keep the puzzle 3-star. 4-star means Rank A, stumping about 94% of the players, or the first 31 players!

Made the list shows the difficulty rating by default.
    Add an in-node query section where the section content is the special filter commands. This for sorting or filtering the puzzles by type, such as logical, lateral thinking, mathematical, or word/pun. How should this be done? Should there be difficulty tags for the puzzle nodes? Should we count the number of white flags, stars, or lions in the node? The sitemap query can already query puzzles. By now random listing is part of the search buttons.

🗂️ Difficulty: | 👑 | 🪵 Penny had been collecting spare changes in one giant jar of pennies for years and decided to deposit them by bringing them to the bank in smaller jars. The bank teller says her jar of 2007 pennies is worth more than her jar of 2006 pennies. Why? Couldn't there just be more pennies in the 2007 jar? That can't be answer. Cardinal tell us that is not the answer. Penny separated the pennies by pouring them from the giant jar into smaller jars. That doesn't change that one jar could have more pennies than the other. She has more 2007 pennies. If Penny had counted, which she didn't, she would find that the giant jar had 193 pennies of year 2007, and 301 pennies of year 2006. Because she didn't count, her jar of 2007 pennies have pennies of other years. I think each hint Cardinal gives should count as one stump. That or you change your own icon to stump. Changed the hints to stumps. Both jars total about $20. It is a pun puzzle! XD A jar of 2007 pennies totals $20.07. A jar of 2006 pennies totals $20.06. The numbers were the count, not the year of the pennies. John and Mary have $110, John has $100 more than Mary. How much does Mary have? $10 It can't be that simple. I would consider that a win if you notice that the answer isn't $10. Is it an algebra problem? Yes. $5? John has $105 and Mary has $5. Two coins total $0.30, and one of them is not a nickel. What are their denominations? Are the coins in US denominations? Yes. The answer is funny. Yes it is funny. One nickel and one quarter. The quarter is the one that is not a nickel. A one-way ticket is $10, a round trip ticket is $20. A customer gives the cashier $20 without a word. How does the cashier knows that he wants a round-trip ticket and not a one-way ticket with $10 in change? Two $10 bills. The customer handed the cashier two $10 bills. Two $10 bills. The customer is two people. He handed two $10 bills! https://freakonomics.com/podcast/farewell-to-a-generational-talent/ A penniless sculptor crafted and sold a beautiful copper statue. On his way home, his neighbor advised him that his home was no longer safe. What did the neighbor notice about his home? His home had too much copper? Electrical wires? The issue is something noticeable from the outside. The sculpture was taller than the roof, now with the sculpture sold, there is a hole in the roof. The sculptor lived in an abandoned tower and he used its lightning rod for the sculpture! A person posted an ad and found a stranger to shop together. What are they buying? Anything from a wholesale store. XD They were not buying bulk. I think I have heard about this before. I don't think it would be necessary now with online shopping. They brought pair of something, but they don't have missing limbs or body parts. Their left and right feet are different sizes in the opposite ways. So they go shop for two pairs of the same shoe style and exchange one with each other for the correct size of them. Timeline is a game of putting historical events in chronological order. We have a node for playing this game! A perfectly healthy circus performer almost died after being touched by a feather. What happened? The feather touched their noise and caused an accident. The performance was standing on the ground. 🐯🤧 There is no other animal involved in the performance, but the performer did sneeze from the feather. What is the performance? Torch juggling. Knives throwing. Weight lifting. Sword swallowing. The performer was doing sword swallowing and sneezed! A perfectly healthy person was trapped in a sealed room that could slowly kill not from a lack of oxygen, water, or food. What is the lethal danger? Poison? Squeezing walls. Digestion/Acid? There is nothing unsafe in the room before the person entered, and nothing dangerous was added to the room afterward. The room is not changing shape or getting smaller. The danger is painless. The danger is a type of poisoning. But from what? Is the room filled with food and the n't? It is carbon dioxcide poisoning! It happens before the room runs out of oxygen. Explanation quora.com/What-would-I-die-from-if-was-locked-in-an-airtight-room-too-little-oxygen-or-too-much-carbon-dioxide What normally has 5 or 4 hands? A highend wrist watch or alarm clock. Good answer! But for this puzzle, some of the hands can be taken off! This seems hard. Could we use the pudding to rate the difficulty? Should the tag has "Hard" for difficult puzzles? How about marking this as a two-star puzzle? Tagged, but the code doesn't filter for a double star. It would probably work if there is a two-star icon. I think we could just gauge how difficult the puzzle is by counter the horn icon. Like this. Should it be the horn or the white flag? I still think a double star would make the most sense. The code can work with double star entered in the tag. The search command is update. Nice! That's what I want to see. I kind of like Sasha's concept of just counting an icon. Or is there a rubric on what a two star puzzle difficulty level means? Our star rating already has a percentage meaning. In this case we want the more stars there are the more likely it would stump someone. Two star also means rolling two dice, so it means it will stump 75% of the players. P4 is stumped. If no one can answer it it would be at lesat 5-star puzzle. So far we have 0/6! XD I am stumped too. I think using the wood icon to mean being stumped is cute. When one person is stumped, the default difficult should not be 5-star but 1 star, because if the next person can answer it, then the difficult would be 1 start. So you mean a puzzle is not rated 5-star unless we have asked 32 people and none of them can answer it? For simplicity, yes. Right now our count is at 0/7, we just need one more person to admit they are stumped to level up this puzzle to three star! XD StarTree has no idea! Updated the search buttons to have the stump counter and the star filters. Each star is a different button. The Stump count is 3! I'll get with the program! XD +1 Give me some time to think about it. I think it is sufficiently stumped if it cannot be answered within minutes for this type of puzzle. Stumped. Is the answer just a person wearing a wrist watch? Congratulations! Red wins! https://www.iriddler.com/riddles/puzzles/5hands.htm Good job. XD I see. So it this puzzle 2 or 3 stars? Now that Red got it? For simplicity we should just count the stumps, and one-star should be the minimum difficult, so even when there is no stump, the puzzle would at least be 1 star. I am only kind of fine with that practice but what is the actual full version of the math for the difficulty rating? Like, if we allow 0 stars, is 1/1 0-star or 1-star? This is the way I see it: Normally when we roll the dice, we are rolling for a chance to succeed, and 1-star of skill level means a 50% success rate. For difficulty, the GM is rolling the dice to determine if the dungeon would succeed. The more dice the GM can roll, the easier for the dungeon would succeed. One-star means the dungeon has 50% success rate. Empirically, 1/1 means the dungeon has never succeeded. To capture that success rate in a game, you would either let the GM roll 1 die, roll with disadvantage(s), or automatic fail without rolling any die. To keep the interface simple, I think any GM success rate below 1-star should just be considered 1-star. So that means "1-star" includes the range [0% to 75%). If the party failure rate reaches 75%, the puzzle becomes 2-star [75% to 87.5%). Hold on. So suppose the next player is also stumped on this puzzle, is the stump count 1/9 or 0/9? What does Red's answer count as? I think if we really want to keep track of it, it should count as 1/9 by counting the number of crowns divided by the number of participants. We were using the stump to show who tried but was stuck, as opposed to someone who joined the discussion without trying the puzzle (such as to discuss code upgrades.) Okay, so according to that explanation, if we get it on the eighth player, the rate will still be 1/8 which is outside [75% to 87.5%) so that is 3-star regardless whether the eighth person can answer it. Wouldn't that mean when the ratio is at 0/7, we already know the puzzle is 3-star? The cutoff is not actually at the eighth person, but the seventh person. I think that is true. What is the deal about this question? I need to know when to say, "you are our last hope." XD If we are at 0/6, I need to remind people that if the next person is stumped, the puzzle will be 3-star, unless the next person can answer it correctly so we have a ratio of 1/7 which is the last chance to keep the puzzle at 2-Star. I have to give the notice 2 persons before the the next 2^n. XD Thinking of a herald. That would be an interesting notice. To keep a puzzle 1-star, it needs to be answered within a party of 3. That's exciting. For a moment I thought we wanted to see how many people can't get the puzzle to see if we can reach 5-stars. That was the vibe but on retrospec maybe we should try harder to solve the puzzle so that it doesn't look like the difficulties of the puzzles are higher at Magic Bakery. XD I don't think that should be a consideration. The point should be that "someone at Magic Bakery could solve the puzzle," not whether "most of the people at Magic Bakery could not solve the puzzle." The puzzle only needs to be solved once. I like that explanation and I think it makes it easier to try and say you are stumped instead of not saying anything to keep the ratio low. I would like the announcement because it would prompt me to think harder instead of just reporting that "I tried and I am stumped. I give up. Let's see if the next person gets it." The stump doesn't mean you gave up. But for a short puzzle like that, if you took too long to answer it, you are effectively stumped. We'll see what happens in the next puzzle. P4 was thinking about carrying an alarm clock when Red answered. I can picture a cute image of P4 carrying an alarm clock. 😊 As LRRH ponders why no one says Red is cute since P4 joined. 😖 Smaller is cuter! XD Isn't that just because Red is guild master and authority is intimidating? Little Red Riding Hood wants to be treated more like a guild mascot than an authoritative figure. P4 pats Red. Red is very patable. あたたかい。 Do we need a ritual to pat Red? Don't turn this into a cult. XD Only Evelyn consistently wants P4 is cute. No one else say anyone else is cute normally. I'm sorry. 😖 I think Evelyn is cute. Yes. StarTree is cute. Wee~~! A horse tied to a 15-feet rope is able to eat from a hay bail 25-feet away. Why? Because the rope is not tied to anything else. Bingo! https://www.iriddler.com/riddles/puzzles/horse.htm A man is at risk of dying of thirst in his own home. Why? Does he live on a boat and run out of fresh water? Congratulations! That's the answer! https://www.iriddler.com/riddles/puzzles/thirsta.htm An employee is considering quitting his job, but if he turns off the lights and walks out of the room, 200 people will die. What is his job? He control the lights of a runway at night. Good guess and that is one of the answers! The other answer has the lights inside the room where he works. What is it? He works at a lighthouse!

Have you started building the castle? Got any other LEGO?

Black: I haven't opened it yet. You should open it. There's some news that LEGO could send you the wrong set. Like the Millenium Falcon? The unannounced Harry Potter train. Then LEGO was forced to announce it. Okay. Then I'll open it.
🕰️ [9:16 PM] 🕰️
Black: I am planning to open the Lion Knights' Castle package just to see what is inside. I haven't decided whether I would return it yet. But opening the package shouldn't be a problem.
Ivy: Just for the record, who is for or against keeping the set? I am against keeping because it takes space, and I think it is something we need to undo later on. What do you mean by undo? You would eventually want not to promote peace using commercial plastic products when there is a clearly more eco-friendly and free alternative of using digital drawings. It poses a contradiction. It is an addiction issue to resolve. So you are saying that if we want something 3D, we could use wood, cray or paper, but not LEGO blocks. Yes. Like this? XD
Casey: What about LEGO build using old LEGO bricks? That still promotes more new bricks unless you literally saves the bricks from being discarded.
Black: The set we got is the castle. And I don't really have an argument against Ivy's. Then what do we do about the castle set? It already exist. If we return it, we are wasting shipping effort. Maybe it means that should be the last set, and you may only build it if you use it against the hobby. That is kind of mean.
Sasha: Wait, wouldn't that also apply to board games with plastic parts? Yes it would.
Black: Okay. I'm in favor of keeping it. But we won't start building it until we let go of enough stuff to make room for it. Does that include getting rid of stuff in the garage? We have an extra refrigerator there. It won't really save us any space inside the house. You should find a way to get rid of the extra refrigerator, and make room inside the house.
Evelyn: Don't we have space in the display case? One section is still empty since we last tidied it. We just put the picture frames in a crate. They are still inside a crate.
Black: My challenge is to get rid of one crate worth of stuff inside the house before we would build the castle. I'll take that challenge. I think it is fair. Does it include rearranging things to make room of one crate, or do we have to actually get rid of one craft of stuff. I would say get rid of. If you just rearrange stuff, the mass is still the same. But why would you want to get rid of things if they could be useful? I think we can find things that are not useful. I think we should try first, and evaluate if we really can't do it. Alright. So can we get rid of board games? You may get rid of the Murder Mystery board games after scanning them. You may also get rid of the VR escape room game and Tips Ahoy, which we played.
3B: I think we could also get rid of binders and stacks of printer papers. I don't think we have that much to print, if we will prefer the digital alternatives. I think we have two crates worth of paper and binders. Please get rid of the murder mystery games after scanning them first. It is hard to play them unless they are scanned. The real reason Sasha offer them to be removed XD Ivy thanks all for listening.

Red is discussing something Arena-worthy at Twitter. We should add that content as soon as possible, because that is the type of content that we discuss repeatedly.

Tanya: In fact I would propose a challenge that Red shouldn't reply until there is a node with such content. That is one way to prevent discussion backlog from growing and keep our focus on building the blog in a way that can be referred.
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood accepts that pacing. There are actually two discussions going on.
LRRH: First there is this reply: "Under a Resource Based Economy, which is what my policies are headed towards, there would be no nation states, because the thing that enables RBE is: Declaring the resources of the world as a common heritage to ALL of Humanity, not just one person, or city, or business." Before that, I discovered that their "8 philosophical pillars of peace and harmony" did not include autonomy. So I was questioning their stance on freedom of association.
Tanya: Before you reply, we need a node for taking notes for their philosophy. @StarTree. Done! 202208162026|🚀 Interstellar New Deal
Tanya: And what are you comparing it with? Hospitalianism or Stewardism? I think I can do either. Autonomy is common to both. Then let's bring up the Autonomy node. A reply you make should have reference to a concept on that node. That's the minimum. At the minimum, your reply should be based on a concept that is declared. Okay.
LRRH: The reply I planned to make was a question: "If a group of people want to create a medieval-ish town where people dress in realistic medieval clothing, and another group of people want to create a medieval fantasy town where people dress in medieval fantasy clothing, does your philosophy allow each town to ban people who don't dress up appropriately for the setting to enter?" XD That's the most important question in the universe. That's kind of a cute question. 😊
Fina: The underlying concept is freedom of association. In Stewardism, that is allowed as long as the location is not ineligible. I think we need a Stewardism node also. Done! 202207161423|⭐ Philosophies
LRRH: I replied. [Twitter]
Black: I think we need benchmark questions that we can ask every advocate we encountered. Then we can compare their answers. I agree. Where should it go? It doesn't fit the definition of Challenges or Contests. Maybe "Characteristics"? It could go before Challenges. That's very considerate. That the title also starts with a 'C'. XD And it is longer than "Challenges. Evelyn is recognized for being considerate. I wonder if that is worth such recognition? 😅 I think when you reply you should aim to keep people happy. We should have a node for Evelyn's ideals. I think Evelyn should be a champion. I'll think about it. 😅
StarTree: Should the "Characteristics" section be a node? Yes. A collection type node. What would be its parent? Philosophy Arena. I see. Please first make a place node for Philosophy Arena. Roger! 202208162157|⭐ Medieval Township Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the discussion. We might talk about the second thread next time.

Definition

Stewardism as a moral view is the belief that protecting and sharing the world now and in the future is a moral good. To this end, Stewardism supports concepts such as sustainable living, individual autonomy, and reciprocation. Stewardism recognizes self care, natural wonders, and reciprocation as basic rights.

Right to Self Care

Right to Self Care includes the right to self-defense and take care of oneself. This right includes a person's right to have possession and dwelling for self-care, to call for help, and to appoint their own assistant. Violations to this right include banning people from practicing medicine without a license, and providing false information or credential when offering help. This right is incompatible with subjugation/servitude/slavery contracts: even if a contract of slavery was voluntarily signed, the contract cannot be enforced and an enforcer of such contract is regarded as an aggressor.

Right to Natural Wonders

Right to Natural Wonders maintains the world as a shared place to allow exploration and appreciation of the open world. This right does not include intruding personal dwellings. Violations to this right include pollution and concealment of a wonder.

Right to Reciprocate

Right to Reciprocate means everyone has a right to reciprocate against those violating the rights of others. For example, a polluter of a region could lose their right to enter the region. People who violate others' right to self-care may be kept from having possessions and dwelling in a community. Violations to this right include laws that outlaw reciprocation.

Property vs Custody

The Right to Worldly Wonders aims to keep the world open for every responsible person to enjoy. With this comes the question of "Where may I build my house and how big of a house may I build?"
Judging whether a location is a matter of property or custody is the first step in determining whether and what type of dwelling can be built at a location. In general, abundance and having a sustainable live style make a location eligible to be possessed as personal property, while wonder and importance make a location a matter of shared custody.
At scenic environments, a resort type dwelling would be built to allow different travellers to enjoy. Personal dwellings would be awarded to local caretakers, aka the Stewards.
Stewardism awards contested living spaces to those with the most positive impact in taking care of the locale.
In Stewardism, a Steward is a person who takes care of a locale and maintains positive impact to the environment. They are the people who keep the location clean and ecologically sustainable. A Steward is not referring to a "proprietary owner" but to a person doing the actual maintenance work such as a janitor. By their maintenance work, the locale is kept sustainable for others to enjoy. Their work offsets the negative impact of others to the environment and make the locale affordable for them to visit. Therefore, Stewards are awarded the highest priority when a dwelling space is eligible for personal possession.

Hospitalianism as a moral view sees providing hospitality as a moral good and proposes using a contest of hospitality to settle disputes in allocation of natural resources.
Net Migration Rate

In the context of international disputes, hospitality can be measured based on net migration rate (NMR) when people voluntarily decide to join a country they prefer. Countries that treat its citizens well tends to retain its population and attracts immigrantion and have positive NMR. Countries that treat its citizens poorly create emigration, giving them negative NMR. Disputed natural resources are awarded to countries with positive NMR.
Hospitalian consensus democracy

The world is self-organized into zones with a connected free zone. Each non free zone may set its own weapon laws. A zone may expel but not detain a person. A zone loses/gains resource from the free zone as it expels/accepts members.
Example 1: Territorial conflict

Country A and B are neighbors and have a dispute over the control of a piece of land X.
If Country A and B have similar NMR, X would be split between them. If more people are migrating from A to B than from B to A, then B would be awarded the control of X.
Difference between Hospitalianism and Popularism

In Popularism, a country that has a higher population would be allowed to dissolve a country with low population even if the lowly populated country is NMR+. In Hospitalianism, a country does not lose its natural resources unless it is NMR-.
Q: In Hospitalianism, can an NMR+ country take resource from an NMR- country?

In Hospitalianism, countries that are NMR- have a duty to yield resources for those who choose to emigrate. The accounting is the same as if those people declare independence from their mother country. If the mother country does not yield the corresponding resource, the mother country is considered a rogue state--an immoral body of government. Once the mother country had yield the corresponding resource, it should become an NMR0 country, not an NMR- country. Therefore, in Hospitalian terminology, an NMR+ country does not take resource from an NMR- country, but an NMR- country is immorally withholding resources that belong to its emigrants. The emigrants have a moral right to retrieve their shares of the resources.
Difference between Hospitalianism and Imperialism

In Imperialism, citizens may not choose to breakaway and become independent. In Hospitalianism, they may.
Systems for comparison

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.upworthy.com/amp/life-on-a-cruise-ship-2658985941","desc":"All Inclusive Cruise"} Hospitalianism works on ships in addition to land. With Gaia system, the passenger is banking their share of resources on the ship they choose. The cruise operator then manages those share for its own resupply.

Exploration quests refer to quests where the goal is to obtain knowledge about the area to be explored. This type of quests is not limited to physical exploration. Some examples are listed below.

☀️ Physical Survey


Explore a physical landscape and mark notable resources and hazards.

🔥 Opinion Survey


Gather and share information on what people want.

🌳 Properties Study


Study the properties of a subject to understand its behaviors, relations, and limitations.

🌊 Problem Solving


Collect and implement problem solving ideas and share their effectiveness.

☁️ Creative Expression


Find new ways to excite and interest people.

🧱 Vulnerabiilty assessment


Imagine how the world or humanity may fail and device countermeasures.
A common deliverable object of an exploration quest is a report. According to quest making principles of quest society, the entire space to be explored would be conceptualized and enumerated as soloable sections. A quester gets credit when they produce the report for their chosen section. Once that report is in place, another quester may get credits for verifying the report, or providing updates on an old report if the properties of that area has changed.

Tips on Seeting up an Exploration Quests


✅ Define the goal and the space to be explored
✅ Define soloable tasks and the credits for its artifact
✅ Share artifacts to help questers identify unexplored areas
In a Quest Society, "work" is organized into quests. This section highlights the main differences.

Status Quo


A company receives orders and hire employees to do the work. Company owners take a cut from the revenue for themselves.

Quest Society


A quest sponsor assigns something as reward and charters quests. A quest doer earns the reward for completing quests.
While a Quest Giver can be a single sponsor, in a Quest Society, a typical Quest Giver is a Guild, which consists of members dedicated to a common goal. Guilds can self-organize and form alliance that recognize credits earned at member guilds.
Since Quests are optional, a quester may select a quest based on a variety of reasons. The most common reasons are purpose, personal development, and reward.

Purpose


✅ Select a quest based on what you believe is important and purposeful.

Personal Development


✅ Select a quest based on what you want to learn or practice.

Reward


✅ Select a quest based on what is fun or the amount of quest credits.
Quest credits are awarded at the completion of quest deliverables. To avoid excess attempts, a quest taker may tag themself as a taker.

Welcome to this node where we plant seeds for happiness! There is magic in surrounding yourself with things that make you happy. What are some simple things that make you happy? We have a node on different recharge methods. Scrapbooking is collecting things that make you happy and put it in a presentable format. The happy calendar is a calendar where you could put notes on what made you feel happy on each day as they happen. Do you know what you need to be fulfilled? Oftentimes people are not aware of their own emotions and let their negative emotions lead their way. Being able to rate your own happiness can help you put the situation in perspective, and you can add tips that help you become happier. The restoration node is about how to resolve various status effects. It has some similarities to the how happy are you today node. Maybe they should be the same node? This question is about looking ahead and plan for activities that you enjoy.

Quest Society enables autonomy in a wide range of issue for a stable, happy and peaceful society. In a Quest Society, helping others is a legal and rewarding choice. Voluntary helpers get credits for helping, while those who are helped pay nothing and assume no debt. Credits earned by helper are used to settle priority in borrowing community assets and resolving conflicts of scarcity.
🐣 How does ... work in Quest Society?

202308061940|🏙️ City
⭐ Education

Quest Society gives credits to teachers for their free teaching. You don't get quest credits learning but you get credits for doing research and using your knowledge to do quests.
Twitter
⭐ Investigation

Quest Society gives credits to people who help investigate crimes. Different steps of the investigation could be divided into sub quests, and people who are certified in skill and security clearance can submit evidence and reports to the system. In general investigative process and evidence gathering is recorded.
⭐ Panhandling

Since a person has their share of resources, they don't need to panhandle. Those who need help turning the resources they own into something useful would choose a management agent to do so. If a person needs extra help, they could start a quest or get help starting a quest.
⭐ Weeding

Quest Society gives credits to people who volunteer to do public maintenance quest. When a public area has overgrown weeds (or to prevent overgrown weeds), there would be a quest to do the weeding. Then you could sign up for a section and get credits when you complete according to spec. The society might have equipment that you could borrow for the quest, or you could use your own equipment.
📒 Definitions

Quests are optional opportunities to earn credits for good deeds. The choice of word "Quest" comes from the free-spirit on helping others as a "side quest" in adventure roleplaying games. In that spirit, quests are not mandatory. The game designer makes the quests not-mandatory by maintaining alternative ways for the player get what they need to stay in the game world. Translated to the real world, it implies that the world has enough open access areas for each person to directly harvest resources and provide for themselves without helping anyone else, as long as their self-care does not violate the opportunities of others to care for themselves. The meaning of 'work' https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1552751113534771201 Capitalism vs stewardism https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1801265652805911030
🧱 Foundation of a good system

⭐ A good system lets people do good unhindered. In other systems, an example of hinderance to doing good is monopoly of job role, including both private ownership and control, and unions of public services that bars ordinary people from providing the same service.
⭐ A good system transforms self-interests into good deeds. A quest society awards credits to good deeds. The helper decides whether to spend those credits. An altruist is someone who earns but does not spend their credits. The society is neutral toward helper spending their credits. A helper has a right to spend all of their credits.
⭐ A good system can handle both scarcity and abundance. When a single rule set can objectively handle scarcity and abundance, people can better predict and adjust their behaviors if they don't like where they stand.
⚖️ Comparisons

GoRequest

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.govoutreach.gorequest","desc":"[link]"}
GoRequest is an app that allows citizens request services. Compared to Quest Society, GoRequest does not include the other half where a citizen can sign up and be a quester to fulfill the requests.
Taskrabbit

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.taskrabbit.com/","desc":"[link]"}
Taskrabbit is a platform that pairs people who need work done with independent service persons. Compared to Quest Society, Taskrabbit assumes that the person requesting the service will pay. Quest Society in general does not require the quest giver to pay for the service, because the services being requested are public good services. In fact the spotter of an issue would get credits for creating the quest.
HonorPay

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://honorpay.org/","desc":"[link]"}
HonorPay is a platform for people to request free service. Compared to Quest Society, HonorPay does not keep track of an quantitative honor and honor is not tied to something functional. In Quest Society, the quest credits have a function in settling scarcity contests.
🧭 Steps to transition to Quest Society

⭐ Keep a decentralized public record of people who do social good.
⭐ Prioritize welfare, reimbursement, and reward to those who do social good.
⭐ Divide socially good tasks into small chucks (Quests) to let people earn credit through doing good
⭐ Create a flare system for the good doers to communicate and handle emergency and unplanned events where help is immediately needed. Ivy: helping on unplanned incidents are generally worth more credits compared to lower priority quests, so that it makes sense for a capable helper to pause their current quest and handle the higher priority quest first. For this reason, the number of crime fighters overwhelm the number of criminals.
🥁 Key Stances

⭐ Anti-Union Ivy: Quest society is unmistakenly anti-public service unions in the sense that by turning public service tasks into public quests, anyone can train themself or get training to do quests and get credits. There is no union that can ban an individual from earning credits.
⭐ Anti-Profiteering Ivy: By completing a quest, the helper is eligible for free material reimbursement and credits but only if the helper is not paid in other ways. This is because free reimbursement and credit represent society's debt to the helper. If the helper is already paid, society assumes no debt.
⭐ Anti-Transferability of Credits Ivy: A helper may not donate or give their credits to another person. The credits is part of the helper's bio. It is assigned to and stays with the individual, and never to an organization. By doing this, an organization cannot hold a help hostage as a subcontractor. It is illegal to falsify who performed the good deed.
⭐ Equality in prioritizing helpers Ivy: Quest Society prioritizes help to helpers, but does not discriminate against helpers or difference races, gender orientation, etc (equality classes) in distributing reimbursements and credits. This is a significant difference from the stance of "giving help equality to anyone regardless of status". Quest Society prioritizes help to those who help others, and welcome anyone to join and become a helper so every call of help is answered.
⭐ Neutrality to money Ivy: Quest Society is designed to allow money systems to exist side by side independently with no intention to abolish or maintain monetary system. Quest Society takes the stance to let people voluntarily choose to participate. A helper may have a for-profit business, and get Quest Society credits when they give help without other incentives.
⭐ Neutrality to Altruism Ivy: Since a helper's credit is pulic information and is used for prioritization, Quest Society does not using the term "Altruism" in describing helpers and does not claim to be promoting altruism. A helper may self-proclaim to be altruistic, but that term is officially and intentionally left undefined in Quest Society.
⭐ Neutrality to Independence Ivy: Quest Society neither promote nor forbid an individual or groups of people to form their own nation. Quest Society maintains indepedence as a choice so that a reasonably competent person does not need to do any quest for their basic necessities. Sections of natural resource is designated for people to live independently as solo or tribal survivalists.
💬 Survey / Feedback / Questions / Discussions

⭐ Do you prefer a Quest Society? What are its pros and cons to you? Black: Quest society is like working on open source software. There is no "deadline". You contribute at your leisure. Since credits are automatically given, you don't have to rely on people who choose to donate after using your code. When they use it you get the credit already, and it is "free" to the user. Ledia: Quest Society works by dividing traditional job role into smaller quests. That means efficiency can be maximized because a person can super specialize themself to just do one thing but do a lot of them. Of course this only lasts if the demand for the quest type is recurring.
⭐ If a millionaire fixes a pot hole... LRRH: If there is a quest to fix a pot hole, and a millionaire fixes it with robots before anyone else have a chance to try fixing it and get credit, does the millionaire get the credit? (202208281250) Ivy: The millionaire would get the credit. Unless the quest giver rejects help from them. The quest giver may appoint a helper out of favorism, then both the millionaire and the actual helper would get credit Ledia: Shouldn't there be an algorithm where a helper with fewer credits get priority so they may get experience and skill up? Ivy: I think if you do that, the Quest Society would become anti-automation. If a Quest can be routinely be completed more efficiently by automation, then the Quest Society needs to give automation inventors the credit volume to reward their effort of creating that automation. Please find other ways to get credits. If you need credits for something, hopefully your need will also be taken care of by something in an efficient manner. LRRH: Is there a violation if the quest specifically asks for hand-made cake, and not a cake made by a robot? Zoey: For those who are not used to this, LRRH is not trolling, I swear. XD Ivy: There is a violation because you are discriminating against the helper. You may ask for a live demonstration of how someone like you (a human being) would bake a cake. But you cannot discriminate against a demonstrator who is actually a robot. So you could submit that as a quest, and you could intentionally interview and reject robot demonstrators, but those you reject would still get credit. Ledia: If I need up and there are 10 helpers applying, are you saying that I can intentionally choose a helper with the highest rating, but every helper including the one with low rating would get the same credit? Ivy: The ones you do not select would get credit based on the rating from their record. Ledia: There is some detail that needs to be freshed out here. If I get 1000 helpers, I don't think all of them should get credits, otherwise they are getting credits by just signing up on a task that has low demand. Ivy: The amount of credit a quest is worth, is based on supply and demand. So yes. You do get credits just for signup and offering help. But the credit is less that other quests with higher demand than supply. The system will also penalize those who don't actually show up to help when selected. A helper signs up for notification when a quest is posted. If they accept to do a quest, they should follow through if selected. Ledia: You need a page to demonstrate this computational/accounting details. LRRH: Suppose a bake a cake that many people likes, is it illegal if people submit a demand quest saying, "I want a cake from LRRH"? Ivy: That kind of situation should be dealt as a reward. That means people go to your profile and request a reward. And if you want to function within Quest Society, then you create a reward object, which is "LRRH's cake". Then people bid with their credits. You get credit when you deliver the cake to the highest bidder. LRRH: How is that really different from appointing a helper? Ivy: First, if you post it at the rewards category, then helpers other than you won't need to consider and plan for the quest. This keeps the quest section focused on tasks where people just want to get done as efficiently as possible. Second, unlike quests, rewards have a COST. People are bidding for your cake in that section, your cake is not free. People who wants your cake but not other people's cake are spending credit for their specific and unyielding interest. LRRH: Now I understand. 🐣
⭐ Why do people pay to play games, but demand pay to work? What if... Ivy: Most people encounter “quests” only in role-playing games. The player character, typically an Adventurer, may do optional quests to earn in-game rewards, or just for the fun of questing.
While there are in-game quests that are “mandatory” to complete before the player character may progress in the storyline or to advance to the next area, in terms of the overall experience, those quests are optional because by and large no one needs to play a computer game to survive; on the contrary, the player often pays for the game and buy in-game items and spend many hours playing it, sometimes with more passion and motivation to improve than doing their real job, even if the actions they do in the games are comparable to real life jobs:
⭐ Helping people, running errands
⭐ Investigating issues and solving problems
⭐ Charting the unknown, sharing discoveries
While some people do get paid to play games, the vast majority of the players do not. They play because it is fun. It is fun because they are optional: The player chooses to play when they want to.
A quest-based society redefines how a society functions by turning tasks that are good for society into voluntary quests.

Help hard, help smart, help happy
Provide basic access so people can get what they need by themselves and reward people who choose to do good by helping others. There was an interesting complaint about multiple responders. In a society where emergency response is funded by tax, when multiple response vehicles show up on the scene, it would appear wasteful: "If only one person is injured, why are we paying for both the ambulance and the fire truck to show up?" The interesting observation is that if the response was free and not funded by tax, the taxpayer wouldn't have complained. Having multiple responders going to the scene help ensure that one of them will arrive in time. Unless doing so causes other problems (e.g. traffic jam), the more the merrier. Is it possible for a government to provide redundant response that you don't need to pay for? The short answer is Yes. Have you ever been in a society where you raise your hand and a car comes to give you a ride? You mean like a taxi? But you pay for it. Do you pay for it if you are given a free ride ticket? No, but why would you be given a free ticket? For a car to operate or park in a city, the driver needs to collect these tickets. ...! But what if you need a ride again? The ticket is created every time you need a ride. It is free. But how is this related to medical response? For a hospital to claim the land it operates on, and be awarded special operation rights (e.g. ambulance speeding through traffic), it needs to collect enough tickets from helping people. They also need those tickets if they want to get supplies from pharmaceutical companies, because those companies need those tickets to claim the land for their factories and farmlands. Those tickets sound a lot like money. Is it not just money? You don't actually carry tickets on you. They are created when you need help. Does your society create money whenever a helper helps someone? Hold on, do you mean if I want to drive I must give people rides? It depends on the city. The more congested a city is, the more service requirement there is to park. In a highly congested city, you can only enter on a service vehicle. Parking is a privilege the driver needs to earn in a congested zone. If you can get help every time you need help, wouldn't people just don't bother doing anything for others? As long as someone wants your tickets, it is okay to be pampered. There is no shame in just being treated as VIP. Afterall you didn't choose to be born. But if you feel like you want to help people also you can do that too. No, I was asking, why would anyone help to begin with? If you live in a congested zone and you want the convenience to park there, then you need to help. If you need medical treatment, and the hospital has a wait list, the hospital prioritizes those who have tickets. You don't have to help unless you want tickets used for resolving scarcity. What about firefighters? You get tickets for training toward and helping fight fires. But if you are not injured, the tickets have no use. If the tickets are not useful to you you don't have to get them. If you think it is not worth your time helping that way you don't need to help. But since firefighting qualifies as emergency response, you could get more tickets per hour than doing routine help. So that if an emergency happens, it would be worthwhile to attend to the emergency first so that you don't miss the opportunity. It still doesn't answer why would anyone want tickets. Any land or unclaimed property is auctioned using tickets. If you want to switch to a better piece of land, you would be in competition against people who might have tickets. But if I am self-sufficient, then I don't need to help anyone? Correct. You don't. Congratulations and enjoy your life!

A donor who donates copper would get silver credits. What happens if the receiver who gets the copper give the copper back to the donor to redonate? Counter perspectives: Gaming the system for credits is fraud. Exploiting an existing loophole does not excuse the behavior, it will cancel any advantage that the fraudster tried to obtain when the fraud is detected. Quest society has an advantage in detecting and detering this type of fraud because both the donor and the recipient are registered user of the society. When a donor donates through quest society to help only one specific group, the system would flag it for fraud investigation. A quest society does not need to approve monetary help. If someone asks for monetary help, quest society might help a requester find a willing donor, but does not credit the donor for any silver because the usage of the money is unknown. There is no evidence that the transaction is a social good. Who gets / confirm requirements a design task is split? This is a topic on task quality comparing a society with paid consultants vs a society that assigns tasks, vs a quest society where the quester chooses the task. This is a quest/exercise of checking job descriptions and describe how that position would exist in a Quest Society. 202208162144|⚖️ Comparisons {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1452689697075912710","desc":"🔗 20211025"} {"id":"202208181056","parentid":"202207161423","parentname":"Philosophies","icon":"🎪","title":"Quest Society","subtitle":"Philosophy","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/01/18/16/46/hong-kong-1990268_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"Ivy","description":"","card-text":""}

Santorini New York is on sale. Could we get it?

Please don't XD You just got Santorini. But Santorini New York is supposed to be the better version. And it has the Statue of Liberty. I think we get around to playing another game, we would play a cooperative game. You can get a board game for admiration without playing it. That is the crux of the issue. XD That's not an issue. It is an appreciation of humanity by owning a piece of the culture.
Sasha: Let me put it this way. If something is on sale, it means that there are probbably too many of them. If no one gets them, they go to the trash. We are saving the earth by keeping it from going to the landfill. There is a big difference between buying a board game that is on sale and pre-order or funding a board game at a kick starter. That's actually quite compelling reasoning. I see that the bias in you is strong. It is not quite compelling. It is totally compelling. But if people like you keep buying, they will keep making regardless whether there was a kickstart. They put a discount on the retail price, but they are still probably making a good profit. They are probably putting them on sale because they need inventory space for more consumer items. Sasha's show of confidence is backfiring XD
Sasha: Okay, then tell me what I need to do to get that game. I thought we are trying to convince you not to. XD I am not promising anything, but could we sort or prioritize the board game inventory list? Why do you need me to sort them? Couldn't you just sort them by genre? I don't know what genre there are. Do we really care about the genre? I think we should just sort them by whether we would enjoy playing it. I worry that if we don't list them by genre, we would forget whether we have the game. 😅 How about each of you mark the game that you are most interested in? It's a trap. XD I think that is a fun exercise. 🙂 At the same time I will group them by genre Please keep the game list and make a copy. Okay.
Zoey: I found more unlisted board games. Hidden behind big boxes. XD Thank you! I was wondering whether we still have Sneaky Cards. This seems fun 😃 Since we discovered something fun, can we get Santorini New York? Are you not convinced that we should get rid of some games? I am willing to give away Dungeon! for Santorini New York That doesn't really reduce the number though. @StarTree, could you scan the murder mystery games for me? Roger! Sasha is so spoiled. XD
StarTree: For the record, there are 69 games on the list! I'll mark the games we plan to give away with a present 🎁! We should add the games that we lend to others on the list. So that we don't get duplicates... XD

So I've got an idea about Sasha's collection of board games. Why don't we set up a library of sort and let people borrow them? Since 99% of the time we are not playing with them. And I already talked to Sasha this morning and she was okay with it. So this thread is not about whether we may, but what to do next.

Zoey: I'm somewhat surprised that Sasha would okay it. I'm not entirely surprised because if that results in some games outside the guild, that would make room for the guild. That means Sasha can get even more stuff. XD This is like the opposite of banking. You're giving away stuff so that you can get more. I'm not giving them away. I'm just letting people borrow it. I'm not losing anything and I get more space and opportunity to get more. It is total Win-Win. That deserves a recognition. XD Sasha and Casey are recognized for Win-Win mindset. I think that is a good service. 😊 So is it correct that Sasha's motive is really just bargain shopping? I mean, you buy it, you don't play it, and you don't really care if it is around. See? There is nothing wrong with me. It is a socially good skill. I'm looking for good deals for everyone. OMG that's a herald skill. XD Sasha is recognized as a deal finder.
Casey: Should we post the whole list? There is no sign that there is a demand for borrowing board games. Maybe we should just post some up and see if there is a demand. Could we start with the ones we marked for donation... I posted 10 games, viewable to the smallest range of neighborhood, just in case there are too many messages.

Arcacianism

Good news: Our twitter post now shows up on google search when searching for "Arcacianism". But that has just about maxed out on search result from Twitter. Last time we added a tag to Cooking with Arcacia at Musecore, but that is not yet searchable. Even "Cooking with Arcacia" is not searchable. So...

Sasha: Let's first make Arcacianism a node and make the champion node for Arcacianism. I know they won't show up on Google, but we need that for other places to link to. I'll do that. 202208201022|Arcacianism 202208201038|Arcacia Next, I think we should try to tackle the most impactful tool: Google Search Console. We should learn what it is so that the blog itself is searchable. But that seems complicated so I think I need help studying it. Let's study that this weekend. 🤗
Zoey: By the way, I've just added the Arcacianism philosophy node to the Wayback Machine. Let's see if that helps make another search result at Google. Nice find! That makes it permenant! The page content is blank when I visit it at wayback. It seems like we can't use nodes if we want the content archived. Let me try Seed of Peace then... There is already a capture from Jul 27. That pretty much mean the sites at Wayback do not show on Google Search. But that was still a good try. Let's study Google Search console next. Sasha thanks all for helping to promote Arcacianism.
🕰️ [5:28 PM] 🕰️
Sasha: So, our findings from studying using Google Search Console for Blogspot is that for the content to be indexed, it has to be in a blogspot post. @Ivy. We have been converting the content from post to node. But the search engine does not crawl node content which is stored in pages. The crawler might not see post content we load from a node. Let's wait for a couple weeks before reevaluating. We don't know for sure whether the crawler can or cannot see node content. Wayback machine shows node 202208201022|content right now. I don't understand when it will or will not show. If I click on its calendar, I can see all the way to October posts. It is amazing how much it archives. Hmm... okay. Let's wait.

{"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/Arcacian%20Principle%2020221015-2.png?raw=true"}
Arcacianism is a moral view defined by its main principle of "letting people help each other and reward those who do". Arcacian values let people help voluntarily without using laws or social pressures to force them to help. Its values are compatible with autonomy, volunteerism, and freedom of association. How far can this go?

Key Views of Arcacianism

💟 Helping others is not a duty but an honorable virtue
💟 Being allowed to help one's self or others is a basic human right
💟 Preventing people from helping each others is a crime against humanity

Applying the Arcacian Principle

💟 Aim to help Aim to help all involved so everyone agrees.
💟 Act with love See the better selves of others and let your better self help their better selves.
💟 Act with humbleness If immediate agreement is not reached, but you believe that your deed is necessary, aim for eventual understanding and apologize, and be humble for the possibility of your error in judgement.

Black: If it is simple or take less than a minute, just do it. Black: Make a guide for your future self. Especially for rare but recurrent tasks.

1️⃣ Prioritize tasks: Make a to-do list and prioritize tasks based on their importance and urgency. Focus on completing the high-priority tasks first.
2️⃣ Break tasks into smaller chunks: Large tasks can be overwhelming, so break them down into smaller, more manageable tasks. This helps you stay motivated and makes it easier to track your progress.
3️⃣ Eliminate distractions: Identify and eliminate anything that distracts you from completing tasks. This might include turning off notifications on your phone or blocking certain websites during work time.
4️⃣ Schedule breaks: Take regular breaks to recharge and avoid burnout. This can help you stay focused and be more productive overall.
5️⃣ Learn to say no: It's important to learn to say no to non-essential tasks and requests that could take up valuable time. Prioritize your own tasks and don't be afraid to decline requests that don't align with your goals.
You can't manage time.
But you can manage yourself.

The ticket sections below should all move to the search list. Since it is hard to separate maintenance and cleaning, items or area that needs cleaning should be on this same list. Merge the rest of Wanted List here. I think consumables should be on a separate grocery list. Updated node format. Added the inventory section. Moved the Recycle section up. Should the Item list be here also? I would agree. Moved the RES section from wanted list to here, but the rest still need to be moved. Added search filters for 🍀Seeking and 🛒Buy.

Fix bike brakes
    Inflated rear tube There is a strange bobbing on the rear wheel after inflating. Inflating tire steps: loosen the nut. 20240608: Lubricated chain and gear. Exchanged the bike pump mounted on the frame.

🚲 20240414 Rear Tube. Casey: Fixed pinch flat on rear tube from running over debris.
🚲 20240330 Rear Tire and Tube. Rear tire was punctured by a piece of glass. Replaced tube without checking the tire and got it punctured again. Then replaced both the tube and the tire.
🚲 20240304 Rear Reflector. Reinstalled the rear reflector since the taillight is not reflective when it goes off.
🚲 20231209 Rear Tube. Hit a rock. Replace rear tube. Two rubes left. Ordering more. There is also some wear on the tire, ordering new tires also.
🚲 20231130 Rear Tube. Discovereda flat this morning. Replaced with another AR-Pro. This one lasted about 3 months.
🚲 20230829 Rear Tube. It was a pinch flat. The cracks on the greenbelt were very deep, but I heard the impact. The tube was immediately flat.
🚲 20230812 Both Tubes. I rode on the road and got flats on both tubes. Replaced today with AR-Pro. Only one spare tube left.
🚲 20230710 Front Tube. There was a flat since last week. It was replaced today with another AR-Pro. The tube had a puncture.
🚲 20230623 Front Tube. There was a flat from yesterday. Added ducttape liner in front wheel. Replaced front tire, and front tube with generic brand AR-Pro. Now the front and back are using the same tire
🚲 20230520 Bike Speed The trip is 1.2 miles and it normally takes 7 minutes, so the speed is just a little more than 10 miles per hour.
🚲 20230516 Chain Bag. Fixed the ripped chain bag with staples... Let's see how long that lasts.

🚲 20230310 Rear tube. The rear tube seems to have a small leak. It can still complete a trip after pumping. 20230321: Replaced the original inner tube liner with duct tape. Packed an inner tube that had a small puncture in the tire before adding another. Added teflon to valve stem and tightened. It seems that the tire can hold three tubes. Then it will become pretty much solid rubber. 20230322: Having two tubes on the rear feels heavy. Adding a third to see what happens, since the tube stem is too short to pump it properly.. It seems that the tube can fit more than three.
🚲 20230201 Front tube. Casey: Replaced with a value with 48mm stem. Casey: 20230215: Realized that the wheel was installed backward. Let's see if this tube lasts longer...
🚲 20221223 Front tube. Replaced front tube of the white bicycle. The brand is Bontrager. 36mm valve stem is almost too short for the nut, it is inconvenient to install.
🚲 20221031 Rear tube. The Sunlite tube has a problem where it loses pressure in a few hours. I have been pumping it every time. But tonight it won't stay inflated. It is leaking air from the loose presta valve core. I replaced the tube with the old brand (Bontrager) and may try to make a better seal with sunlite with teflon tape. Confirmed that the Sunlite tube had a puncture.
🚲 20221014 Rear tube. Replaced rear tube of the white bicycle. The brand is Sunlite.
🚲 20220829 Front tube and tire. Replaced front tire and tube of the white bicycle. The tire we got this time is way easier to install and it feels much better. I hope that it last longer also.

📺 20221019 Cable channel dropped. Tried re-activating the modem with phone app but did not work. Provider said the current plan is old and the only way is to get the same new plan or upgrade with increased price.
💨 20231028 Desk laptop fan Replaced the fan that has a broken blade with another one of similar size, but the noise is the same. The broken fan doesn't fit the new frame exactly. So... maybe I should swap just the fan but keep the frame so that both laptop fan stand has a fan without loose parts...The new fans have a molded case and cannot be removed. So now nothing has changed, but there is a second good laptop stand with fan.
💨 20231015 Squeaking Fan Detached fan blades, cleaned dust, applied WD-40.

The water heater is broken and needs to be replaced. There are options to: a) Just replace the control, b) replace the whole heater with a gas heater, c) replace the whole heater with an electric heater. How is the TCO? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlvCMzHX0KQ This tested good. Relighting pilot of the water heater. The pilot won't stay. Opening the cover! The components inside the thermostat are not visible. They are in another metal casing and it is not clear how to open it. When removing the thermstat, water starts to come up from the joint.

Archive car maintenance log Need a sign on how to dust the piano Laptop stand fan stopped working. There was no obvious way to take apart the fan to investigate, so I swapped the unit with a spare. Now we could low-key look for a replacement spare. The wheels are jammed with hair. These are two-color two-intensity LED clamp lamps with USB cord. This is an USB LED lamp with two light color and brightness settings and a clamp. The yellow light of one of the clamp lamps is not working. The yellow light wasn't working again and resolder the black wire behind the LED cover. Installed this for Mike after he said he needs one. Told him that this lamp broke and was fixed twice already. He said the lamp made it feels homey with the yellow light setting. Swapped LED lamps so we keep this one. Detaching this to bring to field, to replace the one installed for Mike. Detached this and reinstalled for where Silver 2 was. It is musical chair. XD Now this is the one installed for the other team. This clamp lamp is different from the other 3 because it has push buttons instead of toggle switches. This lamp does not work with a foot switch (When it has power, it does not automatically turn on. You have to push a button.) This one is installed at the microwave but it is seldomly used. This is the one with two LED tubes. This lamp does not have yellow setting. It is now installed where Black 1 was. That location is seldomly used. Added magnets. Disassembled, transporrted and reassembled the piano bench. Washing muddy shoes. Tidied cloud castle. The heater doesn't turn on. The draft inducer motor turns on but stops immediately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRvH-io-ZtA The inducer motor capacitor (located behind the lower panel) measures 5 uF. It is good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8qcw6fSPLQ The heater turned on. Maybe it was just not cold enough earlier. Replaced HVAC air filter. Cleaned ceiling fans by removing the blades and washing them. Tuned this violin. Sorted the magnets and applied to the tent to fix the cover. Tidying sauce drawer and utensil drawer. Maintenance: Clean dryer vent. Picked up two blue dryer balls from trash. Why would you throw them away? 20141113 Relocated to be set up as a display. Cleaned and set it up for use. Picked up a shelves system to be assembled once more space is freed up in the garage. Rearranged garage furniture to make room for more bicycles. Tidying garage. Replaced one sink with a new unit with a sieve as experiment. Replaced a shower head with a broken plastic connector. The clip is also worn and replaced. Need a metal replacement. Replaced the worn plastic shower head with a new metal one. Keep the reception desk area clear. A small pair of yellow scissors is transferred to cardnal field. This is a small C-clamp that is in the field right now. Where should this go? This fan is unused and needs its fan covered for storage. Already covered and set aside. This fan is getting entangled with hair again. I think it either needs a hair filter or be relocated. Removing hair from the fan shaft. So, what should be done? Add a filter screen? Change location? I want to see what happens with a filter. Why not just use a bladeless fan? That fan already has a filter. The bladeless fan needs a remote to turn on. It is less convenient. And I am curious. 気になります。XD I am going to tape some used dryer sheets as filter... The output becomes noticeably weaker. Maybe we should measure the power consumption and compare with the bladeless fan. I think the output with the filter is acceptable. Replaced dryer sheet filter with book stand wire mesh held by wire twists, so that it can be disassembled and reassembled without using any tape. Low Speed: 22 Watts. High Speed: 30 Watts. The small square fan got entangled with hair and couldn't rotate. I hope the motor is not burnt. Removed entangling hair. Right now the fan can start at high speed, but at low speed, it starts too slowly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBGvrJQBzKE I just let it run for a bit. Now it can start at slow also. We'll see if the issue returns. Cool speed 1: 4 Watts. Speed 10: 22 Watts. The square fan may go to the garage. Fixed the leaky hot water valve again. Applied the rubber ring on top of the valve before installing the retainer nut. 20230109: Kitchen faucet has been leaking 20230425: Took apart cartridge and identified the exact part that needs to be replaced. It was a bowtie-shaped gasket that is torn. The part number of the whole cartridge is Price Pfister F036CL4S, dated "01-20-11". Tried fixing the gasket with teflon tape and super glue but it still leaks. 20230427: Replaced the cartridge of the cold side. There might still be a small leak on the hot side. Will wait and see if that is acceptable. 20230428: Replaced the cartridge on the hot side also. No leak now. 20230726: The hot side can be overturned and whistles. Ordering a replacement cartridge. Need to update the mailing directory Updated nametag. Need to pack Mini display to HDML adapter. Need another sleeve for clipper. I think we can just make a sleeve. The thick black jacket has a velcro strip that needs sewing This is about what to bring when dining out. Medicine/Vitamins: Some vitamins need to be taken with food. Taking them with empty stomach could cause nausea. Apple: I like ending a meal with an apple. Since most restaurants won't have that I bring my own. Floss/toothpicks The telescoping magnet stick lost its magnet. Does it need to be replaced? I think there are enough around.We could do with one fewer. But where could the magnet have gone? Could it be left somewhere we should retrieve? True. @StarTree. Posted reminder to look for the magnet at field log! It's a BOLO! XD Could not find the lost magnet on the magnet stick. I am looking for lunch ingredients container, preferably stable and opens like a small cupboard. What about a camera bag? It is stackable, although it opens on the top. これはどう? https://www.amazon.com/Insulated-Durable-Lunchbox-Children-School/dp/B0CKT8GCFD I miss the handle buckle. I am considering getting the dollar store thin black bag for emergency supply. This lunch bag is a little small and opens in an inconvenient way. Since it is a lunch box it is also thicker than other bags, making it also inconvenient for storing other things. I was planning to donate it unless someone has a good idea on how to use this. This seems to be either a perfect fit or just a bit too smaller for a to go box. I wouldn't trust putting the entire to go box in it since a to go box could leak. I would like to confirm if this bag can fit a to go box. The square lunch box fits the takeout box perfectly. Added name tag. Where are the walking sticks? Are they collapsible? Recycling has its own node. If you are trying to look up how to recycle something in general, please try 202310081444|there. Recycled the bed bag. So I tried this bracelet. The magnet is so weak it is not useful. I think it can be donated. Bring magnet bracelet. This was found and I will try. The magnet doesn't seem strong enough. The golf equipment needs tidying. Cleaned. There is an extra jogging machine. Kitchen floor needs cleaning. Cleaning floor. Floor cleaning. Moved extra sand display to bathroom. Moved extra hanging decor to bathroom. Carpet needs cleaning. Cleaning carpet. Should dust wrap the extra monitor in the garage. Should probably confirm that the monitor works. Already covered and set aside. Moved an extra monitor to the garage. Folded up the extra round chair and stored it under a sofa. Deflated the exercise ball and stored in its box with its pump. Moved extra desk to garage. Moved extra shelves to garage. There is still an old, possibly dead car battery that needs to be disposed. Brought old batteries to hazardous collection. There was no charge for the disposal. Added a second bell. Now there is one on each side. Green: found a tear on the seam of right side bag flap. Installed lamp front and rear LED lamps. The lock stopped working. Replaced it with a spare cable and a standalone padlock. It seems harder to use. We still have a spare bike lock but that has password lock. If needed we can swap it. Added a mount for the lock. Hopefully it won't get in the way of riding. Lubricated the chain since it was making noises. This bike has a rearview mirror. Tried the short seat last week but it was not as comfortable. Donated the short seat. Inflated both tires. Added lubrication. Added lubrication The key lock jammed this morning. This can happen after rain got into the lock. Used WD-40 to unjam it. Reinflated rear tube Inflated both tubes Inflated white rear tube yesterday Inflated White rear tube yesterday. Again. Pumped rear tube yesterday again. I think it is due to cold weather, but why only the rear tube? Pumped the rear tube last night. It was raining. Pumped the rear tube again this morning. Pumped rear tube. Moved new bed. Moved stained bed to landfill. Installed light bulbs for spotlights. Moved burnt light bulbs to hazardous waste collection. Moved beds, desk, shelves. 202310151140|🧰 Handy Skills {"id":"202208212113","parentid":"202310232341","parentname":"Guild House","icon":"🧰","title":"Maintenance","subtitle":"Quest Log","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/06/20/17/17/tools-2423826_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"Casey","description":"","card-text":""}

Magic Bakery

We finished reading Fate Core a few days ago. What should we read next?

Sasha: How about the Mice & Mystics game manual? So that we could continue the game? I think it is better if we read that with a computer so we can take notes without reading it twice.
LRRH: Are you only considering PDFs that you can read on a phone? The guild bookcase still has many books unread. Digital only. XD
Ivy: I think it isn't really a good idea to read/study at lunch. Even if you take notes at lunch, you are esentially taking notes twice when you type it up on a computer. It is not efficient. Can't you just remember what you read and type it up later? XD That would normally disrupt a person's focus for the rest of the day.
Ledia: Maybe the lunch hour is more suited for tasks related to Cardinal Quest, such as planning what to do after lunch. I think normally we already know what we will do after lunch.
StarTree: Lunch time is good for memorizing lyrics! That only works because you aren't eating XD You don't have to sing out loud ⭐ If we read, at least we have something to discuss. If we memorize lyrics, we would just be doing our own thing separately.
Tanya: I see news as a good substitude because we don't normally need to take notes for news. I don't want to read the news in detail. It is too boring XD
Ivy: If there is no good idea, it might be best to just cut the lunch time shorter and continue. Then the lunch time study is dead. XD You can still study, I am just saying doing so at lunch is not efficient.
Vivi: You could read Magic Bakery content and log bugs. Lunch time proof-reading club. XD
Tanya: Maybe lunch time is good for short discussion. We could think of a topic and just discuss. That's still inefficient without a computer, and it is inefficient to use a computer while eating.
Sasha: I have a very crazy idea. What if we simply don't eat in the field? We eat before we go. If you are eating just once a day anyway then you can do it. I think the meal will be too early. That would be a difference between just breakfast or just lunch. I think the timing will be almost the same. Are we talking about getting food at the field but eat it the next day? I know there is a refrigerator, but... 😅 And I like eating in the field. We get to see other people. 😅
Ivy: Tanya's idea seems the best to me. @Arena is picking up some momentum. We need some good questions to highlight the differences among the philosophies. As we read the news, we can come up with the question we can use for Arena. The most important thing is for us to confirm that our philosophies can be applied objectively in those situations. We should be able to reach a point where the news doesn't bring any new challenge to our philosophies, then we can work on the gamification aspect.

Title

鈴木みのり「夜空」

Lyrics

昨日よりもきっと 強くなれるかな
そんな言葉繰り返し
ちっぽけな 心を試してる
Kinou yori mo kitto tsuyoku nareru ka na
Sonna kotoba kurikaeshi
Chippoke na kokoro wo tameshiteru
I wonder if I can surely become stronger than yesterday
I've repeated those words
To test my tiny heart
言葉はいらない 顔を上げ
夜空を旅しよう
Kotoba wa iranai kao wo age
Yozora wo tabi shiyou
I don't need those words, I simply look up
And travel in the night sky
僕らが描いた未来は 遥か遠い道の途中
涙も 笑顔も 分かち合えたらいいね
Bokura ga egaita mirai wa haruka tooi michi no tochuu
Namida mo egao mo wakachiaetara ii ne
We are still on the way to the future we drew in the distance
It'd be nice if we could share our tears and smiles
遠く光る空の彼方 探したいものがあるなら
信じよう 一人じゃないから 歩き出せる
Tooku hikaru sora no kanata sagashitai mono ga aru nara
Shinjiyou hitori janai kara arukidaseru
Beyond the distant, sparkling sky, lies the thing we want to search for
Let's believe, we can walk out because we aren't alon

離れないよ ぎゅっと誓う
小さな手 結ぶ星座
Hanarenai yo gyutto chikau
Chīsana te musubu seiza
We won't be separated, swearing to hold each other tight
With our small hands, we connect our constellations
藍色の向こうに 約束したんだ
たぶん絆は 少しずつ 降り積もっていくもの
Aiiro no mukō ni yakusoku shita n da
Tabun kizuna wa sukoshi zutsu furitsumotte iku mono
We promised this to the distant indigo color
Little by little, our many bonds will gradually pile up
僕らが見つめる世界は 憧れに輝き変える
願いも 迷いも 照らし合えたらいいね
Bokura ga mitsumeru sekai wa akogare ni kagayakikaeru
Negai mo mayoi mo terashiaetara ii ne
The world we gaze at, will change into a radiant longing
It'd be nice if we could compare our wishes and doubts
交差してる 時の彼方 叶えたいものがあるから
焦がれよう 夜空を彩る 星みたいに
Kousa shiteru toki no kanata kanaetai mono ga aru kara
Kogareyou yozora o irodoru hoshi mitai ni
Beyond the time we cross paths, because there is something I want to grant,
Let's yearn for it like stars that color the night sky

消えないように 消さないように 確かめ合いながら
めぐり会う 双曲線 同じ時間(とき) 越えよう
Kienai youni kesanai youni tashikameai nagara
Meguriau sou kyokusen onaji toki koeyou
While making sure we can't disappear or be erased,
Let's cross over the meeting hyperbola at the same time

This node define terms for discussing the meaning of freedom. The term 'Freedom' has many meanings as used by different philosophies. Here Freedom and its immediately related terms are defined as they are used in this blog Magic Bakery. By having this fixed definition, this blog can then compare and contrast the set of liberties that different philosophies claim to support. Lazy philosophy happens when people just use a word because it sounds good without objectively defining what the word means. That could result in situations where some common expressions lose their meaning. https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1860961748909736019 This is the list of preferred definition of the words at Magic Bakery. This set of definition is preferred because it allows common expressions to be meaningful. Ability is the range of considerations and actions a being is capable of performing. If you have cooking skills, then you have the ability to cook. This doesn't imply that you will cook, you want to cook, or you are allowed to cook. Access is the range of effects that a being may reach if they exercise their abilities. Having access does not imply having persmission: A thief who can pick a lock to steal a bicycle is said to have access to the bicycle, even when the bicycle was locked and stealing is illegal. Freedom is the range of access that a being may partake without receiving retaliation. This definition means that even if the law allows a person to buy bread, if the person would be bullied by their neighbors for doing so, the person is not free to buy bread. This also means that without law enforcement, a person is said to be free to commit crimes. Liberty is the range of freedom that a person or a group recognizes to not violate. When a city gives people the liberty to enter or exit, it means that the city will not retaliate against any person from just entering or exiting. Having liberty from one group doesn't mean that a person has liberty from all groups. If the person will be retaliated upon outside the city once they exit, the person still does not have freedom to exit. Right is the range of freedom that a person or group recognizes not only to not violate, but to provide for free. To distinguish between liberty and a right, when a city declares that people have a right to exit, it means that the city will help the person exit if the person does not have the ability to do so. For example, if a city is guarded by a heavy gate, when a person tries to exit, the city guards will open the gate without charging the person a fee. If the city only promised liberty to leave, it means that the person may open the gate themself to leave, without making a promise that anyone would help them. Liberty vs rights https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1867281655003852904 Are rights agreements? https://twitter.com/rubaddict/status/1798525701655761348 https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1799477661808656890 In the MB definition, rights are a promised amenity. It is not an agreement because a right can be offered unilaterally. A city declares and gives people rights regardless of whether you like to receive that right. If you don't like it, you could simply not invoke that right. The concept expressed in the original post https://x.com/ThePholosopherX/status/1798501584923762920 can be expressed differently: It is possible for a constitution to violate your autonomy. The concept of autonomy exists regardless of a society's stance towards it. A right is not an agreement. https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1860962674626232799 ⭐ Freedom is not always "good" In this definition, freedom is an objectively measurable description of what a being can do without retaliation. An unopposed Tyrant enjoys a high degree of freedom. That does not imply that the Tyrant's actions are "good". Freedom by itself is a neutral term.
⭐ Freedom is violated if access is restricted. A person who cannot fly is said to be free to fly to another place if transportation is provided to effect the result. An argument that "You don't have a means to escape, but since I am not stopping you from trying to find a means to escape (which does not exist for you), you are still free" is invalid.
⭐ Simply letting others be may not be enough to grant them freedom If a community advertises "everyone is free to have one house", it implies that as long as a person wants a house, they would be given a house even when they contribute nothing in building it. If there are actually enough houses for everyone, but there is no retaliation for owning one house, the advertisement wording would be "everyone is free to compete for and own one house."
⭐ Freedom may be violated for justice. Since freedom is a neutual term, the practice of "justice" routinely violates a being's freedom. A tyrant might say, "If you don't let me murder political dissenters, you are limiting my freedom." Whereas reciprocative justice would say, "Because you (the tyrant) is willing to murder political dissenters, othere are allowed to murder you as a political dissenter. When this situation arise, it means that there is no liberty to murder political dissenters.
☀️ Conceptual Self-test

Conceptual Self-test

⭐ Anna is brought to a room where the only doorway of escape is rigged with a contraption that would electrocute her if she tries to open it. Is Anna free to leave? No, because the contraption creates a retaliation force against her leaving. The existence retaliation force does not require intentionality. It doesn't take a villain for a person to have their freedom limited. Nature or the situation can do that already.
⭐ What is one thing that can be changed about the scenario above so that Anna is free to leave? If there is a button to disable the electricity and Anna is informed and understand that she can push it when she wants to leave. If she is capable of leaving by breaking through the wall. This doesn't excuse the "villain" for bringing her to that place. The villain can be violating Anna's liberty to leave but fail in actually trapping her. Imposed costs violates freedom regardless whether the subject can afford to pay the cost. So if Anna was brought to the room against her will, the effort she exerts to overcome the situation make it not free, even if she is allowed or compensated thereafter.

Crystal Cavern Quest Grand Lair needs to be charted. This is Tanya calling for Cardinal Quest. Who is in? Let's do it! XD The Grand Lair is a submarine network of tunnels that connects the waterways of an undercity to a ley node, then to a vortex power core. The goal of this quest is to survey the tunnels so that the power core can be harnesed to power the city. The structure of this quest follows Skyle's suggestion of EPIC. P here could stand for principles and precautions. For Precautions, we could summarize ways we could get a TPK so we can avoid them. Another meaning of EPIC quest. My main concern is that the leylines may not handle the overall power. We haven't confirmed the ley node's power, and the plan to route messages through the city might be a vulnerable point. I worry more the location of the substation in the city. How crowded is the city? Are we picking a logical place? Vladanya said we should confirm if we are overestimating the power. My concern is whether the tunnel would collapse where it leaves the ley node. It would make me feel more confident if we could stress test a replica. Each point of precaution needs to be investigated. This section is for reporting the investigation results. I am very curious what the C section would be. I think it can be "Charting", or we can find a better term along the way. A concern was whether the service line from the city to the ley node is too small. So I go to the node to see it for myself. Red finds that the Ley Node has its own crew and maintains the node locally. It doesn't need any material from the city. It only needs the messages. Is it okay to route the messages through the city? Is the path too long? The difference in distance between our plan and the pilot city is about 5 times as long as before. Looking up the messenger familiar's abilities. I couldn't find any definite limit, only general guidelines to avoid interference. I think they can normally go way longer distance. If it doesn't work, we could change to a more direct path. The concern was about the location of the substations, checking the maps: I found that one of the substations was being planned wrong. Substation 2 is not supposed to be in the city, but in the cave with the ley node. Other than that, I think we should avoid having the substation on the other side of the river. It was always a pain to go across the bridges. So we do want the city side to be more crowded even though there is more space across the bridge. XD 🤷‍♀️ The pilot avoided placing the substation in the city! I think that city space is reserved for future development. We should just do the same as the pilot to be consistent. I side with avoiding foreseeable conflict and being consistent. I double checked the stats and the sizing seems correct. So overall we had done this three times: 1) For Arsenal; 2) Based on the pilot; 3) This double check. This is about whether tunnel gate would crack under pressure. I don't remember if we have some prototype we could test with. I will check on Monday. I think the concern on this issue should be quite low because the method is tried. If I recall correctly we used to use them. I wouldn't be so sure unless I see it for myself. We don't really have a plan B if it doesn't work. StarTree has requested testing resources! I checked. We never had such prototype to test with. And StarTree couldn't get help! There are about six areas to chart. Take your pick. XD We did about 6 out of 13 areas. {"id":"202208250038","parentid":"202209031718","parentname":"Herald","icon":"🎪","title":"Cardinal Quest","subtitle":"Gamifying Peacemaking","kids":"","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/03/10/03/49/red-velvet-cake-4917734_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"Cardinal"}

Could we afford to check Owl Forest before switching gear to plan for Dawn Island?

Ledia: We are losing vision of the status of every ongoing Cardinal Quest.
Sasha: That sounds like the type of work for Magic Detectives to tackle.
Tanya: My plan is to upgrade Cardinal Quest to have the map to handle it. But that is going slowly.
Ledia: I think we are going slow due to the assumption that we cannot update that in the field.
Tanya: I don’t think that is an assumption. There needs to be some separation. I find that answer unsatisfying.

Evelyn: Should I sort Arsenal or Dawn Island? Let's work on the Mist Cancellator since Vladanya is here. Vladanya has better seer skills that I want to learn.
Tanya: @StarTree, how many quest hours did we complete today?
StarTree: 3!
Tanya: Could you add a tracker for the overall quest hours including those beyond Arsenal? Done!
Tanya: Next I think we should work on Dawn Island, the leyline lattice. I'll use spreadsheet because I think we need to compare the lattice.

The price of Santorini New York kept dropping since last week. So could we get it now? If it is from an inventory, I would think someone really @WISH to sell it.Or else they might really go to the trash. @Ivy.

Ivy: Why exactly are you tagging me? This is as close as it gets from saving it from landfill. Do I get your blessing for getting something that has plastic? ... You shouldn't be indecisive. You told us a condition and the condition is met. If there are more conditions, what are they? You need to tell me. I don't have any objection... Except... if you are really thinking about saving it from the landfill, then it doesn't matter who buys it. So, you could help by advertising that it is on sale, then someone will probably buy it after seeing your ad. Brutally true XD Sasha has taken a critical hit. But if I also get it, it would increase my happiness. I doubt that happiness would last very long.
Evelyn: I don't think we normally play competitive games. 😅 Maybe we can turn that into a cooperative game. We still have Mice & Mystics and apparently *someone* got the expansion even though we haven't finished chapter 1 of the first game. XD
Ivy: Time is the most sarce resource. I'm off to do something else. Is it me or did Ivy kill three clubs in a roll: The LEGO Club, the Reading Club, and the Board Game Club. Do you feel pity for me now? If you really want to play something you could play Cardinal Quest. Cardinal Quest is behind. I would rather do Arena. May I ask why? Cardinal Quest has so many restrictions on what we can talk about. In Arena at least we can talk about everything. I see.
LRRH: Then could you help me respond to people's comments for Arena? Is that a condition for getting Santorini New York? I throught we have that already? That's Santorini classic. And we haven't played it XD Okay I give up. I don't want to have to explain it all over again. It is futile. There is nothing to explain. It is impulse bargain shopping. The more something is on sale, the more you are drawn to it. XD
Evelyn: Red, what do you need help with?
LRRH: Do you think that a philsophy on peace making should be able to answer how it deals with scarcity? If a philosophy does not have a way to deal with scarcity, then when that happens, the community is vulnerable to reverting to a method they knew, and that could overturn the philosophy. That means the philosophy that can't deal with scarcity are weaker than those that can deal with it. What is the link to the post? Post. I take issue with the word "fear". I don't think one can evaluate a philosophy without understanding what its boundaries are. I think... if you feel offended you shouldn't reply. 😖 Or you should wait until you have a reply that is cheerful. Little Red Riding Hood grounds herself for not having a more cheerful reply. 🐣 😅 XD

Someone is asking for how and why pursue Quest Society. What is the official answer? The Tweet.: The quest society sounds interesting for a potential transitional stage towards a communal society. But I do wonder how or why it would be implemented with humanity as it currently exists.

Ivy: Arg. You are rambling Little Red Riding Hood is grounded for rambling. 🐣
Tanya: I think the plan is to upgrade the blog and vet the content before replying. Red is impatient XD I though they want an answer so I started replying, and I kept replying as long as the thought comes to me. You are wasting people's time when you do that.
Evelyn: I think Red's worry that a good idea is not shared is legitimate, but we also have to consider whether the other people would receive it.

Philosophy Comparison

Unwanted work

Suppose there is work that people don't want to do. How does your philosophy get that work done?

Suppose there is work that people don't want to do. How does your philosophy get that work done?

Capitalism

You can pay more until someone is willing to do it. If no one else wants to do that and you need it done, do it yourself. You don't have a right to force others to do it for you.

202208181056|Quest Society

People are normally allowed to barter, volunteer, or come to a mutual agreement (such as taking turns) on who shall do the work. For tasks that are social good, Quest Society offer an additional system where the doers may earn credits.

Prosocialism

Prosocialism fosters joy in doing good so that there is no good deed that is unwanted. As long as a deed is good, a prosocialist would be glad to do it even when doing so would free up those who would be deemed responsible in traditional justice. 💬

Comparison: Does your philosophy give you a right to force innocent people to do unwanted work?

No

Capitalism |
Honorism |
Prosocialism |
Quest Society |
Stewardism

Comparison: Does your philosophy have a mechanism that allows a person to systematically make others do unwanted work?

Yes

Capitalism allows a capital owner who has enough market or capital pressure on others to do unwanted work. But there is no simple path for that to actually happen. So in reality this is not something you need to worry about. Ivy: Objection: Enclosure pressure is happening in reality. It doesn't take a single business controlling the market to create that pressure. Businesses can implicitly collude to create a joint pressure for cheap labor. This pressure exists in capitalistic society even when there is no tax and no welfare because The power to create that pressure comes from allowing extended ownership of land / resources.

No

Quest Society maintains open access areas as a foundation of autonomy. There is no means for a person to exclude people from supplying themselves. Whereas a capitalist could own enough land, and give the tenants no choice but to provide not only for themselves but also for the landlord.
Stewardism awards stewardship to people who make life affordable. If an unwanted work is tied to living affordability (such as cleaning the sewage of a city), the worker has priority to live in that city. It is illegal to hire a maintenance person to do maintenance work without also giving them the option to part of the community they maintain.
Honorism awards honor to those who do good deeds, more so to do who voluntarily step up to do good deeds that people normally are unwilling to do. Honorism promotes this behavior by recognitions, although many honorable people do not expect or rely on such recognitions and would do good without any external acknowlegement.
Prosocialism

How does your philosophy promote good deeds?

202208271106|Victim Blaming
2022 AUG 27 SAT 11:06 AM
Magic Bakery

If you want to describe causality, how do you do so without sounding victim-blaming? Twitter

LRRH: That thread has this scenario: An adult is trying to steal things from hosues, and is able to do at houses where the child would open the door by themselves. If someone asks, "Why is the adult able to rob at Child A's house, but not Child B's house?" What is a non-victim-blaming way of answering it? For example, that thread said the word "enabled" should not be used as in this sentence, "Child A enables the crime by opening the door."
Evelyn: How about the crime happens at child A's house because the door is open? But it was not, until the child open it. You are omitting a factor in the casaulity.
Zoey: I don't think there is a way out when the mind of the accuser is set. Why do you think they pick that post as a target but not others? There must be a difference. The difference is just that "enable" implies volition to some people. But what I am saying is people who would latch onto you would not consider there are different dictionaries and neutral usages. You can't explain your way out. It is just something, a dialect, that you need to learn before you comment on a subject you don't normally discuss. 🐣 But how do you talk about it in that dialect? I don't know. Maybe you can't. XD Your focus on the victim was the issue. Say if the criminal only targets men but not women, you can't say "The crime happens in that alley because the victim happens to be a man.", and defintely not "The crime was enabled when the man entered the alley". XD You could only say "The criminal targets men."
Zoey: So in the scenario maybe you could say, "The criminal targets those who open the door." But as you as you suggest, "let's have a protocol to not open the door", you shall expect to be called victim-blaming. The point is the victim should be allowed to keep every habit they have and not be attacked. You may offer to patrol the street, but you can't tell anyone who is innocent to change any behavior as a counter measure. They are not responsible to make any adjustment to reduce a crime. I don't have an agenda of reducing crime. I was just asking based on casuality and description.
Tanya: People make quick assumptions when you enter a thread. Outside the thread, unless you are a detective not knowing the fact that the Child opened the door, The difference is obvious and does not warrant repeated mention. ...
Evelyn: Why did you reply there to begin with? Because to me the word enable is neutral. I don't think the tweeter deserve the accusations. I wanted the tweeter know that they aren't alone and I understand them and can believe that they are innocent. I think that is a commendable trait. 🤗 Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for the cleric skill You are not alone. Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the advices.

Dawn Island

202208272122|PIN 202208272122

Quest

The old status are due for upgrades. The islanders are waiting.
⭐ Where would the islanders put their crystal?
The statues are ancient and their records seem incomplete. Can we find the exact location where the islanders shall add their crystal?
⭐ Prepare magic items to send to the island
We have never dealt with the type of crystal that the islander will use, but we have examples of how they are used in newer statues.
⭐ Create new scroll to reenchant the main crystal.
With the reference and the latest record of existing enchantment, make a new scroll. We already found the existing enchantment and a reference. We just need to merge them.

Cardinal Quest

We are heading toward an imminent emergency at Dawn Island. Cardinal HQ is requesting assistance.

Tanya: @StarTree, Status report please. There are 500 quest hours remaining, where Dawn Island has 22!
Zoey: This is a recap of what has been going on, that we have never mentioned: Dawn Island has very old barriers due for an upgrade. It had been upgraded a number of times before but it was difficult to know what condition they are to design the new upgrades. Actually we don't even know what the statues look like in general. XD That's unacceptable. Knowing what it is should be the first rule. @StarTree could you find a picture? StarTree: **StarTree finds a picture** It is actually not much different from the newer statues, just... smaller? They should be about the same overall length. The container of the its crystal just didn't extend all the way. I see. That would have been important to us if we needed to add to that box. But I think yesterday we confirmed that we didn't need to add any big component. But the Islander would still need to add something. It is best if we know exactly where they would add it. But our priority is to do what only we can do. I think we need a scrapbook to gather and share what we know. Especially images inside the box. @StarTree, could you start a node for Dawn Island quest? Added! 202208272122|Dawn Island
Tanya: I added some quest details. For the location, we only need a rough idea of the location so that the leylines would have approximately correct length. It would be best to design the attachment for the crystal but that might not be necessary. I think that's all we aim to finish today. Gather information about the position for a scrapbook. By the end of tomorrow we must define all leylines so the kit can be crafted. Understood. And I like this new quest card. It is very clear what we need to do. Thank you.
Evelyn: It seems we lost connection to the archive. 😖 There is no known maintenance scheduled! This is bad. We might need to go to camp tomorrow. I hope that it will restore soon. We'll check again tomorrow morning. If it is still down then we go. It is up now! Security protocol seems to have changed but StarTree fixed it! 😊 Good job.

StarTree, Status please. Last night, evelyn and Zoey couldn't confirm whether two of the newer statues have a required shard!

Zoey: I think we have exhausted all paths on information we could gatther by ourselves. We need help. Vladanya warned us about this. I will ask someone now. 😖 I'm updating the Magic Item list.
Sasha: While you are questing, just a quick announcement that Cooking with Arcacia is now searchable, but still no sign that any page from the blog is searchable. You could make a post for Arcacianism. Like the one I made for Quest Society. Okay. Um... You are already using the Arcacian principle at the Quest Society page. There is no trademark. And Quest Society was designed to implement Arcacianism with quantitative accounting. Then if I make a post for Arcacianism, could you change your subtitle to something like "A quantitative implementation of Arcacianism"? I want to see if Google will show both pages. Actually I want to avoid mentioning "Arcacianism" in Quest Society, because that term is too alien. Defector XD But I would add it with the hide tag to see if Google will pick it up. Okay.
🕰️ [9:45 PM] 🕰️
Ledia: I am out of MP. P4 sings song of regeneration. P4 receives StarTree, Status?
StarTree: Ledia discovered a monster hideout, it has 14/21 remaining chambers to secure! Evelyn casts protect.
Zoey: I'll start scouting from the end. Zoey swiftly scouted and closed off 4 sections. 10/21 sections remain.
Evelyn: I think I can seal room 7 and 8. Actually I need P4. 😅 💟
Cardinal: Evelyn and P4 found a joint chamber spawning dozens of low level dire rats. I cast Sleep. Roll with advantage please. Evelyn: (Sleep: ➕➖).
Cardinal: Evelyn's sleep spell managed to cover both chambers and all the dire rats are asleep in silence. In our lore, what are dire rats? 😅
Cardinal: Evelyn knows as an adventurer that Dire Rats as a monster type are being that do not belong to this world but look like giant rats as they mimic natural life forms in this world. When they are KO'ed their energy return to their world of origin. Ok. 😊
P4: P4 uses Cat's Craddle on the Dire Rats in chamber 7.
Cardinal: In the dim chamber, glowing red threads shuttled among the Dire Rats as if a magic circle is being drawn. Except this was a purely physical attack orchestrated by P4 and her clones. P4's Cat Craddle KO's 12 Dire Rats in chamber 7. 9/21 chambers remain
P4: P4 does the same in chamber 8.
Cardinal: As the red thread glows in chamber 8, P4, roll one dice please. P4: (???: ➖). (P4:➖, Clone1:➕. Clone2:➕. Clone3:➖)
Cardinal: six of the Dire Rats that seemed to be asleep ambushed P4 and her clones. The two elder clones dodged, but the real P4 and the little clone were hit. P4's Protect is OFF.
P4: I trigger the incomplete Cat's Craddle.
Cardinal: P4's thread KO's 5 of 11 Dire Rats, there, but a chaotic melee fight began broken out as a 6 vs 3, with the little P4 clone still stunned from the ambush. I cast Blind on the Dire Rats. Roll two dice please. Evelyn: (Blind: ➕➖)
Cardinal: The Dire Rats are temporarily blinded, while the little P4 clone woke up. Evelyn is recognized for the skill Blind, Rank B. Assassinate. P4 and her clones KO's the remaining 6 Dire Rats. 8/21 chambers remain.
Zoey: I closed off some chambers but found a new chamber.
Cardinal: Zoey adds the newly discovered chamber on the map. 3/19 chambers remain. I think chamber 16 is the boss room. Let's do that last. I will scout and clear chamber 15. I'll finish chamber 4 then meet you there.
Cardinal: In chamber 4 has six Gnolls. What level? Level 2. I pwn them. Ledia clears chamber 4. 2/19 chambers remain. The pressure XD Zoey clears chamber 15. 1/19 chambers remain.
Cardinal: In the last chamber is a single Troll with 4 hit points. Should I just shoot at it? I might be able to one shot it. XD I'm in position. Be my guest. True Shot, Barrage. XD Roll 5 dice with advantage please. (Ranged: ➕➕➕➕➖) XD
Cardinal: As Zoey's barrage hits the troll, the troll explodes into a cloud of dark smoke. You hear fluttering sound of bats flying away. Faerie Fire. XD It is now Ledia's turn. How many exits are there? You don't know for sure and it is dimly lit. (Chain Lightning: ➕➕➕➕)
Cardinal: Ledia use chain lightning to its maximum effect, but there were significantly more bats remaining flying out through a vent in the ceiling. I think we screwed up. XD Hunter's Mark. Are they flying outside? I signal for anyone outside to be on alert. StarTree is still UP! StarTree roll two dice for perception please. StarTree: (Perception: ➕➖)
Cardinal: Alone above the hideout, StarTree got the alert form Zoey and could feel the cauldron of bats surging up an opening from her root sense a distance away. StarTree is recognized for Root Sense.
StarTree: StarTree summons hallucination spore at the hole! What is the intended effect? It makes them wander about slowly for a long time until they are attacked!
StarTree can you finish them? XD StarTree doesn't know what to do!
Sasha: Pixie. Zoey, Ledia and Sasha are exhausted. They are now KO'ed. WHY, Sasha, I was about to wrap out and finish them! XD What about the bats? Shouldn't they KO too? Pixie stands for PXC which means Player Exhaustion Check. It does not affect NPC. ... Sorry I was too tired... Good night, team! It's all yours, StarTree, finish them please.
StarTree: Proto Dawn Island, Coordinate H-01. Cauldron of Hallucinated Bats. Starfall!
Cardinal: Bright stars descend from the sky all the way from Orbital Command. As it reaches the cloud of bats, the cloud is sucked into the start and then disappears with it. Proto Dawn Island trial is complete. 6 quest hours has been cleared.

202207252158|◀ 2022 AUG 29 MON 10:26 PM
Carrot Studio

What reward do you want for helping? What rewards can you give to helpers? This question is from Step 4 of the Carrot Cake of Peace recipe.

LRRH: a, necessities.
Tanya: I think I am fundamentally not Arcacian. I help people I care about, even if they are not the best helper. Hospitalianism doesn't have a concept to reward those who help. Do you want something for helping? Not in particular. I think for Tanya, the more important question to ask is, "Is Arcacianism wrong?" Not that I can think of. I'll take that as a win. XD
Tanya: But I don't think we are promoting Arcacianism in a way that is Arcacian. Arcacia is supposed to be cheerful and exciting. That energy is missing. That's true. 😅
LRRH: How do we be more cheerful and goofy? I like it when you tweet with the egg emoji. 🐣 Should Evelyn try promoting Arcacianism on Twitter? I don't think I am doing it right. I am just making people angry. I don't yet know how to promote it. 😅
Tanya: Let's brainstorm. My idea would be we make a page to help cheer good concepts we see on Twitter. How would that be different from @Arena? That page would list Arcacian Principles and link to tweets aligned with that principle. I think that would be pretty difficult because people don't normally tell their principle when they post their opinion on something. It is just a suggestion.
🛎️
Sasha: I think we just need to post more Arcacia pictures because she is pretty. XD Could we stick to a bakery theme? I didn't suggest otherwise.
LRRH: By the way, on Twitter I came across a website Sharebay for people to post what they want or could offer for free. It seems fitting for the question. 😊
Tanya: So far we have two ideas: Make a page connecting concepts from others; and Draw more Arcacia with Bakery theme.
Evelyn: It is not an idea exactly an idea of promoting Arcacianism, but may be we can promote content of kindness and people helping each other? I think the page I mentioned would do so. I meant directly at Twitter, even if we don't mention Arcacianism. Such as retweeting content that is kind. That is Mankyoka. That is an Arcacia move. Retweeting things that are good. If you only retweet things you believe is good, wouldn't that give people less chance to see things they like but you reject? I don't think Arcacia is about that kind of neutrality. Arcacia is known as a gatekeeper. She is a filter. As Dough Master she selects ingredients. Then what is Unconditional Love in Arcacianism? I think it is like Arcacia says sorry then turns a cookie back into a dough. So Arcacianism is not about unconditional love. I think Pacifism is more about unconditional love. But both Helen and Arcacia and happy and kind. They both don't get angry. Does unconditional love just mean not getting angry. I think it means more. They are not angry not just because they are apathetic, but they see something good in others, like a better self that others are capable of becoming. (?) Then Arcacianism has a concept of unconditional love, of the better selves that lie within. Evelyn receives I want to volunteer for a "Let's make LRRH cuter" project. Let's all be our cuter self. 🤗

I would nominate @Arena for S Rank for August if the duplicated section is cleared. @StarTree Done!

@Arena has been nominated for Rank S for August.
Fina: Next, could we clear the duplicated champions section? Take it easy, Fina. XD StarTree will make dummy champion nodes! It's done! See? It is not hard at all. What's next, Fina?
Fina: Next, the Arena node should load expanded like the other new posts. Done! Much better. Wee~~!
Sasha: We are still very far from being able to do combat.
Evelyn: I wonder if that is really necessary.
Black: I think we must list the tests.
Tanya: We can only run a test on a philosophy that has a definition.
LRRH: Could you define the Mirror Test?
Black: The Mirror Test means creating a copy of a champion promoting the same philosophy and see what happens if the original champion would agree with what the other champion does. If the original champion can't tolerate what happens, then the philosophy fails the mirror test. Failing the mirror test means that the champion would not have liked the philosophy if someone else were to practice it against them. Other than the Mirror Test, are there other coherence tests? If a champion makes a claim, you could run that claim against their definition to check of contradictions. That is not a mirror test, but it is a coherence test. I see.
Zoey: I think the way the categories are set up now, a mirror test would fall under "Challenges". StarTree, could you make a Challenges node similar to Comparisons? Done! Could you make the Mirror Test node so I could correct it? Added! 202208312302|Mirror Test Fina looks forward to more progress next month.

📒 Definition

Capitalism refers to a belief that allowing people allocate resources through voluntary trading of what they own is the best and only moral system.
When I say "capitalism," I mean a full, pure, uncontrolled, unregulated laissez-faire capitalism -- with a separation of state and economics, in the same way and for the same reasons as the separation of state and church. A pure system of capitalism has never yet existed.

Types of Capitalism

Free Enterprise vs State Capitalism {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/OfficialSPGB/status/1415674101205594127","desc":"[link]"}
⭐ Capitalism Stances

⭐ Anti-violence against possession & free trade People should be allowed to own what they have and trade voluntary without actual or threats of physical violence from a private of state entity.
⭐ Neutrality to Boycotts Using boycotts to influence trade decision of other owners is allowed. If someone won't sell you something, you are allowed to retaliate by not selling to them either.
⭐ Neutrality to Discrimination Discrimination against sellers and buys does not violate capitalism. If you don't want to trade with someone then don't.
⭐ Neutrality to CompetitionEach owner may use their properties and market powers to eliminate competitors and/or pursue total market control (i.e. monopoly).
⭐ Neutrality to CooperationVoluntary trades that aim for win-win do not violate capitalism.
⭐ Neutrality to CharityVoluntary acts of charity do not violate capitalism.
⭐ Neutrality to Animal Farming Humans don't need consent from animals to own them. Animals are a type of resource. Predation and commercial breeding and use of non-human animals do not violate capitalism.
⭐ Neutrality to SlaveryA person is allowed to sell themself and such contracts are binding as long as it is voluntary at the time the contract was agreed upon.
⭐ Owner owns worker's labor The owner of a means of production owns the product of its workers' labor. This means that if I hire someone to make a necklace, I own the necklace that they made.

Be kind Compassionism is being kind without advocating it or using it as a means to a goal. Compassionism is a personal approach of being kind. It doesn't have an end goal. If you ask a person practicing compassionism why they are kind, they may not be able to tell you why, because to them, kindness is not a means to any goal. It is just the way they behave. It is more about "I want to be kind" rather than "I am trying to spread kindness to convince others to be kind by being kind myself, because if everyone is kind then the world will be a better place." Compassionism might be the same as aloha, which includes the meanings of kindness, unity, agreeable, humility, and patience. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloha Another way to describe aloha is with love, grace, and gratitude. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-age-of-overindulgence/202406/how-to-raise-gritty-children This section is about principles related to compassion, such as what it is and how to tell if a choice is based on compassion. Compassion includes being ready to forgive. Imagine someone is supposed to return a book to you today but they forgot. How does that make you feel? A way to tell if you are acting from compassion, is to ask yourself, if you were supposed to bring a book you need but you forgot, how quickly would you forgive yourself? A person forgives themself when they don't become angry at themself, move on to making sure that they bring it next time. When you treat others with compassion, you would forgive others at least as quickly, if not quicker than you would forgive yourself. Compassion includes being ready to help others grow. To some people, a person practicing compassionism might appear soft or unjust because they don't have anger even toward malicious people, and they don't heed requests to punish wrongdoers. When a kid sees that a compassionate teacher doesn't punish a bully (but use other means to correct their behavior), the kid might think that the teacher is unfair because other teachers would be angrily scorning and punishing the bully. But the compassionate teacher is being fair because if the kid was the one who wronged others, the teacher also would not have punished them. Compassion includes being ready to help others grow or cheer them on as they grow, but does not demand others to grow. A teacher practicing a compassionism teaching style doesn't assign homeworks or give due dates unless the student wants a pacing guide. There is no pressure or demand to do anything. The students grow at their own paces. It is a "pull" system instead of a "push" system. The teacher shows you where interesting things are, then the student decides for themself which interesting thing they want to learn. https://montessoriacademy.com.au/montessori-education/principles-of-montessori-education/ Yes. 🤗 I think letting people grow at their own paces helps keep the compassionate person stress-free because they don't have an agenda to change anyone. せんせいがだいすき。💟 +1 Teaching for free also helps the stress-free-ness. It is fun when it is free. 🤗 Compassion includes stopping conflicts, but the way it is done is without anger. That can happen because the compassion practitioner can stop conflicts without causing pain or using pain, fear, or other negative emotions as deterrent. Compassion is a type of emotional motivation to do something kind for someone else. A person who is compassionate is not necessarily empathetic. A person who decides to be kind, or a program that is programmed to be kind can both be considered being compassionate.

Compassion is...


✔️ Be kind
✔️ Also valuing the wellbeing of others

Compassion is not...


❌ Malicious
❌ Apathetic to suffering of others
Compassionism is an approach to life by prioritizing being kind to others and to self without prescribing how the world should be or what compassion would lead.

Compassionism is...


✔️ "I want to be kind to others."

Compassionism is not...


❌ "People should be kind to each other."

Compassionism Stances

⭐ Pro-kindness Be kind to yourself and others if you can.
⭐ Neutral to Agenda Having a goal is optional.
⭐ Neutral to Reasoning Having a reason to be kind is optional.
⭐ Neutral to Reciprocation Reciprocation is optional.
Compassion is judged at the motivation. A person who acts in malice does not result in an act of compassion even if the result ends up being helpful to others.

202207251000|◀ 2022 SEP 03 SAT 9:19 AM
Philosophy Arena

For Philosophical Arena, we need a definition on what Neutral means. There are different kinds of anti, pro, and neutral. And a philosophy can have different treatment toward self and others. Can we find unambiguous terms for each situation?

Tanya: For the context of the discussion, let's use assault, which is unprovoked initation of physical violence.
Tanya: A pacifist pledges not to initiate assault. They refrain from assaulting. A pacifist who chooses to assault is not a pacifist. Refraining is part of the identity of a pacifist.
Tanya: As opposed to identity, a diplomatic stance describes what a pacifist would do when someone is assaulting them, or assaulting a third party.
Tanya: When a pacifist is the target of assault, a pacifist could absorb or avoid the attack, they could sanction, but not counter-attack. So a pacifist is anti-counter attack when they are the target.
Tanya: Now, if Ann is the target of assult, does a pacifist forbid Ann from counter attack? I think Pacifism is similiar to compassionism. They are neutral to helping or forbid Ann from counter attack. Within pacifism there are different sub groups.
Tanya: In that case, rather than saying Pacifism has a neutral stance toward Ann's counter attack. I propose that we should say Pacifism is Ambivalent. If it does not have a set stance, then it has an Ambivalent stance. Then Neutral would specifically mean that as long as you are a Pacifist, you would let Ann decide whether to counter attack, without specifically funding or sanctioning of them if they choose to. I agree.
Ledia: Shouldn't a philosophy's stance toward a member or others all part of a philsophy's identity? Say if a Pacifist is supposed to be neutral toward Ann's counterattack, then if someone supports Ann's counterattack they would lose the quality to be identified as a Pacifist. Could you propose a word for it? Maybe you don't need a word for it? You could say Pacifists are Anti assault. They don't initiate themselves, and they condemn others who do. In all cases they are anti. But there are situations where a philosophy is anti something toward its followers, but not when others are doing it. For example, compassionism pledges not to be cruel, but does not necessarily try to stop others to be cruel. You could say they are pro-rescuring and helping victims, but there are not necessarily anti abusing. I kind of see what you mean.
Zoey: How about "discipline" versus "diplomacy"? With discipline meaning self-discipline. I would prefer "self-discipline" and "diplomatic stance". Okay. @StarTree, please make a node for Anarchism. Wee~~! 202209031006|🏴 Anarchism
V: I'll be the champion of Anarchism. 202209031028|V
Sasha: What is the difference between Anarchism and Libertarianism? There is none. Unless you call possessionism libertarianism. (Ref) I think we need to at libertarianism at some point. We'll get to it. Tanya thanks all for the discussion.

Definition

Anarchism is a political philosophy and movement that is skeptical of all justifications for authority and seeks to abolish the institutions they claim maintain unnecessary coercion and hierarchy.
~ Wikipedia

Anarchist Self-Discipline

⭐ Rejects the use of authority Anarchists do not establish themselves to rule over others using authority.
⭐ Compatible with free associations Anarchists may form and join groups where members are free to leave. This type of organizations do not violate anarchism regardless of size, power, and existence of law and order. But forcing anyone to join a group violates anarchism.

Anarchist Diplomatic Stance

⭐ Unprescribed Anarchism does not prescribe the stance an anarchist shall maintain toward others. It is up to each individual and associate to declare their stance.
⭐ Allows Spontaneous Order Spontaneous order, such two people decide to yield to each other crossing a log bridge from opposite side, does not violate anarchism. Tweet

The Fractal Test examines how a philosophy behave at different scale of population. The test result is informational only, without suggesting that philosophies are better if they are more fractal.

Philosophies that are fractal

Anarchism | Arcacianism | Compassionism | Honorism | Hospitalianism | Moralism | Quest Society | Socialism | Stewardism | Veganism

Philosophies that are not fractal

Capitalism Capitalism is not fractal because while a company, like an individual, can participate as a capitalistic being, within a company the workers do not participate in a capitalistic manner. The Owner of the company owns everything, the workers behave as agents following directions by the owner.
Communism Communism is not fractal because the decision power is appointed to a central decision making being. Local regions are not autonomous and have no authority to make decisions.
Imperialism Imperialism is not fractal because while the supreme ruler enjoys autonomy, the subordinates are agents without autonomy.

Paladinism refers to the philosophical acceptance of empowering people to righteous use of force in peacekeeping and defense of goodness against natural, incidental, and malicious forces.
Helping vs forcing Defining Goodness Gratefulness and Hopefulness Getting help: Know yourself. Break free from bad habits, nudge, reminder, atomic habits, rituals, zone De-escalation scale Responsibility vs altruism
⭐ Principles

⭐ Consent The victim of violence has a right to choose not to be protected.
⭐ Judgement Take personal responsibility in judging each case on which side(s) should be protected.
⭐ Protection A paladin does not use force for revenge or coercion.
⭐ Solidarity A paladin does not hold fellow paladins responsible for realized threats of instigators. This means if a terrorist says, don't try to stop me or I will kill paladins in hostage, fellow paladins are allowed to keep chase even if the terrorist will fulfill the promise.
⭐ Empowerment What can paladins do that normal people can't? Paladins do not have any special privilege that normal people do not have. A quest society balances weapon carrying and self defense using community defense credits, which is a type of paladin quest credits.
⭐ Paladins are not Law Enforcers Who enforces the laws against non-violent code violations? The owner and their approved officers can enforce the laws about the owner's properties. Those enforcers don't necessarily have paladin skills. For example, you could have a law forbidding typos at your own bulletin board. The person removing posts with typos is an enforcer. That enforcer need not have paladin skills.
202211051527|⭐ Transparency
⭐ Organization

⭐ Paladin City A Paladin City is a City built solely for paladins and those in solidarity to their actions so that if the city is attacked, there is no collateral damage to anyone unwilling to be there.
⭐ Alliance City An alliance city is a city not built for paladins, but have come to an agreement that paladins may extend their actions there.
⭐ Alliance Zone An alliance zone happens when a city under attack is ambivalent on whether it welcome paladins. Then a zone is designated so that people who seek paladin protection to evaculate to.
⭐ Security Clearance A paladin city is organized into security zones defining what weapons can be carried and who may carry them. In general a paladin needs proficiency of the weapon and a history of protecting others to enter a security zone with controlled weapons.
⭐ Credits and Funding

⭐ Funding How are paladins funded? Natalie: In a Quest Society, paladins are funded by credits in the same way other activities good for society are funded.
Funding Process
(Same as other class quests)

1) You earn credits by completing quests (including paladin quests)
2) You may keep the credits without using it. Unused credits are colloquially known as honor.
3) You may spend the credits for items and priorities at places that recognize alliance credits.
⭐ Paladin Credits Paladin guilds do not give paladin credits for “enforcing the law”. Paladin credits are awarded to those who protect human rights against violators including law enforcers enforcing laws against human rights. Is it true that having paladins doesn't mean that there is no police? Paladins and “the police” may coexist only if the police is not enforcing laws that would violate human rights.
⭐ Weapon Credits Earned from protecting a community, this credit is used to quantify how much weapon a person may wield within the community that award those credits. The more defense credits a person has, the higher power weapon the community would let them carry without preemptively expelling them based on self-defense.
⭐ Laws

⭐ Liability An attacker is liable to damages caused by their aggression and by reasonable defense against their aggression. (This is more general than, and not exactly the same as, felony murder rule.
⭐ Situations

⭐ Verbal Conflict How do you decide whether to or when to intervene a verbal conflict? Natalie: Although many paladins do have cleric skills in pacifying heated discussions, the paladin skills in that context focus on assessing the physical threat on scene and removing factors that enable violence if the situation escalates.

To decide whether to intervene, a paladin considers the weapons on scene, the distance between the participants and how early they need to act for their skills to be effective. In general, two people arguing without arms reach is too close if one were to strike another.

A palain may start acting by doing the following while the conflict is only verbal.

1) Confirm whether both parties intend to fight. (Paladins don't need to stop consensual fights.)
2) Keep a path clear for the willing party to escape
3) Remove objects that can be used as weapons
4) Call for backup

If a party starts attacking, a paladin may intercept the attack. A paladin should follow this priority depending on their skills and the harm if the attacker is not stopped.

1) Neutralize an attack so that no one is hurt.
2) Extract the victim from harm.
3) Deflect or absorb an attack to minimize damage.
4) Reflect an attack back to the attacker.
5) Immobilizing the attacker.
6) Counter attack the attacker.
⭐ Protest What is the role of paladins during a protest? Protesters have a right to reciprocate against the offender, but not to bystanders. The role of paladins remains to protect innocent people from physical harm. Siding with indepedence: When the reason for a protest is against oppression by a government (e.g. The people do not want to be governed by the reigning regime), paladins side with those seeking independence, protecting them in discussing how to break free from the regime and agains retaliations by the regime. Paladins are allows to free political prisoners, protect governments seeking independence, and topple government seeking to destroy those seeking independence. Since Paladin skills are physical skills, their involvement in those situation should be a last resort. De-escalation within progress: To keep physical confrontation as a last resort, paladins adopts the concept of de-escalation while meaningful progress is made. De-escalation here means that while the victim of oppression is qualified to reciprocate with more force, paladins encourage the situation be resolved with less force as long as the offender is keeping its promises to make changes and make amends. However, paladins would not stop a victim if they choose to reciprocate in full force.

Ask a Paladin

[1]
What are Paladins?
Paladins are people who use their physical defense and combat skills to protect others from harm. In the Peacemaker spectrum, Paladins are considered both the frontline and last resort of peacekeeping.
🎪 At the frontline When a community is or is about to be physically attacked, paladins intercept the attackers to protect the innocent, especially those who have no means to protect themselves. A general philosophy of paladins is to build a reputation of overwhelming response so that a potential attacker would give up their attempt.
🏰 As a last resort Intercepting an attack does not imply harming the attacker. However, if the defending paladins have no other means to protect the innocent from imminent harm, it is within Paladin Moral code to counter attack, including harming the attacker in order to stop them.
[2]
Are they the police?
While the role of the Police varies in different places, here are what makes Paladins different from the typical role of the Police.
🥥 Not Law Enforcers Paladins use their physical protection and combat skills to stop fights. Paladin code of conduct differentiates between using force to deter physical attacks, and using force to enforce compliance. A Paladin would lose honor if they use their force for the later.
🧥 No Extra Authorities Paladins have the same authority as any normal citizen. Paladin code assert that everyone has a right defend themselves. A Paladin is just a normal citizen with training and focus on using such skills to protect others.
⚖️ Independent Operators While they typically train with and work with those in their preferred guilds, Paladins are consider independent operators. A person can be a paladin without joining any guild and may protect people anywhere unopposed by other paladins if their same rules of engagement. No one needs a license to do what a paladin does. The skill set, the ethic code and the credits are available to everyone.
[3]
What is the difference between Paladins and Vigilantes?
While there are many different kinds of vigilantes, paladins are considered different from vigilantes in the following ways.
⚔️ Protection, not revenge Paladins are about protecting people against physical threats, not exacting revenge. As long as the threat exists, a paladin may act within reason regardless whether the source of the threat had wronged anyone, or whether it acted with malice.
🏛️ Paladins are often part of the law The term 'vigilante' often denote people who act without legal authorization. While paladins may act without authorization, paladins are often recognized by the law and has accepted public dispatch system for a community to call for paladin assistance.
🧳 Paladins Travel While vigilantes are often intertwined with local clans and politics, paladin helping a location are often independent with no-ties to the locals. Paladins are not paid by the people seeking help, they travel to areas of distress away from their training grounds to earn honor directly from their headquarters.
[4]
What is the difference between Paladins and the Military?
Although Paladins and a Military both use forces and are at first glance “militarized”, here are some fundamental differences:
🌐 Purpose Paladins exist to protect human rights against physical threats. This protection is borderless. This is different from a military that serves only the interest of a country or a leader.
📯 Command Structure Paladins can operate as independent individuals. One could visualize them as armed good samaritans, following and protected by good samaritan laws as applied to medical assistance. They can operate without following any order. They are also responsible for their actions and judgment of quests.
Voluntary Participation Paladins are never drafted into action. There is no law against “desertion” since each paladin is free to leave a group that they joined. There are many paladins who simply operate independently by themselves without joining any group.
[5]
Our world is mostly peaceful, isn't it boring to be a paladin?
Paladins get credits in two main ways: Training and Incident.
Training Credits A paladin gets credit for keeping their body in good physical shape and for maintaining their equipment, skill, and teamwork in combat simulations and wargames. There are many tournaments and competitions that would award paladin training credits.
Incident Credits When an incident happens and paladin skills are needed, paladins flock to seize those opportunities to get the higher honor incident credits. The more rare the incidents, the more overwhelming the response would be.
☎️ On-call Other than training and deploying to an actual incident, paladins can also get credits for being on-call and for patrolling areas that need routine protection. But unlike a job role society, paladins are not required to fill those roles. They choose to do so and are compensated based on supply and demand at those locations and time slots. Many paladin who do sign up for those roles are locals and they feel strong commitment and belonging to the towns they love and protect. Since on-call compensation is set automatically based on supply and demand, the paladins self-balance to fill the vacancies.
🏅 As a sub class Beyond paladin quests, paladins can also learn skill in other disciplines and do other quests. We encourage people from any discipline to get some paladin skills so that they are empowered to protect their own cities.

Full Title

📒 Into The Open Economy | Twitter

Highlights

The Limitations of Governance

⭐ Page 13: A government exists mainly to protect trade. What about protection, mediation of conflicts, and custody of public properties?
⭐ Page 13: Printing money doesn't solve anything. Printing money to spend on a specific issues directs people's effort on those issues.
⭐ Page 13: When the economy is good, the government spends, when the economy is bad, the government cuts back. Government spending is not home economics. A government spends when there is a need.
⭐ Page 14: Conception of nations You would need something like nations if you let people have different laws.
⭐ Page 15: Laws are blunt instruments Laws are part of the education on what is acceptable and what is not. May be Colin meant he is okay with principles but not "Laws".

The Limitations of Trade

⭐ Page 16: Free market leads to concentration of power This is generally true. The problem is not trade exists, but there is no limit of what can be traded.
⭐ Page 18: Money is created from nothing and we are in debt For commerce, as more people produce more things, there is supposed to be more money created based on the amount of value in the market. What people call a debt is not an actual debt to anyone that needs to be repaid in a correct money system.

Disconnection

⭐ Page 20: Trading helps get people disconnected to each other Shouldn't it be the opposite? If you love something made in another country, then you would care about the well-being of that country. 🐣

Solution One

⭐ Page 23: A reset only restart the problem because the system did not change. Agreed

Solution Two

⭐ Page 24: An Open Economy without trade or governance. Need more details to understand what this means.

What is an Open Economy?

⭐ Page 28: An Open Economy is... Colin's definition is a redefinition disaster. According to the message, what he calls an open economy is a decentralized totalitarian economy based on every actor agreeing with each other what to do.
⭐ Page 30: We would over fish if we don't have a common interest to keep the fish from going extinct This message seems really old and governments are already doing this. This can happen while trade and governace are happening. This is not something that only an Open Economy could do.

Our Priorities

⭐ Page 31: Set our priorities closer to Self, Community, World, then everything else This concept is similar or the same as Stewardism.

Shifting our Priorities

⭐ Page 34: Use media and make it fashionable Agreed.
⭐ Page 35: Make sharing the norm I have reservation. Sharing is not always good. It depends on what is being shared and who the object is shared to. Typically when things are freely shared, the receiver perceives it to have less value than it actually has. That can lead to waste.

Removing our Artificial Limits

⭐ Page 36: Borders create animosity This is somewhat an overgeneralization. There are borders created for good reasons, and borders created for bad reasons.

Living in an Open Economy

⭐ Page 38: Abundance make money obsolete This only happens if there is zero variance in life and opportunity can repeat.

Social Gravity

⭐ Page 39: We are a social species This presentation is ignoring social conflicts.

Self-Determination

⭐ Page 41: Most of anarchists are peaceful Possibly, if they exist in nature where they are not overcrowded.
⭐ Page 42: Self-determining societies don't need laws Disagree. This is assuming no variance in communities. A community needs to state its laws so people know what they are joining.
⭐ Page 43: Abundance to survival needs would bring peace Disagree. People would who are fed can still dislike each other.

Natural Boundaries

⭐ Page 44: You can still own a home in Open Economy This is one of those issues where laws would help define how much natural boundary a person may have.

Open Education

⭐ Page 45: The best way to approach education: Self, Community, World.Three levels of insight: Awareness, Respect, Understanding. Quest Society uses quests as part of the education system to teach how the world works and what the world needs. It is an open education system because a person chooses what they want to learn for their amusement or to empower them to do quests.
⭐ Page 46: Periodical aptitude tests Quest Society does not have periodical aptitude test. A person may take aptitude tests to explore their strength, but it not required. A person does not need to do quests they are best at.
⭐ Page 46: The primary purpose of learning should be to create adults who can reach the summit of their unique potential Quest Society does not have such goal. It is up to the individual why they want to learn.
⭐ Page 47: The relevant, practical lessons on life, respect and social skills must take precedence in order to create better, happier people. Quest Society does not have such agenda. Training is free and self-paced. Guidance is free but optional.

Community Service

⭐ Page 49: Every member of the community would be asked to contribute a reasonable minimum number of hours per month to dedicate to their community and the greater good. Quest Society intentionally does not have such duty. But Guilds and other free associations may have that as membership requirement.
⭐ Page 50: Tasks could be turned into sports events. Quest Society is based on this, and gets rid of the month requirement to make it entirely optional.

Resource Allocation

⭐ Page 51: Maintaining inventories and tend to requests based on urgency and benefit to community. Quest Society organizes this using quests. The focus is on whether helper of that quest shall be awarded credits.
⭐ Page 52: Skill Roster for someone in need to contact someone with the skill. Quest Society would maintain a skill roster for a different purpose: to encourage learning of a skill when the community has a shortage of people with such skills.
⭐ Page 52: Community Store Quest Society gives credits to the providers. The credits give them priority to take. "Open Economy" is missing the mechanism to deal with people who just take and waste resources without contributing.

Organic Leadership

⭐ Page 53: Some kind of leadership structure is an efficient way of accomplishing complext tasks. Quest Society uses choice democracy and break down "complex tasks" into quests and subquests so teams with leaders of their choice can cooperate without "electing" an overall leader.

Project Pledge Scheme

⭐ Page 54: For large projects, willing workers publicly pledge to see the project through until completion. Quest Society breaks down large projects into sub quests and award credits. Quest Society intentionally does not require pledges to uphold autonomy. A quest doer may quit any time they want. They simply do not get credits for what they did not complete.

A Community Awards System

⭐ Page 56: A Community Awards System would be a symbolic payment method Quest Society credits is not only symbolic. It is the mechanism to resolve scarcity in a way that that does not allow populism to overshadow actual contributors.

Arcacian Sky is up. The music turns out to sound like that other song from youtube I used the same chord progression. 😅 It is supposed to sound like an idol song but it is not exciting enough...

202208062355|Sora Arcacia
Black: It sounds like a credit song of an 80's video game. 😅 It sounds complete though. Good job. Gotta listen to more anime song to make anime song XD
Tanya: I want an Arcacia song that is more epic. We already have Fort Arsenal, which is epic. I think that music is more adventure than epic. I'm think along this line: [LTd-mdr-sls-fmd-LTdLdmr-sSL-] It is a battle cry music XD Is it? It is very paladin. It is a nice melody, we should finish it. 😊 @StarTree, could you make a node?

Sasha: I think Arcacian Sky is good enough for YouTube. But now we need some visual image to go with it. By the way, blogger is showing up on Google Search. Arcacianism now has 5 hits.

Does your philosophy let people help each other spontaneously?

Yes

Arcacianism allows people helping each other and promotes rewarding those who do.

Anarchism allows people to help each other spontaneously because no one has an authority to stop each other from doing so. This answer is misleading because spontaneous murder does not violate anarchism as long as the murderer is not trying to subjugate the victims. Genocide does not violate anarchism. @StarTree make a node asking the opposite question. That is misinterpretation of anarchism. Anarchism means order without a ruler. You cannot dictate what order means. If a group says humans are the same as pests and shall be wiped out, anarchism by itself has no principle to say that is not okay. I think that distinction is important enough to be on the same node instead of another node. Completely disagree. "Does genocide violate your philosophy?" is by itself a very important question. Vivi is correct. There is now a affiliation link to that question!

No

Imperialism Vivi: Everyone must follow the order of the supreme ruler and act according to the ruler's agenda. An individual is now allowed to act from their selfish goals without authority granted by the ruler.

Does your philosophy allow genocide of an otherwise innocent species that does not want to be wiped out?

Yes

Anarchism by itself allows genocide as long as the intent is not to subjugate. But the victim group and any subgroup within Anarchism are also allowed to protect the innocent.
Capitalism allows the owner of a species to do what they want with it.
Imperialism allows the supreme ruler to decide what species may live.

No

Arcacianism requires letting people (or beings) help each other). Genocide as described would violate the principle of letting that species live peacefully.

202208232329|Problem Solving

202209051410|⛳ Begin with the end {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202209051410","music":""}

Begin with the end in mind
Identifying and solving the right problem saves wasted investment on an ineffective solution. What is the desired result? What caused the problem? What form should the solution take? Here are some considerations:
Solving ignorance with guides 📝
If the problem is a lack of information, the solution form might be a report with facts (a fact sheet), a procedural guide, a look-up table, or other forms of convenient information that helps a person know more without forcing them to memorize what they need to know. The guides could be visual or audio as long as it is effective. A picture is worth a thousand words. An effective diagram could help people understand and internalize knowledge even when memorization is not the aim.
Accounting for details with checklists
Checklists are a way to make sure that every small details and requirements are accounted for without relying on people memorizing the details. For disambiguation, a checklist is not a todo list. A todo list shows tasks to be completed, while a checklist show the conditions that should be met for a task to be considered completed. By explicitly listing the requirements, the person doing the task can confirm the relevance of their efforts. If a checklist cannot be created because the requirements are unclear, then it is probably a good idea to confirm the requirements first to avoid wasted efforts. Therefore, creating a checklist is a good practice to ensure requirements are clear.

Tips for Todo Lists

🚩 Include the reason Including the reason of a task could help orient yourself to tackle a task that you habitually skip.{"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/want-to-be-more-productive-science-says-your-to-do-list-could-be-missing-one-crucial-element.html","desc":"[link]"}
Dispelling assumptions with validation 🤝
Validation is a step to confirm that the requirements listed on a checklist are correct. This step is especially important when the person doing the task is not the same person who will face the result.
Guiding creative improvements with rubrics 🏆
Sometimes a problem calls for an innovative solution, so overly restrictive requirements or checklists would prevent creativity. In those cases, a rubrics can guide improvement by ranking better solution types even if they seem unattainable at the moment. By listing them early, the problem solvers can keep an eye for opportunity to do what was considered unattainment. It is not luck. It is preparation. Black receives

Guide

Problem Solver Mindset

If there is a solution, what is it?
202209051416|PIN 202209051416
Being a highly cerebral process, problem solving benefits greatly by having a right mix of attitudes of being constructive, factual, and open to new ideas including criticisms.
Constructive Mindset 🧱
A constructive mindset seeks to pave a path toward the solution instead of trying to convince one's self or others that a problem cannot be solved. When there is no progress toward a solution, a constructive mindset asks "Why is this problem difficult? Why knowledge or tool am I missing to solve it? Where can I get help to solve it?" By asking and overcoming these difficulties, the problem solver lays the next tile toward the solution. To a constructive mindset, every brick wall is not an impasse but building materials for new paths. Black
Factual and not overly optimistic 📊
Being factual means trying to dispel uncertainties by experimenting, verifying, and acting earlier, instead of being unrealistically optimistic that every pieces of the puzzle will fall in place. When there is a gap between the theoretical and actual results, an overly optimistic person would assert that the better result will prevail, while a factual problem solver would be careful and question why there is a gap. Was there an error in the prediction? Was the data gathered in the correct condition?
Welcoming new ideas and criticisms 🚀
A problem solver is limited by their knowledge and available tools. Therefore, while a problem solver may feel proud of having found a solution, they shall not convince themselves that that is the best solution. By having an attitude to seek a better solution, a problem solver becomes more open to criticism, while they expand their knowledge and upgrade their tools. The best solution should be one where the problem cannot occur. That could be the result of a change in process or technology. A proactive problem solver should aim to be part of that change, not the resistance, even if the change would make their expertise in solving the old problem obsolete.

Make the environment work for you
Removing burden on the mind can help free it for creative thoughts and problem solving. Although everyone may think differently, here are some suggestions on maintaining an environment conducive to problem solving.
Maintaining Focus 🎯

Someone people do well working with multiple monitor screens. However, look at multiple screens could also be distracting. An alternative is to dock windows in different sections on the same monitor screen. For Windows, the free app PowerToy includes FancyZone for customizing dockable regions.

⭐ Huberman Lab on Focus 👨‍🏫
Make room for creativity 🧹

You could free your mind by writing down ideas instead of trying to memorizing information.
More deciding, less doing 🤖

Use automations and shortcut keys to free the mind from "doing" to more "deciding".
Ergonomics 🖐

Keyboard Height

Black: Computer chair height is normally adjustable. I adjust the height so my elbows can rest on the desk.
Casey: Use a detachable keyboard tray to lower the height of the keyboard if the desk surface is too high. Note: This would increase the distance between you and the screen. If your monitor is already far from you it might become too far.

Monitor Height

Adjust monitor height to at or blow eye level to reduce eye strain..

202209051637|Post with Love
2022 SEP 05 MON 4:37 PM
Everkindergarden

I want to post a guide on how to post and reply in a loving manner. It can be applied to twitter. @LRRH XD It is for everyone, not just for LRRH. If we can share ideas. 😅 🏳️

Evelyn: The format of this thread is that if you have a suggestion, please share it and we will organize it at a node. 202209051650|💗 Act with Love
Evelyn: I think in general, reply to a thread only if it is supportive to someone already there, and limit the reply to one tweet. Are you referring to different rules regarding posting and replying? Yes, because I think if you reply to an thread where people are supporting an opposing view, it is a little aggressive. But by that you meant if someone had already replied with an objection, correctly, but is being attacked, then you could reply? Yes. 😅 What about quote retweet when I want to talk about something? I think in general we shouldn't quote someone else as a bad example. 😅 But if I don't quote it, people won't believe that people have such views. I think it is okay if you focus on the concept and not the tweeter.
Tanya: I somewhat disagree with this guideline. I think that as long as you have a way to deliver a message that could lead people toward better concepts, you should post it even it is in the middle of "hostility". Wouldn't that violate Hospitalianism? I though you are supposed to let people have their own paradize. If twitter let me see it, then it is not in a private domain. Replying is fair game. Good concepts need explosure to spread. But I follow people with opposing views also. It is not just Twitter deciding to share their messages randomly. It is still in the "public" airway I think it might be better not to, because that would probably just make many people "like" the opposition. And you won't have time to read and respond to their messages. A good reply wouldn't need further replies. For example, Albatross can anticipate enough questions that it would answer questions people would ask. That is possible. Therefore it should be okay if we just concentrate on upgrading Albatross. People who reply with non-sense will see that everything is answered, and stop replying if they don't want their reply to show up as an example. Tanya has a completely opposite view. XD But I agree that it should be about the content, not the person.
LRRH: My Twitter account has 20+ notifications at the moment. Should we go through that? @StarTree, anything else scheduled for today? Nothing! Are we even going to continue Mice & Mystics? How about we just check one notification then re-decide?
Evelyn: I want to add a guide to the node: "Visit social media when you feel you can be loving." If you visit as a peacemaker, your goal is to resolve existing conflicts and make the world a bit more loving a peaceful. In other words, your goal is not to create conflicts by challenging people for duel. XD 🏳️
LRRH: Okay. First one: People were complaining that the Libertarian Party supports eliminating all amendments, including women suffrage. So I replied that Libertarianism freedom of association is against a federal government requiring every state to allow women suffrage. A state or any group should decide that and let or help women who oppose to migrate to another state. The someone replied that there is no difference in a state or federal government wanting to oppress people. Tweet. I can't actually tell whether the Tweeter is agreeing with me or not.
Zoey: Just from the message it seems she agrees with you. Then I just give a Like and it is done. How about also a follow? Okay. I think we need a node for Libertarianism. @StarTree. Wee~~! 202209051843|Libertarianism
Tanya: I think the conflict about women suffrage was about the order of event. It appears that the law can change Faster than people can migrate, therefore, if libertarians want to revert women suffrage at the state of federal level, they would first need a way for people to choose by migration. That option is normally impractical because even if people are willing, they are still being coerced to move. So the most non-aggressive order of event is to incorporate new cities that are free from the federal government.
This concept means that for mutual love, sometimes it is not about having one give and the other receive, but letting the others give also. Contrast with these others: While this might seem fair, demanding others to give or give back changes the relation between built from love into something else. If you force others to receive what you give, the relation is also something else. If you give but don't let others give back to you, the relationship is also something else... Arcacia can't explain! The Horror! 😱🏳️ I think if you give but don't let others give back, you are building a wall and others wonder why you won't let them give. But don't we do that all the time? If you give but compensated, then you don't get guild credit. But we help and give each other all the time and we both get credits for each giving. I don't think we were giving each other but both giving to the guild/humanity. Isn't refusing payment the same as "not let give"? If you are trying to do something out of love and someone tries to pay you back, it kind of cancels the love. If you could let others do something out of love back. Then it doesn't cancels but builds on it. And the point is not to keep track of how much you gave compared to how much they gave. But that both are giving and letting the other give and both appreciate the way they give. And if you give but the other does not give, the relationship might not progress but that is fine. It shouldn't make you angry or feel cheated because you are not demanding a return when you give.
💟 Guidelines

💟 Peacemakers resolve conflicts. A peacemaker engages a topic with the intent to resolve conflicts and make the world a bit more loving a peaceful. Therefore, consider whether the message would create or reduce conflict.
💟 Visit social media when your love is recharged. If you are low on mana, have faith that someone else can help also.
💟 Five-to-one ratio of Positivity Gottman. You need to cast the spell for five rounds before you can nuke.
🏆 Mini Challenges

⭐ Mutual happiness Strive to write posts in a way that everyone can agree. Aim to be mild instead of making one side happy at the expense of another.
⭐ Positivity When disagreeing instead of stating rejection, state an alternative that would be agreeable.

Libertarian Values

⭐ Freedom of Association
⭐ Non-aggression principle Non-aggression principle prohibits initiation of physical violence toward another human being.
⭐ Neutrality on helping Libertarianism does not believe that a person has any responsibility to help another person.
⭐ Ambivalent on non-physical aggressions Non-aggression principle is often declared exclusively for physical violence. Other forms of coercion such as boycotts and verbal abuses are not considered aggressions.
⭐ Ambivalent on Human Centrism Non-aggression principle is often declared exclusively for human being, not including animals, so to allow commercial use of animals.

Transition (Starting from Least conflict)

⭐ Sectoral Liberation Support choices (e.g. School Choice, Police Choice, etc...) in every public sector, toward changing tax to voluntary service subscription fees.
⭐ Creating New Free Cities Creating new cities avoid the issue of passing or removing laws in a city that still has residence of opposing views.
⭐ Repealing non-libertarian laws Removing or opposing non-libertarian laws might create a vaccuum where a person ends up having less liberty. For example repealing voting rights without repealing taxation creates a vaccuum where people are still taxed, but now with no representation.

It is now confirmed that we get a hit per song at Musescore. Arcacianism now has 6 Google hits. Congratulations!

Sasha: While 3B is drawing something so we can post the song at YouTube, let's also think about the next step.
Zoey: I think the first part could be a cute ring tone. Why not the whole song? Then you won't answer the call XD Where can we upload a free ring tone for people to download? There is either a limit on the size or the length XD It seems it has to be within 30 seconds. @Evelyn
Evelyn: I cut it down to 15 seconds. 😊 Cute 🎂 This is the link to the ringtone site Zedge. But our notes don't show up, so it is kind of useless for us. I hope someone likes the ringtone. Sasha thanks all for helping to promote Arcacianism.

????? LRRH: I'm looking for people who can answer questions about Marxism.
🌾 What is Marxism?

Marxism Is...


✔️ Neutral to capitalism
✔️ Neutral to socialism
✔️ An observer of social systems
✔️ A way to analyze social changes
✔️ "Materialism drives social changes"

Marxism is not...


❌ Anti-capitalism
❌ Pro-socialism
❌ A contesting social system
❌ A way to compare societies
❌ "Ideologies drive social changes"
🍒 Marxism Notes

🍒 Communism doesn't have a lifespan like capitalism. LRRH: Tweet
🍒 Neutral to capitalism LRRH: It seems that Marxism observes that Captitalism would destroy itself. Tweet: Neutral | Tweet: Observative Stance
🍒 Not trying to predict LRRH: Evolution Biology Analogy 👍
🍒 Not comparing what system is better LRRH: Marxism makes a statement of historical progress instead of commenting what is better. 📽️
🍒 Comparing utopian systems accomplishes nothing LRRH: "Marxism shows us this." 💬
💭 Marxism's guess of the ultimate form of society

⭐ Anti class ownership of social/dominant means of production Reference defining the meaning of social means of production versus individual means of production Tweet
⭐ Organized production according to a definite plan Referenec: See the fourth picture Tweet. What is the definite and scientific plan?
⭐ Conflict Resolution by ...?
💬 Comments

🍒 What is Marxism? LRRH: 202210142058: Apparently Marxism would not qualify as a contestant, but a spectator, at Philosophy Arena. So, for this node I am just going to collect what people say Marxism is until someone else can figure out its qualification.

An airplane almost crashed because a passenger had not fastened his suitcase securely enough. What happened? Amelia has the puzzle book at the moment. ⭐

Amelia: The suitcase fell and hit the pilot. Why would it hit the pilot though? Is Mikela going to guess? She never guesses. Mikela: If it is a really small plane with open cockpit, maybe the suitcase hit the tail of the airplane. Reminds me of Indiana Jones XD I can't really think of any wildly different answer. Black: How about the suitcase had something that could create smoke, and the airplane was filled with smoke? 202209072115|Bag Panic

In our website code, "Macros" are use for rarer situations with its parameters encoded in a JSON string with a command code.
    The Issue: The website uses JQuery code to load content from archive files on the server. If images are encoded in the archive with ordinary HTML img tags, the browser will load the images into memory when JQuery scans the archive. Macro Solution: In the archive, encode images using macro, and render the images by Javascript when the node is displayed. Since the browser itself does not understand macros, the macro prevents the images from being loaded automatically. Snapshot: Today there are 102 places in the archives where images are not guarded. The webpage starts at about 47 MB. Then if you go to sitemap and list all nodes (1710), the memory usage jumps to about 330 MB. And on Chrome, you can inspect the source of the page and see all the images that it loaded into memory (e.g. LEGO story images 202203191203|📜, and Nextdoor Slides 202307231022|📜). Image guard should prepare them from loading.

Arcacia upgrades this node to prepare for guarding all images. Adding a section on image guard. Binning the old sections. Evelyn joins the quest. (Adds the width property to the img macro.) Assisting code change for the Quest Board image frame. Changed all for quest boards, then used RegEx. Making the macro recognize a class property. Manually modifying some code. New behavior: When the class or style is specified, it does not use the default style. I knew it is never just RegEx. XD I manually change the remaining ones. There are only 7 left. Please check this 202208122238|node. Evelyn casts group heal on the last five. (RegEx with style property). (I know it is unnecessary but I want practice. 😖) Fixing Slide 26 because it was made wrong. Also Slide 23. Should the images include the hyperlink so that when you click on it it opens the image on a new tab? I think that could be convenient. Is there a situation when you would not want the link? If you touch the image on a phone, it will open a new tab. But since the translated code is img, the user can already open it to a new tab by press and hold. I think it should not be the default. Or at all. The click to open feature is applied to some slides. Should they be removed? They can be removed. Please remove them. Consider it done. XD (Removed 16 manually.) I think the changes are done. Let's see the effect. After guarding the images, the website loads starting at 32 MB, then when all nodes are listed on sitemap, the memory jumps to ... to 396 MB?! 😱 What?! XD I don't understand how to check it. The memory seems to increase by itself even when I don't do anything. I see 224 MB after querying all nodes. At least the images are clear from the source tab. If you open the Inspect window, the memory increases. So you need to test it without opening Inspect. If I don't open Inspect and does a load all, the memory remains at 37 MB. But with the Inspect window open, the memory goes to 300 MB. That is not what I see. I do them side by side. When I check at the same time, the one without Inspect goes to 261 MB while the other one goes to 311 MB. It is still using hundreds of MB somehow. I think you need four comparisons side by side: 1) Just the website itself. 2) Just the website plus Inspect. 3) The website with load all, without Inspect. 4) With load all and with Inspect. Okay, redoing with 4 conditions. In incognito mode. Will check again after an hour. Don't we primarily want a comparison between with and without image guard? I am running a comparison without Inspect to compare the memory from yesterday versus now. My results seems stable: 1) 69 MB, 2) 71 MB, 3) 206 MB, 4) 274 MB. My results are 239 MB Yesterday, 253 MB today. It didn't help! XD I have another area I want to investigate. Arcacia returns for Round 2! This time with 586 + 409 + 59 = 1054 changes to make! The card macro needs to be a tag macro. What should be the tag? "Card" is already in use as a tag.

I have an idea but don't know where it goes. I think that different philosophies are more compatible with different types of people. For example, Capitalism isn't really compatible with a person who is just kind. For them, a quest society is more compatible.

Ivy: I think there are enough personality types that it would have its own section: Compatibility. There was a manga page that said capitalism is good for criminals... How should we organize it? Let's list by society. In each society, we list the personality types that would prefer that society. @StarTree I made the node but I asked Mikela to fill it up because StarTree can't! 202209082318|Compatibility
Zoey: OMG XD I think we need to run this through @Evelyn. XD I'm happy that Mikela can participate. I hope it is okay. 😅 I think it is funny. It is the way it should be. I wonder if there are any good personality type that is more compatible with Capitalism? There shouldn't be because Quest Society was designed to beat capitalism as a better choice. Let's post it and wait. Little Red Ridng Hood thanks all for promoting Quest Society.

We made a drawing to post Sora Arcacia on Youtube. You can find the link here: Youtube. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://www.youtube.com/embed/PNw1-n_5rzo","desc":"📺"}

Sasha: Good job! Search Visibility Quest: Promote at YouTube is complete.
StarTree: By the way, the ringtone has 7 downloads! 😊
Sasha: Now what should be next? Is having just a static picture good enough? You could always make more and better ones. The purpose of the video is to draw people's attention to the Arcacianism node. Then should we have an account in everything and post it? Yes, but we also don't want to have too little content at the node.
LRRH: How about we create an Arcacian Quest node? It is the quest of looking at situations and identify what is Arcacian and what is not. I think that is a good direction. Arcacian Quest now has a node! 202209111200|Is this Arcacian?
Ledia: How do we select or group topics related to Arcacian Quest? I read an ad yesterday about a proposition to tax sport gambling to fund affordable housing. Should that be its own node? I think if someone is specifically asking about that proposition, then it would help for it to be its own node. We can also have a node for each general topic: Gambling, Taxation, and Providing Housing. Each would be an Arena comparison topic. Is anyone discussing this proposition? Not that I know of. It is just an advertisement. I think we should start with issues that people do discuss. Preferrably from Twitter. I can find it on Twitter. It is just not a popular topic.
Evelyn: I think between gambling, taxation, and housing, housing is the most relevant. We could start with how Arcacianism provides housing. Arcacianism would reward the helpers that provides housing to people who need but don't have housing. What if someone bets and loses their house? Do they get another one? In Stewardism that wouldn't matter. People with no house can still take from those with the most excess. What about crimes caused by gambling addiction, who is responsible? The gambling house or the gambler? In Hospitalianism, a zone can define itself to be gambling-free. The zone that shelters a gambler who becomes an intruder to another zone is responsible. That zone can decide how they deal with that intruder. I think in general people would not like that idea because it implies people are constantly moving whenever the law changes. If someone gambles but does not rob other people, why should he be responsible for the crime by someone irresponsible? It is up to the gambling zone to define who exactly is responsible. In Hospitalianism, there is a free zone where a person might not belong to any government. What happens if they commit a crime? The hospitalian zone would have a right to claim resource from the free zone. The free zone would shrink. Are you talking about the criminal is caught and is in a prison in a hospitalian zone? I am talking about if the criminal is dead. For what crime? Invasion. When the criminal is caught, the criminal could plead for alternative resolution, such as agreeing to live in an anti-addiction hospitalian zone. But the bottom lineis that a zone does not need to assume a person will change. They are at the mercy of someone who would bail them. But in either case, the Hospitalian zone would get the resource. then why won't they always try to execute the criminal? Because if the criminal pleads to do good, the hospitalian zone would get their good deeds, and the resource if they end up living there until they die.
LRRH: I think we should start with housing. I was discussing how housing works in Stewardism, and I need visual aid. Housing node created! 202209111548|Housing I think I need something more visual. What kind of visual? Maybe a map of how a city look presented by the champion? Which one should I draw first? The maps of cities under different philosophies should not look too different, because a city is still organized by convenience and function. The difference in ownership, which is not normally visible from a map unless you mark it. Then am I drawing one city map and color them differently based on who owns what? I don't think you can tell the difference without drawing different cities. Although different philosophies can work on the same city, a city would be built differently depending on the philosophy. We should be careful not being unfair if different philosophies could result in the same map.
3B: Then I'll draw a typical small town and have each champion color them differently? That doesn't sound very exciting though. I think each champion should present the town they are proud of. How about a cook off? We would each make our model town. Cute!!!

Right-to-work Law

{"cmd":"url","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-work_law","desc":"[link]"} Right-to-work laws here means a law that prohibits an employer from hiring only union works. In Arcacian laws, an private sector employer may set its conditions, including whether the worker is in a union. A person seeking a job cannot demand to be hired when they do not meet the employer's requirements. The context makes more sense as it exists in a Gaia world where no one needs to work for anyone else, such that employments are as optional as joining a sports club.

This is a help node for looking up solutions to housing and homelessness issues. Please help making this complete. This node aims to document housing solutions that meet these end goals: Housing solutions should include identifying causes, especially malicious causes, of shortages and guide humanity to fix the root causes. An end goal of housing should be the overall happiness of the people without sacrifice. This end goal includes topics such as handling a situation with respect, peserving dignity, and being kind but assertive in setting boundaries. This end goal should also imply enabling choices in how to live, up to the limit where it weighs one's happiness more important than someone else's. Housing solutions should be open for everyone to study and refine. Keeping solutions open in general helps people self-organize and reduce duplicated efforts. In case it is not obvious, the content of this website is not copyrighted. Please feel free to cite or repackage it in ways digestible to your favorite audience. Sustainability might not be an end goal of the top priority, but all else being equal, a sustainable solution is better than those that aren't. This solution guide should help a viewer investigate and identify an ethical solution appropriate for the situation. This guide should not be anchored to the law of any particular city, and help the viewer judge when the laws are wrong. These principles help guide how to reach the end goals. This principle means having a system view of the situation, identify who are accountable, and hold those people accountable to fix their damages. By understanding this principle, you could be vigilent when a violator tries to convince non-violators to subsidize the violator's damage. Imagine a society with three classes of people: A) Those who are using more than their fair share; B) Those who are living within the fair share; and C) Those who don't have access to their fair share. How should society help people in group C? When the principle of accountability cycle is applied, the answer is those in group A should forfeit their unfair shares to those in group C. When the law supports that principle, the law would direct shares from A to go to C. When that happens, the accountability cycle is said to be complete. Note that in this scenario, the law would not require B to do anything. People in group B cannot be compelled (by the law) to help those in group C. An unjust situation to watch for, is when people in Group A try to convince Group B and Group C that the issues Group C faces is anyone else's fault other than the people in Group A. The convincing can be done in many ways, such as people in Group A simply don't join the discussion, or suggest that "it is a community problem and everyone should chip in to help." The efforts by people who want to help should be coordinated so that they don't duplicate each other. If you did something, you should let others know so that everyone knows when escalation is appropriate. Coordination prevents different helpers from giving the same violator a second chance multiple times, and more importantly: It prevents the same helper from unfairly escalating the situation just because the helper had ran out of patience giving second chances to DIFFERENT violators. When that happens a well-meaning person who made an innocent mistake could be punished badly because the overseer was fed up coaching OTHER violators. Then the overseer needs better training. Be a good ranger, not a grumpy ranger. XD This is a principle that sometimes help should be rendered before the system resolves the responsibilties. The law has to allow the helpers to account for the fair costs, and bill the responsible person after the fact. (Instead of forcing the helper to floor the bill because they didn't know who shall pay when they rendered help.) A helper who helped the wrong person should have some immunity when the mistake is reasonable. The community should refine the protocol to prevent future mistakes. This is about helping people with compatible lifestyles get compatible housing arrangement. As opposed to accommodating only one lifestyle, or forcing people of incompatible lifestyles to tolerate each other as neighbors. Here are some common conflicts that can be resolved by proper zoning: How freely can animals live in the zone? Is the zone only for people who can live with animals? Let people form zones that conform to different neighborhood appearances. Let people of different mannerism form their own neighborhoods. There shouldn't be a law targeting a lifestyle acceptable in the local neighborhood. Let people define quiet versus music infused neighborhoods. This concept is about designing cities in a way that allows a popular zone expand. The law and city design need to accommdate fair relocation as the core expands, or to allocate a larger continuous plot for a growing zone to relocate. This section lists solutions and how to tell if that solution is appropriate for a situation. The solutions below are ordered in increasing force/risk/cost. In general less intrusive solution should be tried before escalating. Informational solutions are those where a trouble person simply does not know where available helpful resources are. If they have the information, they could correct any inconvience they caused the neighbors. Outreach means a neighborhood takes initiative to ask new visitors if they need help and direct them to available help. A proper/coordinated outreach solution knows which visitors are already contacted so a visitor who is born with a confused-looking face doesn't get approached every block. XD We need a training node on how to do outreach without turning it into harrassment. Signage can tell a visitor or a person in needs where to get help, or explain what behaviors are inappropriate in a given zone. Logistics Solutions are for issues where helpful resources exist but not at where they are needed. This is about keeping inventory of available housing and where people need housing. This solution is about helping people move to a zone where they could livee with people with compatible lifestyles. This service is not about rounding people up against their will. This is for people who want to move but can't afford to do so by themselves. The person who moves is not necessarily someone who needs housing, but those who don't mind yielding to the less mobile. This is about defining or redefining zones so people with compatible lifestyles can group and reduce conflicts that arise when people with incompatible lifestyles are forced to live nearby. This is about building more housing. This solution is appropriate when the issue is a shortage of housing due to for example wear and tear or natural population growth or changes that are still sustainable if more houses are built. We need better explanations on when "building more houses" is not a solution. Enforcement Solutions are about protecting keepers in a zone from unjust burdens of accommodating incompatible visitors occupying and violating the zone's laws. This type of solution is appropriate when solution of less forces have already been tried on the subject, or when there is no evidence that the violator can undo their violations. Enforcers need to keep a record of the situations and previous communications to justisfy their use of force. This is mandatory relocation that can be used when the enforcer knows a compatible zone for the subject, but the subject doesn't have enough intellect or agency to decide. This solution includes relocating people with mental issues to a facility where they can be treated when there is no local caregiver to accompany them in-place. In this countermeasure, the subject is evicted from the zone back to the common zone, which might not have what the subject needs to survice. This solution is appropriate if the subject was an opportunistic or being too lazy to move even though they have the means to do so. However, eviction leaves a record that the subject was uncooperative, which could justify a longer probation period or a ban when they try to join another zone. Since eviction records exist, the subject would take to initiative to relocate before being evicted. They would have asked for help moving if they couldn't move by themselves. This solution type is for intrusive violators who can't be let loose at large. This type of solution is appropriate when the violator, even when they are evicted back to the common zone, would try to intrude the option zone. The violator could choose which prison they want to go as long as those choices wouldn't jeopardize the confinement necessary to protect the other zones. This solution is for situations where the cost to confine a violator is prohibitive, or when there is no prison strong enough to confine the violator. This is a solution against active malicous violators. This is not a solution against powerful people who are not violators. (You don't go hunt down a good powerful dragon, you only hunt the evil dragons where peace negotiations have failed.) Even against a violator, it should be illegal to use this resort unless the other solutions have failed, or the threat is imminent. This section uses specific cases to learn what worked, what didn't, and why. This section collect notes about the progress of a specific city. We made this node to log philosophies and solutions about housing. The node itself started in 2022, but we are still adjusting the format. The layout may continue to change and you mays see different sections having the same content. The timestamps associated with a message is not necessarily the time the comment was first made. How does your philosophy handle housing? Does it try to house everyone who needs housing?
    Stewardism prohibits hoarding of living space. As long as the living capacity has not maxed out, a person can claim stewardship of living space. A person can lose their right to stewardship if they harm the land. A land library is an implementation of Stewardism where each person has the same right to check out housing spaces. So unless living space is actually maxed out, everyone should have at least a comfortable amount. Arcacianism lets people help themselves and each other building dwellings, and reward those who help others. Hospitalianism uses on-going competition of hospitality to adjust boundaries. Hospitalian Takeover: When a zone lets people from an overcrowed zone migrate, the zone with hospitality may takeover corresponding resource that should belong to the refugees. Moralism has a priority of supporting housing: 1) Social Justice for Community Workers: A person has a right to live in a community they serve. The word “right” here means that if they can't afford it, the community has a responsibility to house them. 2) Social justice for local autonomy: A local community has a right to refuse incomers who are not their service workers. A government has no right to assign how many incomers a community must accommodate. 3) Social justice for hospitality: A local community has a right to be land-compensated from the source for each incomer it accommodates. A government should enforce such compensation so a community cannot refuse to shrink when it is exporting unhoused people.
    Capitalism let people trade and own as much land as they can afford to. While capitalism is better than imperialism, allowing unrestricted control of land by anyone creates unaffordability for the others. So it does not try to house everyone who needs housing. Imperialism gives proper housing to all suitable to their contributions to the empire. ... The way Vivi said it sound like a yes but can prison labor camps be considered housing...? I didn't say labor camps. And there are many kinds of imperialism. You are supposed to play the worst kind for the sake of comparison. You are not supposed to be able to tell whether an imperial empire is bad based on how it justifies its policies. To tell whether an empire is bad, you need to judge it based on what it does to political dissenters. Imperialism is a system where individual rights are suppressed and people may not opt-out of the empire or self-organize into their own governments.
This section is prompted by this post at NextDoor https://nextdoor.com/p/DPjBYh5D4xpK This thread is worth replying to because the OP is seeking feedback on a topic related to peacemaking. The subject is related to peacemaking because housing (or unaffordable housing) could imply to social injustice. I think we can first list what we want to say then craft the response.
I think it is not clear if the OP wants any feedback or only want words of support or agreeing. It is not clear if the OP just wants responses from those who agree with the proposal. So this is a review summary with most explanations removed unless someone asks about them.
The suggestions in the OP are: 1) banning of corporate ownership of single-family homes; 2) "Single students should be renting apartments, families in houses"; 3) Walkable neighborhood design mixing single-family, condos, townhomes, and small business. 4) Existing homeowners should not own more than two homes. 5) Vacancy tax; 6) Shifting city design from supporting university students to supporting single families. Making new sections to log the responses. Since the OP's suggestions are like linear approximations to one segment of a curve, to justify making policy changes based on the approximations, you need to know in what situations the suggestions would create injustice. The following describes what the curve is. The OP suggested banning corporate ownership of single-family homes. https://nextdoor.com/p/DPjBYh5D4xpK/c/1159582612 The keyword here should not be Corporate Ownership, but per capita ownership and the unit should not be housing but land. A policy that targets "corporate ownership" may prevent self-organized groups from creating designer neighborhoods, which is part of what the OP] wants in point 3. The OP made a passing comment that Single students should be renting apartments, families in houses. The consideration should favor anyone who is willing to live densely together, which gives them a lower footprint. This has nothing to do with whether they are individual students or families. In Stewardism, any group of four people (regardless of their relationships) may claim exclusive use of housing space for four people. Whether they all sleep in the same room and leave the other three rooms "vacant" is up to them. More on point 6. The OP gave a vision of a walkable neighborhood with mixed housing and small business. This concept is covered by social justice/stewardism principles where, once you have calculated the per capita land ownership (which is about 2 acres per person), it should be up to them to bank on production and "designer neighborhoods" of their choice. A designer neighborhood can be created through a process similar to kickstart. The designer(s) creates a comprehensive plan for the neighborhood and asks for backers. Backers back the neighborhood with their limited per capita share of land. The more densely designed the neighborhood, the more share a backer would have left to bank one other land uses. For this to happen, a designed neighborhood is built and exists as a type of corporate/cooperative entity where it needs to acquire land and maintain its size using the backer's shares. The fact that the corporation is backed by individual shares means that even though the buyer of land is a corporate, it did not exceed the per capita limit for the amount of land it claims for exclusive use (for the building of a designer neighborhood). The OP suggested that existing homeowners should not own more than two homes The key concept again is not the number of homes but per capita land ownership. For simplification, suppose that after subtracting production land uses, a person normally only has the space of one "room" left to spend on their dwelling, then a "homeowner" would not normally be able to claim even one multi-room house. That is not a problem when the homeowner lives with someone else and "collects" land shares from its "renters" to sustain the size of the multi-room house. The OP proposed a vacancy tax. Referring to the principles above, vacancy is calculated based on the total land a person has claimed for exclusive use. A person has a right to spend their land on keeping "empty rooms". That cannot be taxed without violating their autonomy. On the other hand, people who have claimed more exclusive use than their share should simply lose the ownership of their excess shares. (There is no one they could have "rightfully" obtained those excess shares from. If the law allowed them, the law was wrong and their ownership cannot be justifiably grandfathered but phrased out.) The OP suggested that the city should shift its design focus from supporting university students to supporting single families. This is covered by per capita shares. A student's amount of shares is the same as a local resident's amount. There is no force that should make the local resident's amount "worth more". The difference is that a local resident is potentially more willing to bank their shares on local land and facilities, whereas a good portion of a student's share might already be banked on the university grounds (governments do not "own land", governments are the same kind of entities as "corporates/cooperatives" where "their land" comes from the individuals banking their per capita share to that "government")

A charity that attracts more homeless people than it can handle shall pay for externalities their attraction costs the neighbors. If a charity cannot resolve externalities caused by its actions, it should operate at the original site of homelessness. If your policies attract more homeless people than the neighborhood is willing to handle, you have the responsibility to resolve the situation for your neighbors.

There was a complain that shelter is too stuffy, and would prefer open air. https://nextdoor.com/p/ct9JN_rg6Zqk/c/1270208050 Identification Section: We need a section on how to tell who is responsible for a situation. Why is homelessness an issue? Cats don't have homes and it is fine. What is different about humans? The issues are 1) When the person actually wants shelter but can't find one. 2) When the person violates zoning laws. How do you tell the difference between compassion and being an enabler of a problem? How do you draw the line of responsibility?https://nextdoor.com/p/cPdGBc2bGyJ_/c/1215876485 Solution playbook https://nextdoor.com/p/Y7BndqnMp8Pq Where should the troubleshooting notes (TSN) for homelessness be? It seems that it could be part of the Housing node. Let's move it if there is a better place. The ultimate location should be a global wiki. It would make sense if there is a Wiki Solution that has a structure for people to contribute. Wouldn't that just be wikiHow? https://www.wikihow.com/Help-the-Homeless I think the medium can't just be a flat article. It needs at least some interactive decision matrices so a viewer can use it to narrow down to an appropriate solution. Instead of trying to work with an existing platform, I think we should protoype what we want here then look for a platform that meets the requirements. Are there that many solutions? When someone needs help there are just two questions: 1) What kind of help? do they need? and 2) Who should be responsible for the cost? Similar to emergency medicine, help is rendered before investigating who should pay. I think as we ask more questions we will find more decisions to make. Each parameter we should consider would expand the decision matrix. But we could start with listing countermeasures on a scale of efforts. I think we should reformat this node to use EPIC order. We start with End Goals listing what this TSN is trying to archieve. Followed by Principles. Somewhere in I or C would be where the matrix/solution list is. I think C should be Case Studies, where we can talk about effects of specific cases. The general solution list should then be I. I don't know what word to use. Do we have to make the node in that order or can we start adding content in any of the four sections? You could add in any order, but if you don't have a good grasp of the previous sections, the content might contradict the End Goals or Principles. How much do you want to post something wrong and have to retract? What topic do you want to talk about? Maybe we can use that topic as a lead to make the foundation sections. The topic I want to discussion is 202209020848|compassion. Is that a principle or an end goal? How does compassion fit in the context of homelessness? I think the word "Compassion" is too vague. It should be an End Goal, but it would take a lot of effort to explain what it isn't. It might be easier to analyze specific aspect that are not ambiguous to anyone. Such has acting without bias. Let's start populating the sections and think of an I title. 202208162144|⚖️ Comparison {"id":"202209111548","parentid":"202207170956","parentname":"Alchemist","icon":"🏡","title":"Housing Solutions","subtitle":"Subtitle","kids":"","img":"","music":"","author":"Evelyn"}

Open Access is a concept of maintaining autonomy by letting people get what they need with their effort without forcing people to cooperate or take care of each other.

Key Concepts

⭐ Entitle to produce, not to others' products In an open access forest where people are allowed to enter and forage, a person who does not forage is not entitled to what the others gather. Similarly, in an open access farm, a person gets a share of the land to plant, but they are not entitled to the fruits that someone else plants.
⭐ Needs over wants For example, if you need a house (because you have none), you may get land and material to build it. But if you already have a house you may not take land to build your second house when someone needs that to build their first.
⭐ Neutrality to helping others Open Access as a concept does not encourage or discourage people to help each other. Helping each other is not required but allowed.
⭐ What about people who can't take care of themselves?
Open Access is not a complete societal philosophy. A philosophy that uses open access would add additional mechanism to address people who can't use such access to take care of themselves.

Quest Society maintains a roster of people who need to be taken care as a quest for voluntary caretakers to earn credits. Example: Ann is old cannot get her own food. Bob signs up to help Ann get food. Bob then goes to the resource area with Ann's permission, so that he may take two shares of resources. Bob gives Ann her share, and Bob gets Quest credits for helping Ann.
⭐ Economy of Scale
Open Access uses endorsement to support economy of scale without sacrificing autonomy. Example: Amy has an idea to automate farming, but she needs at least 100 shares of resource for the system to be more efficient than 100 people farming separately. In a Quest Society, if she could gather 100 endorsements, then she is allowed to conduct that operation on those 100 shares, even if 200 other people are opposed to it. On top of being allowed to conduct his operation, Amy will also get Quest Credit for helping each endorsor. The result is the endorsors get food without farming, and Amy gets experience on creating the automation and credits for farming for others.
⭐ You may get free stuff without working
Open Access creates some situations where people might get free stuff without working. For example, when you are trying to bake a cake at an open access kitchen, if the cake doesn't turn out as perfect as you like, you could trade it for allowance to bake another. Then, the person who traded with you spends their allowance (which they would also spend if they were to bake a cake themself), but got a cake without baking it.

Effects

⭐ Anti Enclosure Enclosure refers to closing access to resources and sites of production so that an owner may charge higher rent through artificial scarcity. Open Access does the opposite by letting people take care of themselves directly.
⭐ Anti Majority Rule Open Access is for individual autonomy. A group of 99 cannot veto the right of one to choose differently for herself.
Let people help themselves without requiring people to help each other. 202207161423|🏛️ Philosophies 202208181056|🎪 Quest Society {"id":"202209122227","parentid":"202207161423","parentname":"Philosophies","icon":"🍎","title":"Open Access","subtitle":"Philosophy","img":"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/09/29/08/33/apple-1702316_960_720.jpg","music":"","author":"Ivy","description":"","card-text":""}

Taxation commonly refers to requiring payment for one behavior to pay for some other operations in a society. When is taxation ethical? This node defines terms related to taxation to help people discuss concepts and policies instead of talking over each other. Whitewashing is an indoctrination tactic that promotes a violation with a neutral or good-sounding term to influence acceptance. An example of whitewashing is to sugercoat extortion via a government protected process. This node aims to teach people how to detect white washing to identify manipulative policy advocates, and to prevent the violations that would result if such policies come into effect. Starting at peace rank 4: Competition, the participants do not use manipulative communication tactics. During a discussion, the participants, especially an advocate of a policy, should use neutral definitions for facts. Starting at peace rank 3: Coexistence, societies let people choose and self-organize in different policies. If there is a proposal for a group service, society arranges itself so that those who don't want to join don't need to join. And those who want the group service can't force those who don't want it to join. This section right now is just a collection of pointers. But they should be categorized. To explain this concept, I will highlight unambiguous terms to pinpoint the meaning of "taxation" in the context of funding services. A purchase happens when a person buys a service they want at a price they find agreeable. Theft happens when a violator takes a victim's property without the victim's consent, when the victim is not aware of the happening to stop it. Robbery happens when a violator uses a manifested or a threat of imminent violence to take a victim's property without the victim's consent. Extortion happens when a violator uses a threat of future violence to take a victim's property, or to force the victim to act against their free will. A group decision happens when a group makes a decision in some way, including consensus or majority rule, where the result is binding to the entire group. When a group makes a decision in an attempt to skip a member's objection, and the member has no meaningful means to opt-out of the group decision, the member's autonomy is violated and the fasttracking members are committing theft on the member's autonomy. When a group makes a decision using majority rule, and a dissenting member has no meaningful means to exit the group, the member's autonomy is violated and the majority ruling members are committing extortion on the member's autonomy. Group purchase happens when a group of willing individuals pool their resources together to make a purchase, usually to take advantage of efficiency in scale (e.g. a discount when buying bulk). A forced group purchase happens when a violator forces a victim to participate in a group purchase against the victim's will. If the forcing is done without the victim's knowledge (e.g. the violator forged the victim's consent) then it is theft. If the force is done with the victim's knoweledge of a future injury (e.g. we are going to sign you up for the group purchase, if you don't pay, we will take your house), then it is extortion. Taxation, when used without consensus to pay for a common service as a form of group purchase policy, is extortion. In that situation, calling extortion taxation is white-washing. "Taxation" with consent is just a purchase. That is not different from a person deciding to pay for a yearly or monthly subscription. Each individual decides for themself what to subscribe. Plans with more subscribers could benefit from economy of scale. There is no need to force those who don't want to participate to pay. The topic of representation is irrelevant in this judgment because even if you may represent yourself, if the system does not result in allowing you to freely opt-in or opt-out, your autonomy is injured. The only "salvation" of taxation happens when you subscribe to majority rule. If the system allows you to opt-in and out of that arena, and you chose to opt-in and "gamble" during the term, then taxation does not violate your autonomy. If a society collects tax and decides how to spend it by a committee, let the people know what the tax pays so that they can make changes. This tax form shows a breakdown of how the tax collection is used. https://x.com/tradingMaxiSL/status/1834736926638669965 Enabling choices mean instead of collecting everyone's money then decide what to do with it, define the choices and then let people freely choose the one they want. This is a solution when there is a way to account for such choices, such as letting people choose which insurance policy they want instead of forcing everyone to use the same. Relocation is a solution to some forms of taxation by helping people move to zones with a contribution level they find agreeable. The opposite of helping people move to a compatible zone is to use the cost of relocation to force people to comply with policy changes they don't want. That is extortion. Rewarding good deeds is a solution to the question, "Everyone uses the roads, who pays for their maintenance?" This solution means that the society keeps track of who helps maintain the roads FOR FREE. The peacemaker archetype Alchemist is a type of engineers who knows how to get things done FOR FREE by taking advantages of concepts such as upcycling and hobby pairing. "Who made this path in the woods?" "People who tried to go across by walking on it. No one needed to collect tax for that to happen. The path exists as a byproduct of people moving, and those who love the trail made more loving improvements helping both themselves and others. Appreciation and not undoing their love are enough as their rewards." Love Powa! Since the term covers many situations, this blog defines related words to restrict the meaning of "taxation" to facilitate discussion. (20240919: This is an older section that might need to be reviewed or merged up.) In the following definitions, the amount is not necessarily limited to money.

🥨 MAGIC BAKERY DEFINITIONS

Price is an agreed amount for an exchange of ownership. Example: The price of an apple is $1. You pay $1 and the apple become yours.
Fee is an agreed amount for a service or access. Example: A toll booth charges a fee to cross the bridge. You pay the fee to be allowed to cross the bridge. You don't get anything tangible in return.
Tax is an imposed amount to fund an operation. Example: A city wants to fund social services, and requires everyone to chip in.
Fine is an imposed amount against undesirable behavior. Example: A city sees littering as a crime and imposes a fine on littering. If you are caught littering, you pay a fine. This means people are allowed to violate rights as long as they can pay for it. A fine is normally create to discourage a behavior or to set a level of privilege. It exists in addition to (or sometimes, in the absence of) paying for damages.
Restitution is the amount one pays to a victim to break even. Example: John stole $100 from Mary. To break even, John needs to pay Mary $100 back.
Compensation is the amount one pays to a victim beyond breaking even. Example: John stole $100 from Mary. To break even, John needs to pay Mary $100 back as restitution because that is the amount he stole. As compensation John could be ordered to pay an additional $100 because that was the amount he thought he could steal from others. The victim gets the benefit that the offended intended for themself.
Reimbursement is the amount one is paid to cover their cost of an action. Example: As a good samaritan you used your first aid supplies to help someone. The city replenishes your first aid kit as reimbursement so you may help someone again.
Reward is the amount one is paid for choosing to do a good deed. Example: As a good samaritan you used your first aid supplies to help someone. On top of being reimbursed of the first aid supplies, you get a reward for choosing to help.

Is taxation compatible with "let people help each other and reward those who do" ? Welcome to Arcacian Quest, where we explore the meaning and effects of the Arcacian Principle: "Let people help each other and reward those who do." 202208201022|Arcacianism

Tanya: Could we narrow the meaning of "Tax" to the Magic Bakery definition?
LRRH: Yes, and it is "Tax is an imposed amount to fund an operation." 202209130935|Taxation
🛎️
Sasha: Tax violates the principle because it is not simply letting people help, but FORCING people to help.
Zoey: Does it mean that a carbon tax would violate Arcacian Principle?
Evelyn: I think in Arcacianism, instead of a carbon tax, there would be a reward to those who help clean up the environment.
Casey: Do I lose credits if I pollute?
Fina: In Stewardism, if you pollute you will lose the liberty to do whatever you do causing the pollution.
Casey: Is that Arcacian? Stopping a polluter from polluting.
Tanya: I think Arcacianism would need to consider whether your polluting is helping. If it is, whether there is a better alternative that is less polluting.
Ivy: I think it is implied that everyone is a victim of pollution. A person stopping the pollution is helping everyone. So Arcacian Principle lets that person help the rest by stopping the polluter. I thought the definition of help implies all parties are agreeing. If I am polluting, I am not agreeing to be stopped. The person trying to stop me is not helping me. But you are polluting against other people's will. By reciprocation, since you allow yourself to impose damage to others, others may impose damage to you. Their reaction to you becomes a neutral action to you. You are correct that their stopping you is not "helping" you, but their stopping you would be default action that they can do, just like if they were walking around in circles. ...so...?
Tanya: I think that means reciprocation does not violate Arcacianism. It is allowed, but it does not qualify as helping. Therefore Arcacianism would be neutral toward rewarding reciprocation.
Ledia: Say an arsonist is trying to set a forest on fire. Paladins are dispatched to stop the arsonist. Do we get Paladin credits for doing so? Yes we do. I don't think that result is neutral. I think it is Arcacian.
Sasha: The way I would explain it is that you would get credits because you are helping the Arsonist reconnect with their BETTER SELF who would not have done. Arcacia is an angel, she sees pass the superficial self. Sasha receives
Vivi: If that is the case, what is autonomy? I could always stop someone by saying, "your better self won't do that, I AM helping you." That is all-you-can-use gaslighting.
Ledia: The Paladin code allows a person to act and judge whether the others involved would *eventually* agree that they were helping. So, at the heat of the moment, say someone wants to kill themself, a paladin is allowed to bet on the eventual outcome and save the distressed first. They are allowed to act using a consent in the future. Ledia receives
Evelyn: I just want to say that I like this conversation because Arcacia is here. 😊 Evelyn receives
Sasha: So. In summary, to apply the Arcacian Principle, the situation needs to be judged considering better selves and eventual consents. Is that practical? I think that is how it has been working. You have statistics on what deeds people would eventually be thankful for. It is not unreasonable. I think it is okay if you approach it with humbleness and love. You allow the possibility that you were wrong and did something they would not thank you.
Sasha: So you are saying that to use Arcacian Principle, you need to act with love and be humble, see people's better self, judge based on whether they would eventually thank you for what you do. We went way further than I was expecting. 🍰 If we use that to judge taxation, it boils down to people do not eventually like to be taxed. It is just imposed from start to end. I agree. I think we should pin Sasha's summary to the Arcacianism node. @StarTree. Done! 202208201022|Arcacianism Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the discussion.

mbpuzzle is a flat frame with no border and no shadow. Its lighter color comes from an alpha value. Nesting them would make it even lighter. This frame was originally used by Mikela for displaying puzzles, but it turned out to be very convenient so it is used everywhere!

Robustness

Character Variability

How well does your philosophy survive in a population of varying characters?
🥨
202209150917|PIN 202209150917
Robustness measures how well a system maintains its form when it is subjected to various conditions, including misundertanding, unintended deviation, and malicious actions. A robust system is one that retains its function under wide variety of situations.
🍪 Cookie Jar Example
Imagine cookies are offered at a dining hall for sale with a glass jar to collect money for fund raising. There is no reasonable ambiguity that the cookies are for sale per cookie. They are not free, but there is no supervision. It is up to the honesty of the taker to put money in the jar. Depending on the character of the diners, we would expect the following interactions:
😇 Proactively helpful You read the fund raising information, if it is for a good cause and there is contact info, you contact them to offer direct help.
🙂 Honest and obedient You believe what the note says without second guessing whether it is a scam. If you take a cookie, you leave money in the jar.
🍪 Try before you buy You try the cookie first. If it is good then you pay. If not you don't.
🍪 Just eat You take the cookie and don't pay. If you are caught doing it, you pretend that you didn't see the sign or that you forgot to pay.
💰 Take the money If there is money in the jar, you take it. If they really want to collect money they need to be smarter. They may blame themselves for being naive.

Depending on the composition of the dining hall visitors, both the cookie jar and the money jar might be empty by the end of the day. To measure robustness, we look at how little a population need to cheat for the system to fail. In this case, it only takes one person with "Take the money" mentality to empty the money jar. Next, imagine that instead of being completely unsupervised, the dining hall has a camera looking at the jars. Then one would expect the "Take the money" group will split into subgroups:
💰 Steal the money Pretend to put money into the jar but in fact take money out. But now I can't take ALL the money because it would be too obvious...
🎭 Disguise and take Wear a mask, put on a different hoodie, then take the money.
⚔️ Destroy the camera Destroy the camera then take the money.

The subgroups come from "Take the money". With this split, less money is stolen from the jar because it requires someone willing to and able to deal with the camera to steal all the money. Comparing the two, having a camera is said to be more robust. What about the argument that security measures make a person believe that other people are worse than they are? Robustness is not theoretically dervived, it is an empirical measurement. In the above example, I was really talking about trying different setups and measure what is left in the jars. But it is not easy to set up an experiment with control group containing people with genuine criminal intentions. I think the camera would reduce crime because people who would steal under surveillance would also do so under no surveillance. With a camera, some of them would give up. What about a goal of making people more honest so that fewer people would be in the "Take the Money" group to begin with. If you want to include education, then you include education in both situations: with and without camera. Education with camera would still be more robust than education without camera. That doesn't change the effect of the camera. Unless you want to argue that with education, when an educated person sees the camera, they would become more criminal. Different philosophies have different education focus. When we compare them, we need to account for that difference. We need to list what concepts each philosophy would promote through education and how it does so. Yes, and when we test the overall system, we are still testing them with a variety of moral alignments. So a system that only works if every incomer is already a saint would have a low robustness score. A system that can turn criminal incomers into saints would have a high robustness score. Robustness measures how much malicious intention the system can handle without breaking. If we need to define different personality types for the test, I think it is better if the same person describe all of them so people don't misattribute what we describe as the personality of the speaker. 😅 You may describe more than one. I think people in general can understand the difference between the speaker and the description.

Test

Given two systems, apply the same population and observe whether the system would break and how the population would be transformed by the system.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 Character Archetypes

🎓 Knowledge

Sages This type of people are known to be fair and can explain why they do what they do. They do not take psychic damage when they are intellectually challenged. | Scientist A true scientist is uncompromising in seeking the truth. However their work can be misinterpreted by tabloids and be exploited for political gains. | Passive Problem Solver These people are generally very intelligent but do not actively seek out problems to solve. But when given a problem, they would put their whole heart and mind solving it with outstanding outcome. | Whistle Blower These people enjoy pointing out things that are wrong although they might not be interested in solving them. | Science Worker These people make their living by doing experiments but their focus is on getting paid instead of finding the truth. They are vulnerable to be swayed by political pressure or the sponsor of their research.

⭐ Social Power

Influencer (Aka Career Politician) They make a living through power they hold in granting interest of various actors. They aim to get more power and influence. This description is too much like an occupation than a personality type. I think it is better to describe personality type because different an occupation might not exist in some systems. Changed to "Influencer". | Relator This type of people enjoys being with friends but also have a strong sense of justice. They might not be the smartest and could take pyschic damages in debates, but they want to understand and get better so they could do the right thing and make everyone happy. | Divider These people enjoys driving wedges between people and breaking people's relationships. | Follower This type of people enjoy the comfort of being told what is right and follow orders to do the right thing. They do not like debates and take psychic damage when directly questions about whether what they do is actually right. | Signaler Signalers superficially agree on what is socially deemed good but do not actually put effort in doing good. They have no problem taking advantage from people who assume that they are the ones doing good. | Cheater Cheaters like to get more than what is just or socially accepted. They cheat for the greed and the thrill of not getting caught. | Double-faced They change their apparent personality to get close to whoever they want to take advantage from.

😇 Alignment

Altruist They are people willing to sacrifice self-interest for the common good. They would choose to do good if it hurts them, and they might not tell others it is hurting them. | True Neutral This personality type believe in minding their own business and tend not to get envolved in anything unless their interest is at stake.

What is money?

Concept

⭐ Money represents value and debt

Say villagers get food from a forest and eat them within the day. If they use money to facilitate trade among them, there should be no money left in the end because there is no food item left. But money doesn't go away.
If money should go away, then it means that money is a cookie-cutter contract issued by a villager when they lack the corresponding item for the exchange. Money is an IOU, issuable by each villager. A villager can them use the IOU to get priority when the issuer has the actual item. When the debt is paid, the IOU is destroyed.
💟 Arcacian Accounting

Credits are issued to those who help others, and used in resolving conflicts in stewardship.

Scarcity Mindset


A country is like home economics, to fund social programs, it must collect enough revenue, so that it does not "borrow" from anyone. If there is not enough revenue, social program spendings shall be cut.

Abundance Mindset


A country funds helpers by printing IOUs and settles disputes over public resources by destroying them. Balancing the creation and destruction of IOUs is unnecessary. Excess landowners must bid with IOUs to renew ownership, and the winning bids are destroyed, not given to anyone.

Why do you play music or want to learn? Music playing is a form of expression. It feels good when you can express yourself the way you imagine. I think music playing and listening are healing.

📌 Performance Rubric

To be filled with performance ranking rubric.
      How do you learn perfect pitch?
      Can you tell if you are rushing and playing before the metronome? Can we make a program to train/quiz that? Detaching the sound track from MOV to m4a. Then used online converter to get mp3. https://cloudconvert.com/m4a-to-mp3 Analysis with Audacity! Analysing another recording! This m4a to mp3 conversion site seems to have no daily limit. https://www.freeconvert.com/m4a-to-mp3/download
    How do you learn to identify different instruments? Guess the instrument game.
To make a clear sound, make sure that your fingers are not touching other strings you don't mean to press. If your finger has not developed calluses, you could check how a string should sound by pressing it with the eraser end of a pencil. If your hand is too small to can't press all the strings for a chord, you could press only the ones can but only strike the strings with correct fingering. The sustain pedal is normally played (stepped on) after you have played and is holding the key. Once you have stepped on the pedal, you can then lift your finger off the key. If the pedal is already holding a chord, when you play a new chord (while still holding the pdeal), you can release the pedal to clear the previous chord while your hand is still holding the current chord. Then when you step on the pedal (while still holding a chord with your hand), the pedal will only sustain the new chord. You can sustain the sound by either holding a key down or pressing the pedal.
    How do you play the scale and sound nice? The scale is played with notes grouped in fours and played with the first note of each group slightly louder. This is the skill of using both hands to play accompany so for someone to sing the song. 📌 Train to memorize and be able to play in your head.
    📌 Practice playing without looking at fingers.
    📌 Practice playing without looking at sheet music.
    📌 Practice for correctness so the mind remember what is correct.
    📌 How many times to play correct for the mind to learn? (~25)
    📌 How relax should the elbows be?
    📌 Both hands should be at the same height when playing.
    📌 Natural small circle when playing left hand accompany
    The wet filter sounds like when the strings are submerged. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38VG3oaY4OQ

A town next to a river builds a bridge to cross a river. With it built, it would be the fastest way to cross the river for many people. Does the town have a right to make charge a fee for non-residents who use the bridge? To make the context clear, please refer to the map below. The Blue town builds a bridge at B6.
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20220917-1026%20-%20Map.png?raw=true"}

I think we should post this on Twitter to see if anyone would answer. What should I write with it? The blue town builds a bridge at B6. In your philosophy, are they allowed to charge non-residents of Blue Town a fee for using the bridge? Should we embedd the question to the picture? I don't know. It's up to you XD The size of the picture turns out perfect. Twitter
Tanya: @StarTree please make a comparison node. 202209171651|Wee~~!
Sasha: We know capitalism would say yes.
Fina: Stewardism would also say yes, because the bridge is an artifact. Is that only for the actual builders of the bridge, or can the town inherit the ownership of the bridge? Stewardism allows inheritance, but whatever material being inherited counts toward the benefactors' allowance.
Ivy: Quest Society would also say yes. But if they let others use the bridge for free also they would get credits.
Tanya: Do we have no philosophy that would say no? You are talking about whether the champion would let Blue Town, which is another town, charge people though. Yes.
LRRH: Should I or when should I post a following up to the tweet? I think you can post it. No one seems to be replying.
Tanya: For this question, Blue Town created an new way to cross the river that did not exist before. Next we can talk abou the opposite situation when a town wants to block a path. Should it be on the same node? Yes. I think that would be more helpful for the whole picture.
Fina: That would be a no for Stewardism. You can't block existing access, the fee creates inconvenience for others. Do the other philosophies follow suit, except capitalism? This is a little hard. But I think it is Unjust to block what was public access to charge a fee. So Honorism would say No.
Sasha: What if they built nice roads to go through the purple town? They can charge for the nice roads if they didn't block a path that is free. I suppose that is fair.
Vivi: What if there used to be no traffic through purple until the blue town is built? That doesn't change the fact that Purple is block a path to the forest to its west. Builder beware. Fina thanks all for the discussion.

Philosophy Comparison

Access Fee

Does your philosophy allow people to charge others a fee to go through a region?
202209171651|PIN 202209171651
Refering to the map, Blue Town builds a bridge at B6 so people may cross the river without using a boat. In your philosophy, does Blue Town have a right to make the bridge free for its residents, but charge outsiders a fee?

Yes

Capitalism allows the owner to decide who they let through and how much they charge.
Stewardism allows the maker of an artifact to decide who has access to it.
Quest Society would award credits to builders and maintenance if they let others use the bridge for free.
Honorism allows others to charge a fee, but not charging would be more honorable.

Referring to the same map, Purple wants to forbid outsiders from entering and change them a fee if they want to go through Purple Town. Doing so would block the normal land path from H5. Does your philosophy allow Purple to do so?

Yes

Capitalism allows the owner of a region to charge entrance fee. People who don't like it can go around in other ways.

No

Stewardism does not allow a territory to block paths. That violates autonomy. If Purple insists on charging purple fee for going through, then others are also allowed to charge purple a fee for blocking natural access. Purple needs to leave the path open. City planner beware.

Inheritance

202209181320|PIN 202209181320
In your philosophy, does a person who inherited stolen property have a right to keep it?

Yes

No

Stewardism Stewardism does not recognize inheritance of stolen property.
Cute Is Justice Say Ann stole land from Bob and gave it to Cid. Cid is not guilty of stealing, but upon knowing that the land he got was stolen, if Cid refuses to return the land, then Cid is not guilty of stealing, but of unjust possession of the stolen property. Cid did not inherit the crime of stealing from Ann. Cid makes a criminal of himself when he decides to keep the stolen property.

How did you decide to have paladin as your main class?

I was saved by a paladin and hoped that I could do the same. I followed my dad's footstep. I think being a paladin matches my personality very well and I enjoy learning from and training with my dad since I was small.

Related Concept

Self-Serving Definition
A self-serving definition is a lack of objective definition where the speaker of a term asserts that the term is meaningful but fail to define when the term cannot be applied. Self-serving definition renders a term meaningless and indicates that the speaker's self-serving bias. 202302152005|
💬

Self-serving definition


🚨 Using positive terms when describing one's own action, but negative terms when describing others doing the same.
🚨 Unwilling to define when a positive term is used and when a negative term is used.
🚨 Unwilling to define when a term cannot be used.

Not self-serving definition


⚖️ Defines terms independent to one's own behavior, such that the terms can be used objectively to judge one's own behavior.
⚖️ Defines when a commendatory, neutral, or condemning term is used.
⚖️ Able to define and show examples of what a term means and does not mean.
Example: What is a Compassionate Solution?

Example: With self-serving definition

Claim: Compassion is in all solutions.
🔍: Suppose toilet paper is in shortage. In order to secure your own toilet paper, you solution is to wait for the store to open and get your own toilet paper regardless whether others can get theirs. Is there compassion in that solution?
Claim: Yes there is compassion. It is better than breaking into the store.
🔍: Suppose you can't get up early enough to wait for the store to open, but you are free at night to break in. Is breaking in to get toilet paper a solution of compassion?
The above is an example where compassion has a self-serving definition, which is really a lack of objective definition in order to maintain the original claim "compassion is in all solution" correct. By doing so the claimer renders the term "compassion" meaningless. The following is an example where compassion does not have a self-service definition.

Example: Without self-serving definition

Claim: Some solutions are solutions based on compassion.
🔍: Suppose toilet paper is in shortage. In order to secure your own toilet paper, you solution is to wait for the store to open and get your own toilet paper regardless whether others can get theirs. Is that solution based on compassion?
Claim: No. A solution based on compassion means a person who has decides to share with those who do not. Securing supplies for yourself is not an act of compassion.
🔍: Could you give an example where a solution is based on compassion?
Claim: For example, you have a stockpile of toilet paper, you decide to donate from your stockpile. Or if you have a papermill and decides to make toilet paper instead, to keep the supply of toilet paper available and affordable.
When a definition is not suffering from self-serving bias, it allows people to judge objectively when the term is applicable. 202302152005|

Choice Democracy is a practice of providing equal decision power to let each person directly choose what they want for themself.
Majority Rule Democracy allows an inverted pyramid decision hierarchy among the people, where those with majority opinions are on the wider top, and those with less popular opinions are at the narrower bottom. A person's "share" may not be well-defined in direct democracy when things are "collectively owned". A person with a minority "share" of something might not be able to make any decision about it other than giving up their share. In some cases, a person cannot even give up or opt-out of taking part in the collective arrangement.

Majority Rule Democracy


⚠️ You might not have a share
⚠️ A majority might decide for you
⚠️ Inverted pyramid hierarchy

Choice Democracy


✅ You have a share
✅ You may decide for your share
✅ No hierarchy
Choice Democracy is truely without hierarchy because no one can infringe on a person's right to decide what to do with their own share. 202302152005|💬 20230220 Why do we call choice democracy choice democracy when it is more direct than "direct" democracy? Shouldn't "Direct Democracy" be called "Majority Rule Democracy?" Good point. Changed.
A group of people visit a pizzeria. Half of them wants green sauce the other half does not. In majority rule democracy, they would be in a stalemate. A pizzeria that supports choice democracy would allow them to order a pizza with two favors. Choice Democracy is about seeing situations where majority rule does not need to happen, and allowing each individual choose for themself directly within their share of decision power. Suppose littering and pollution are illegal. A policy within the framework of Choice Democracy, may allow each person to select their waste collection service, including self-employment to collect and haul their own wastes. Unlike Representational Democracy, Choice Democracy does not require an election process. The city does not ask the residents to vote on one waste removal service that everyone would use. Everyone may directly choose the service they want. To decide what to do with public land, each person may get an equal share of decision power that they allocate among usages that they approve. A usage is accepted and can proceed if it receives the endorsement it requests. A city has a population of 100, 100 pieces of shared public land, and a proposal to build a resort that occupies 5 pieces of public land. In Choice Democracy, as long as the project receives 5 endorsements, the project may start, even when the remaining 95 people do not want the resort. The five people who endorses the resort cannot decide on the usage of the remaining 95 pieces of land because they have already used their decision power to endorse the resort. Compare to democracy with majority rule, the 95 people would have voted down the project and the resort would not be build. Choice Democracy gives minority autonomy that majority rule would take away. Using remaining decision power to on food stand. https://nextdoor.com/p/rf2BPgrjsK6r/c/1186178558 Choice Democracy as a concept by itself does not prescribe how to resolve situations when the opportunities are not equal. However, when a person cannot afford to choose (such as when the alterative or ALL choices are too expensive), then Choice Democracy is not in effect. Quest Society enables Choice Democracy by giving credits to the service provider. The person choosing the service pays nothing. The service provider is credited based on the amount of service they provide. The service needer has their credit deducted based on the the amount of service they need, but they may still request service when their credit is negative. Their credit being negative does not affect the amount of credit awarded to the service provider.

An alternative is leader rotation in small group settings. The elected representatives vote on policies on behalf of their regions. Minorities could be unrepresented if their candidates lose in elections. A person may represent themself or select their representative. This is equivalent to each person directly voting on each policy. Each person may choose their own policies or congregate with others who choose the same. {"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/Slide_29.png?raw=true"} A petition workflow structure logs project ideas and sponsorship.

Philosophy

Stewardship

How land custody is handled in Stewardism.
202209212331|PIN 202209212331
Stewardship land custody maximizes access to the world to the limit of what is necessary for surival and basic autonomy.

🥨 Magic Bakery Definitions

Custody is a type of ownership where the owner is allowed to take care of the thing but not hurt or destroy it. In Stewardism, land and space in general fall under the category of custodianship, meaning a person is not allowed to destroy land or habitat.
Possession is a type of ownership where the owner is allowed to hurt or destroy the object. In Stewardism, a person can generally possess artifacts they make. For example, if you don't like the hut you built, you may destroy it.

Prioritized Principles

⭐ A person loses custody to land they harm. Example: If your life style poisons the land, then you lose custody to the land even if you built your house there.
⭐ A person loses custody to land with vital natural resource they don't share. Example: If you chose to build your house at the only water source in the region, you may keep your custody only if you share the water to visitors (up to what you need for yourself).
⭐ A person has custody to their necessary dwelling. Example: In an open forest, you may choose a spot, build a house and live there.
⭐ A person has custody to land they take care. Example: You are allowed to get land to farm even if you don't live on the farm. But if your farm is so big that other people can't live or farm for themselves, then you need to yield.

A Recipe of Peace

Welcome to Cooking with Arcacia! I'm your host, Arcacia. Today we are making a Carrot Cake of Peace! This recipe lets people help each other and reward those who do. By making this cake, you could contribute to a more peaceful world by recognizing, reimbursing, and rewarding those who help others. Let's get started!
Who do you want to help today? 💬
Step 1: Team up with your better self

Have you ever wondered what if you were wiser, such that you were the go-to person when disputes arise? That wiser persona, whatever form it takes, is your Better Self. Finding and making peace with your better self is the first step of this recipe. Don't worry if your imagination is not clear right now. As long you decide that it exists, it will become clearer over time.
How is your better self better? 👑
Is it more collected and cautious? More fun and adventurous? More wise and decisive? More kind and caring? The goal of the better self is to help you become what you really want to be. You can be wiser, more adventurous, plus any other qualities that you can imagine. Imagine a kinder, wiser, more loving persona with any qualities that you want. Make a list, make a sketch. Let your better self take shape from your imagination!
Are you starting to see its form for the first time? 😀
If so, congratulations! You've found your better self!
Ingredient unlocked! 🔑
By letting your better self help you, you unlock the most important thing for this recipe:
💟 The Oven of Endless Love! 💟
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwBLcMUTovK2dvoKzcaJdJWsc9RxJZ718tahNeOGkd8LFchyGkPH9b4PcbSJwvInB1GdVf6bbzRhr5LnkM0_5oo18Ys9mOnUDEj9yi8VmmMBcoH-biQ6FWSuWFGjfKogID4U5Pr2YxNzB0UFzy5h0dlykwEaiK1-eYvxDVlK_EVVrWsOaOS6rcK0Lg_g/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20OVEN%20KRA2.png"}
Step 2: Make helping a choice

That was a good start wasn't it? But this is where most people give up 😱 (!)
The imagination of a better self often comes with the disappointment of not meeting expectations, which results in people blocking their better selves. To keep the love flowing, you'll need to know how to deal with disappointment.
How do you deal with disappointment? 💟
a) I set my goals lower than my expectation.
b) I learn from them to do better next time.
c) I tell myself at least I am not the worst.
d) I move on by doing something else.
e) I improve until I am satisfied.
f) I correct my error and re-do.
g) I don't get disappointed.
h) I improve the situation so I succeed.
i) I make the situation funny and rewarding.
j) (Other)
The fuel that keeps giving 🚀
While there is no single method that works best for everyone, for this recipe I recommend the Cheerful Extra Credits Oil of Easy Champions!
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxUlEubYHGrpIt5Bid-O47HggTll-pb3DrjHoiBcxLXNrGFBJ8ymaiBZPsWg163SRmJN2d3QVWHI9Dam1lSvM88eh6227bqkZXyhnB4cxdENYwD240WdegqV2qiG9jux5KVSPETiHk_cf6M3wwSb-chxJcIStHCdrn0uEcSU45n9nuEEHibgzgK-_xVQ/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20STAR%20OIL.png"}
This oil sets the goal lower than what a person thinks they can achieve, and gives Extra Credits if they achieve more. Often times, this ends up being realistic because people often don't plan for rests and surprises. When you complete a goal that you've intentionally set lower than your expectations, you would keep going anyway because you know you could do more. Then if surprises prevent you from doing more, you would feel wise for having anticipated them. You would tackle them without the stress from not having met your goal. Therefore, this oil keeps your expectations super high and let you be flexible to deal with surprises. It lets you take detours and get bonus experiences that you would otherwise be too stressed to get. So for this cake, I set the goal to:
Helping is a choice, not a duty.
This means that you don't have to help anyone. But if you choose to help, you are getting Extra Credits. By being at peace with yourself and being peaceful with others, you are already part of what keeps the world peaceful. If you choose to do more and help others become peaceful, then you get Extra Credits!
How many extra credits do you want to get today? ⭐
Zoey: There are days when I'd do nothing! XD Tanya: I prefer to save my energy for emergencies.
Casey: One is enough, easy does it.
Evelyn: In our guild singing soulfully is worth 4 points, I want to sing every day. 😊
Step 3: Reward yourself

Have you been helping others or your better self today? If so, congratulations! You've earned Extra Credits! You should reward yourself!
The carrot of our Carrot Cake of Peace is the reward that makes peace flowing! What we are aiming for is not the taste of someone demanding a reward for having helped someone, but the taste of rewarding someone who has helped others. The difference may seem subtle, but it is very important. I recommend this kind of sugar to help you see the difference...
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbBrWBhNwHhYDphPQw1aCYF646UTZZBdXj9QjIJTR0JyWoWMWcOaVtYv83Tw_6j5RYTdzN1vG8HXJzdeabA1m0nhW7TXSJTgf_aX4N4cC-st2DEKKDvJ_o12s2CqZ2TGurNIYDKIZtOap-E6tnnI1BR9-VKN2l0YxAmQ9klRHu55zXrIuLhidqB2pu8A/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20Sugar.png"}
A good baker should know the taste of their recipe, so let's have a taste test!
What does your better self want? 🔔
If your better self has helped you, be nice to it and reward it! What does your better self want? Let's see if any of these ring a bell...
a) Learn something new, or work on a neglected project.
b) Try a new food, go to a new place, or have new fun.
c) Rest, sleep earlier, or do something for your health.
d) Help someone who you have been neglecting.
e) Be free from over stimulations.
f) (Other)
So... how are your self-rewards doing? 💟
a) I regularly reward myself. I am happy. Let's keep going!
b) I've been putting off something I always wanted to do. Let me do that first. I'll be right back.
c) I think I should reward myself, but I don't know what to do.
If you feel you should reward yourself but have no idea how, try this: ⭐

So, look around the things that you have. Are they fun? Do they make you happy? Let yourself make the changes that will make life more joyful for you!
//Let your mind play every day.
Try all that's fun under the sun.
Solve new puzzles, see what tickles.
Shop for new toys, share what sparks joy.
Sing a song or skip along.
Playing makes a wonderful day.//
Arcacia: Now try singing that in the tunes of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!

Step 4: Reward helpers

By rewarding yourself, you know what works for you. To reward others, you need to know what they want instead. To know what they want, you could let them tell you what they want or let them choose from the rewards that you can offer. It is a match-making game!
A match-making game 🤗

What reward do you want for helping? What rewards can you give to helpers?
a) Necessities such as food, clothing and shelter
b) Healthcare or Protection
c) Being Needed, Belonging, Friends, Love, Purpose
d) Entertainment, Guidance, Knowledge, Skill
e) Autonomy, Freedom, Fame, Honor, Justice, Recognition
f) Creative powers to make dreams come true
Prioritizing rewards to helpers 🥇

Rewarding helpers means reimbursing them and rewarding them for choosing to help. As a reward giver, you would need to know who has been helping so that you may prioritize who receives your offering. When a person helps someone without pay, they earn Extra Credits. How much Extra Credits they earn is up to you (the reward giver) to decide. When you give a reward to a helper, you also earn Extra Credits in the eye of others seeing your good deeds. This creates a network of people caring about who to reward. You can be in that network to keep the help flowing. Doing so is not too difficult among people you know. Here are some examples:

Example

Favorite Food 🍱
You cook for your household and each member has a different favorite. You could cook a helper's favorite dish whenever they earn Extra Credits.

Example

Decision Power 👑
Your household disagrees on the vacation destination. Instead of deciding it by majority rule, you let helpers use their Extra Credits to bid for their preferences.

Example

Inheritance 🏡
You are leaving this world. You put in your will to distribute your inheritance according to your heirs' Extra Credits.
Arcacia: In the examples above, rewarding helpers poses almost no cost to you. The reward comes from your deciding to treat helpers better than non-helpers. By making help matters in your decision, you create the main ingredient for this recipe: {"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh68PNGodbInpdC3_biOR_9EzNGqy1bfDR1fbfvhpR6an8DpsNcUbfnew8Mn_8GwwUiX9DNE9l6LB4RBzvlvi78rRxzQWRNO_0rNzuLVZYyXUCHspMXBpJ3PXWYOpOBMDLWXCIYoXjqfCB5VNn5igLtnyUVt93aEMCS-4-VPV1-sBk4fGXbwYR-O_XJSw/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20Carrot.png"}
What if you can't give helpers what they want? 💡

Here are some ideas on how you may still help even if you can't directly give the helpers what they want:
a) Collect wishes from helpers and fulfill them specifically
b) Make donations to or fund scholarships for helpers
c) Choose friends and social circles who are helpers
d) Offer discounts to helpers on what you sell
e) Help people know the helpers in their area
f) Promote policies that reward helpers
g) Offer special rewards to helpers
h) Other
Step 5: Circle of Peace

How far you could go in Step 4 depends on your circle of influence. If you have influence in a household, you could quite readily use that influence to apply carrot policies for your household. The same goes for a company, a city, or a whole country. The more prominent you are, the farther your voice could reach and the more people could become aware of this option. Even if you have little influence, you outreach could still get someone with more influence to create more peace around them. Therefore, for this recipe to work, you could just be persistent without being influential. But being influential certainly helps!
How do you grow your circle of influence? 💐
a) Get into positions that make important decisions
b) Be creative and get interest for your products
c) Be entertaining and popular Be creative and attract attentions to peace making. I want to make songs about peace. I want to make games about peacemaking. Create peacemaking quests to draw attention to peacemaking.
d) Be helpful and help people Sharing peacemaker skills freely to empower people to make peace wherever they are. Sharing peace concepts on the blog and at twitter. Become skillful and prioritze helping those who help. Maintain and inform people on how different philosophies are ranked in terms of peacemaking. StarTree just wants to help people and doesn't care about influence!
e) Become a big employer
f) Be kind and hospitable
Carrot cake vs carrot cake for peace 🥕
Arcacia: Regardless how much influence you have, let's remember that not all carrot cakes are for peace. Carrots can motivate people to do evil also. Carrot Cake of World Domination is also a carrot cake! Arcacia: What makes this a recipe for peace is that it rewards helpers, which implies consent and without creating a conflict. To use this recipe, aim to reward everyone who has Extra Credits. Helpers shouldn't need to compete or bid against each other for a reward unless there is a genuine scarcity in the reward. {"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh75GMmAYdZgnubsVt8acOsII69FKi3muZPkaYNUW9bSklqyMg54cB4s0Z0iZR_pNnF9Jnpu-UDtVkY81s2P5UgqMmNgVE3umQ-nsZpVzEMq2y4sc2HEkAbF3_Rm_scamwAeS3V12dj9vgtwXwQprse1zX50NYtqR1RM-2xT80pJBN8lZE6kZCXK4ObVg/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20Vanilla.png"}
Rewards vs necessities 🍞
Arcacia: Similarly and more importantly, you don't want to turn a living necessity into a reward. If you do so, helping stops being a choice but an obligation. In contrast, if the reward itself naturally has different rarity, you may let those with more Extra Credits pick first, so they may pick the rare rewards if they want to do so.
Example: Guildhall room selection
A guild uses Extra Credits to let members bid on the room they want in the guild house. There is enough rooms for everyone, but those with more Extra Credits may choose first.
Example: Asteroid Strike
An asteroid is going to hit Earth but there is only one spaceship for evacuation. Other than the crew and staff necessary to keep people onboard alive thereafter, the limited seats on the spaceship are prioritized based on how much each person had helped others.
Start being fair sooner Arcacia: By starting carrot policies early, people would know who has been helping others and how they got their Extra Credits before a scarcity happens. Then when it happen, they could deal with it fairly and peacefully. With less fighting, the helpers could focus on solving scarcity. Then when the Asteroid comes there won't be just one spaceship. There might even be a wrap gate or other means. Humanity will have the best chances by helping each other. {"cmd":"img","src":"https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8R-NCFoAq2uWknIhoLfGBqZc5_iueMQw6hxEQVJB6w0AKpPkDdv0ZXzXk677v5vvgpXedofQzha5u8VjjzHfffpg4R_i1SWRrpVhvho7ItU6QejgOoS-5xjRWfTosne1yxBlcasy2zdNH996hv27iWzNtA3YJZJeWa8Ctn8566SjcarO0k2XZMizfYw/s1600/KT_19%20%2820210704%29%20Eggs.png"}
Step 6: Make it yours

By now you have the main ingredients and tools for making the Carrot Cake of Peace. You could use local specialty ingredients to give your cakes more characters.
Let people help each other and reward those who do.
Arcacia: These are all examples of the Carrot Cake of Peace recipe:
Example: People powered affordable housing 🏡
A city has a voucher program that pays any homeowner providing housing for people who could not afford the market price. By doing so the city avoids the more expensive option of building affordable housing. (Local Specialty: Gingerbread Fairy Houses)
Example: Historical storefront 🏰
At a historical tourist attraction, the town prioritize the publicly owned store fronts to the local businesses voted among the top ten hospitable and representative of the town each year. (Local Specialty: Heirloom Frosting of the Ice Castle)
Example: Community powered local businesses 🍎
A town allows people to give a ranking on the social goodness of the local businesses (including non-profit organizations). Those with good enough ranking are eligible to apply for community-funded workers paid my grants and local scholarships.

2022 SEP 23 FRI 10:57 PM
Fort Arsenal

Cardinal requesting heroes clarification for Boss 11 at Crystal Archive Core. What will we use the bind the core together?

Sasha: I asked sages but haven't gotten a reply. If they don't reply, we could use generic binding or keep them separate.
Evelyn: I think it would be much less work to use generic binding. 😅 It would look better if it is binded. We should know how this works a lot earlier. Yes. 😖
Sasha: What about the other core? How is that done? They needed to do that also, according to initial plan. I'll ask them. 😖 I couldn't find the record of what they did. But there should be one. I am still searching. There was not custom scroll. I don't have a lead. I sent the question. 🙏
Ledia: I think this is worth a TPK in Cardinal Quest. Ledia receives XD
Ledia: I think for Cardinal Quest, we need a list of hardest bosses and epic failures. That's is a great idea. Should that be its own node? Let's start as a collapsible section in #P202208250038|Cardinal Quest HQ. I am adding some description. The boss is a phantom caster lurking in the archive. It casts mild spells slowly, but over time the many mild spells link with each other to form a magic trap. I imagine it is some kind of librarian. I think it would make more sense if it is someone mischeivous. Like they take books from the archive and misplace them, make spells to turn the archive into a maze. I like that idea. I imagine someone small, like a pixie. The time has passed midnight. The Heroes are considered KO'ed. Ugh... XD 😅 Cardinal thanks all for the quick response.

202207161423|Philosophies

202209242119|📯 Peace Ranking {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202209242119","music":""}

This is a ranking of paradigms for ranking different philosophies in terms of their peacemaking approach.
⭐ Rank 1: Celebration ⭐

Celebration as a peace ranking refers to ideologies that not only provide a cooperative environment but also celebrate diversity in good and helpful ideas.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ Right to Autonomy This rank carries the rights from Rank 2.

Philosophies

202208201022|Arcacianism Arcacianism is a Celebration Rank paradigm because it rewards peacemakers. | 202207202118|Honorism Honorism recognizes those that help people. | 202209031955|Paladinism Although Paladinism mainly deals with physical conflicts, it is a branch of Quest Society and shares is Celebration Ranking. | 202208181056|Quest Society Quest Society is a quantitative implementation of Arcacianism and shares the same paradigm.
🎀 Rank 2: Cooperation 🎀

Cooperation as a peace ranking includes philosophies that not only allow distinct communities to coexist, but also promote voluntary cooperation.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ Right to Autonomy This rank carries the rights from Rank 3.

Philosophies

202208170830|Hospitalianism Hospitalianism goes beyond coexistence by defining territorial justice for providing hospitality. It is not quite at celebration rank because it has a low key/humble attitude about territory size. Size is not an indicator of being good. Net migration is relative. Hospitalianism by itself doesn't have a goodness metric like honor or credits in Quest Society.
🏝️ Rank 3: Coexistence 🏝️

Coexistence as a peace ranking contains philosophies that justify self-defense and protects victims of existential threats.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ Right to Autonomy In this rank true rights and liberties start to exist. True rights are what people pledge to protect, and true liberties are what people pledge not to retaliate against.

Philosophies

202208162055|Stewardism Stewardism has a rather neutral stance. It is anti-tyranny and anti-pollution, but otherwise leave people and communities alone. | 202207161233|Veganism Veganism is considered Coexistence rank because while it asks people to choose to be nice to all life forms, it doesn't promote cooperation by itself!
🥁 Rank 4: Competition 🥁

Competition as a peace ranking includes philosophies that justify the use of non-violent competition to resolve conflicts, but the loser could lose their autonomy in such competition, and there may be no way to opt-out of such competition.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ Autonomy Philosophies in this rank are the first to observe some forms of autonomy. However, since competition allows at-will non-violent retaliations, there are no actual rights and liberties. You could quit a union, but the union may make you pay for it one way or another.

Philosophies

202209010850|Capitalism Capitalism does not meet the criteria of coexitence because it pretty much leave losers in capitalism die on the street.
🔔 Rank 5: Control 🔔

Control as a peace ranking refers to a stance where people are under threat of violence or non-violent impasse if they do not follow an authorized course of action even when harmless alternatives exist. Examples include subpressing political discussion or secession.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ Right to Vote While philosophies in this rank may not allow secession, it may have a compensational right to vote.

Philosophies

202210022310|Resource Based Economy To optout, a person must prove the legitimacy of their request, and there is no foreseeable legitimate reason. Twitter
Socialism I could not get people who believe in Socialism, Communism, or Marxism to answer a vital question on whether they let people secede and be independent. So I assume that their answer is NO. Without allowing people to be independent, these philosophies do not qualify for Competition rank. They are relying on a rhetoric that there can only be one group for the world to be peaceful. That is a Control rank paradigm. Other signs of Control include inability/intolerant to discuss different ideas, and censorship.
⚔️ Rank 6: Conquest ⚔️

Conquest as a peace ranking contains philosophies that uses direct violence to eliminate threats to peace.

Common Rights and Liberties

⭐ None Philosophies in this rank may not observe any rights or liberties.

Philosophies

Imperialism If you have the power, the most direct way to make peace is to eliminate all the troublemakers, by force. There is no need to negotiate if you are strong enough, and no use of negotiating if you are too weak. Put out fires before they start. That is common sense. Trust your oracle leader who is always right.

Gaia Credit is a numerical representation of a person's share of the world. Please help discuss whether this is a good idea! Let people know how much of the earth they could have if their political system would allow it. With such statistics, people can derive policies to return control to the people! It seems that Gaia Credit would support choice democracy by letting people spend their credit to claim the resource they want. If they used up their credit then they can't claim more. Hoarding is when a person claim more resources than their credits. For any philosophy ranked Coexistence or above, if it has a concept of terrrtory, it must have some way to calculate how much resouce a person can take with them if they opt-out to be independent. Homestead net zero https://nextdoor.com/p/S8f4n5hJr5qG/c/1255674804 This section defines terms and explain what Gaia Credit is designed for. This section should replace the Design Goals section and Library Analogy section. Library view https://x.com/LRRHBakery/status/1856023578631967088 A person who harms a space or violate other people's rights in that space would have their Gaia Credits locked up until they make amend. (( This section lists what a person can do with their Gaia Credits ))
👑 Bid: Use Gaia Credit to bid for a space. The bidding operation allows people to outbid others to gain custody of contested space above the minimum Gaia Credit price. This means it is possible for the world to have unclaimed spaces where no one would have credits left to bid for.
🍎 Subscribe: Lend Gaia Credit to another person to manage. Usually done in exchange of goods or servive. This is how large farms would normally work. The farmer is able to get the area of farm land not by using their personal Gaia Credits, but by using the credits from the subscribers. The subscription contract should specify the allowed use of the subscriber credits.
♻️ Yield: Let go of a space and get your Gaia Credits back. This is what you do when you no longer need the space.
🔒🔓 Lock/unlock This happens when you hurt a space or violates someone's right in a space. Part of your Gaia Credit will be locked until you make amend
Imagine a group of space explorers find another habitable planet, each explorer has a different idea on what to do. One way to let each explorer have their experiment is to divide the planent so each can experiment in their section.
Dear Crew Members...

Captain: "This is your captain StarTree! The preliminary survey of the new planet is back! The new planet has 500 million km2, so each of our crew of 500 gets 1 million km2 of credits. Please mark your preference on the map, contested locations would be resolved by bidding using the credits!"
StarTree: Is this fair?
Imagine the world is a library and each volume of space is a book. Each creature occupies a volume of space and needs resources generated from some space to survive. A creature that is sustainable is like a visitor who borrows a book and returns it in good condition for others to borrow. Then if there are physically enough books for everyone, and no one is checking out too many, everyone can get enough book to enjoy! A person has an account to the library and can see which books they have checked out and if any book is due to be returned. There may or may not be an allowance of how many books they could check out at once. But if someone else wants a book they have a hold would be placed on that book and they are due to return it. The entire collection of books could be kept separately at different libraries, and each library may have their own rules on how many books a person may check out at a time. What happens if a library is not fair, such as awarding special privileges to some but not others? When the goal of keeping books sharable, it would be fair for a library award access based on a borrower's ability to keep the book in good condition. The more delicate a book is, the more careful the borrower would need to be. Difference in access of this type could be considered fair. Unfair differences would be those based on other kinds of favorism. Is there a problem if smart people get to borrow more books? Details like this can be decided by each library. People can be allowed to choose which library they go to. When a library has too few visitors, it cannot justify its control of the collection. In reality, the library would be closed down and its books would be transferred to other libraries. 🌎 Surface Area of Earth: Zoey: 510 million km2 | 197 million mi2 | 🌊 Ocean: 71% | 🏝️ Land: 29%

Gaia distribution is not the same as charity. In a society that uses Gaia distribution, a person can choose to be charitable to others, but the system itself is not an exercise of charity. A person who cannot make what they need from their share could bank their share at someone who would make them. When that happens, the maker is not doing that "for free". The maker gains the harvesting rights until the owner withdraws their share. https://nextdoor.com/p/xmpwGthCS_3L/c/1271152195

Positive Constructive feedback aims to help people build their idea. Active Constructive Response recognizes good behavior and suggests the next good outcome to aim for. A good use of active constructive response motivates people to do good and do better without draining their mana. It should be encouraging and reassuring for the receiver. A well-delivered feedback should lead to the receiver considering and adopting the change. Good feedback would help build bonds between the persons giving and the persons receiving. Giving contructive feedback should not dampen someone's passion to do good. While this node is mainly about the skill of giving feedback, a peacemaker should have high tolerance to badly given feedback. If someone gives you a valid feedback but in a way that violates all the principles, a good peacemaker would still take the valid input into account as if the feedback was done following best practices. Scenario: Someone tweets about a peace concept which you agree 80%. You want to tell them about the 20%.
💣 Destructive

"You never thought about the 20% did you?" Destructive feedback has the apparent effect of using what people do wrong to invalidate what they did right to discourage them from doing the task at all.
☹️ Negative

"I disagree."
"I disagree with 20% of your idea." A negative feedback focus on the part in conflict or disagreement. Negative feedback by itself is usually not useful because the receiver is not getting any feedback on how to improve.
😐 Passive

"What about it?" A passive response is one that is disinterested in the topic. Ignoring or changing the subject are also considered passive responses.
🙂 Positive

"I agree with 80% of your idea." Even if there are parts where you disagree, positive feedback acknowledge the parts that you agree.
😃 Active

"Interesting! Tell me more about it!" An active response is engaged to the topic. To do this, the responder finds a connection between the topic fo something they care about, including the speaker.
🧭 Constructive

"I am interested in solving that 20% and would like to share ideas." Constructive feedback is about sharing ideas on how to improve.
Before giving feedback, you should check if the recipient is ready. A person may not be ready to receive a feedback if they are pre-occupied, in a hurry, or in a bad mood. "A constructive response focuses on creating a solution or making improvements to a given situation. When a person is giving a constructive response they do at least one of the following:
1) Identify the issues in the current situation or other proposed solutions.
2) Provide solutions and ideas for solving the problem.
3) Point out the use of logical errors and logical fallacies in the hope that the participants would continue the discussion without those errors.
4) Explain misunderstanding to a concept.
5) Let participants amend the proposal to improve the solution pool.
Examples of Destructive Responses

A destructive response focuses on discrediting or disqualifying participants. A person giving a destructive response may say things like this:
1) Not acknowledging any issue being identified. "Regardless of what you complain, the status quo is the best there is. I am not going to confirm anything you complain about and I am not going to entertain the possibilities of improvement."
2) Discouraging new ideas. "I worked in this field for decades. You are not saying anything similar to what people I respect in the field would say, so I am not listening."
3) Point out logical fallacies or bad manners as a way to disqualify a speaker who is making a constructive comment. "There, you used one strawman argument. You are disqualified from the discussion." "You seem angry. Therefore I won't listen." "You have just blamed someone, so I won't listen." "You didn't say thank you, so I won't listen."
4) Not letting people explain what they meant. "That's not how I interpreted it when I read it. You were wrong about the way I interpreted it. You should have written it better but you didn't. You lost your chance. Next."
5) Not letting people amend a solution. "That's not what you proposed at first. You are trying to change it after I showed you that you were wrong. Therefore I am not listening anymore."

Transition

Destructive responses are typically a mimicked excuse pattern. The user saw someone used it and normalized it without considering that they are excuses for inaction. Usually, once a person realizes these are excuse patterns, they would stop themselves from making destructive responses. The following is what may go through in the mind of a person with a constructive mindset that stops them from making destructive responses.
1) Acknowledging an issue is the first step of improvement. Whether the current implementation is the best is irrelevant. The question is whether it can be better.
2) I have seen enough times when a person who never worked in the in introduced an idea that solved problems that plagued people for decades. At first, I felt ashamed that I didn't notice that solution even though I had worked on it for many years. Now I feel proud for having an open mind and glad that people from other walks of life are contributing to help each other.
3) The education system doesn't teach logical fallacies enough. It is a challenge to rid the discussion of fallacies and keep the focus on problem-solving.
4) Since my priority is problem-solving, of course I let people explain what they meant. Why would I want to shut out potential solutions just because I misunderstood?
5) If I know that their amended solution is better than the solution I have, what am I doing trying to stop them? There is no other path than to help create a solution that is better than the current one.
Matter | Indeed: Constructive Feedback | Active Constructive Response
A future focus response focuses on what can be done next, whereas a past focus response focuses on what happened or what went wrong. https://www.fastcompany.com/90969141/the-definitive-guide-to-giving-actually-helpful-feedback Say a helper tried to pick up trash but did not sort out the recyclables. "You didn't sort the trash as you collect them." or "Weren't you told to sort them?" "These bags still need to be sorted." or "I'm sorry if we missed you in the briefing, we plan to sort them as we bag them. Please sort them next time." The emphasis is that a good response should show a path for the doer to succeed or make amend. The focus is not that they did something wrong, which they can't change other than to making an excuse. A way to orient the focus is to say, "The failure brought us here. Now let's talk about the solution." Please be vigilant that that saying is also very common when someone blameworthy is trying to distract people from focusing on their accountability. The culprit wants you to focus on fixing their mess. XD If a suspect says that, what should be the response to make it clear that the culprit is not off the hook? I think the wording can be, "We don't know who caused this mess yet, but the more you confess and help to fix it, the less you would be accountable for when we identify the responsible person. The 202409070446|ethomatics is that if someone else cleans up the mess for you, you are accountable for the price tags of the volunteer helpers, so if you don't know how much they are charging, you might want to clean up yourself, or confess to claim the quest so you can subcontract at a cost you can afford. If you don't confess, you are also paying for the cost of investigation. I see.
Confirm that the feedback you want to give is valid. Do you understand the situation? Are you about to tell them something they already know? Are you trying to give feedback to the right person? If you can't confirm, you may want to ask or start your feedback stating that you don't know if your feedback is relevant. Good signs that your point is valid are when you are the requester, the inspector, or you have a relevant rubric. If the recipient is going off a tangent, you are in a good, or sometimes the only, position to give prompt feedback to avoid wasted efforts. This is when you are a victim and you want to tell the offender to stop through active constructive feedback (Instead of just complaining or demanding compensation). When the end goal is disclosed and you see a contradiction in the actions, it is a good sign that you should give feedback even if you are not a stakeholder of the project. If the situation seems foreign or puzzling to you, maybe you are unaware of the issue or the scope being addressed. You want to make sure that you understand the intention and how it fits in the bigger picture before judging the relevance of your feedback. A common error by Oracles is their assumption that the recipient understands the significance of their message and would forward it to appropriate persons to make changes. In societies where a general recipient would not forward the message, the oracle would have to ask for the person in charge and deliver the message to make a difference. Just a word of understanding about oracles: Most of them study many things at once in ways that are unobtrusive. They don't have stakes in societies where they warn people of incoming dooms. So if a society makes it too hard for an oracle to give a warning in passing, oracles won't even bother leaving a hint. You are asking an oracle to jump through hoops just to save you. XD Maybe if a society does that to oracles, it is beyond saving and should go down according to its natural demise. Teamwork please. 😖 My point: Since it is a burden for a seer to babysit the message to make sure that it is delivered to the right person, people should learn that they can be good heralds for passing the seer's message. Neither the seer or a general citizen needs to know where a message should be deliverd, if the town has heralds, they are the go-to persons to distribute information. If the heralds also don't care then it can go down. In that case, sure. XD If the town still has a cleric, the cleric knows that the town needs heralds and oracles, and other archetypes. We will look for you. Please come. I will stay for the cleric. Or take the cleric if the town is beyond saving. 😖 Beyond saving just means you would help a town where your presence makes a good difference and the town can accommodate the refugees from the town that can't be saved. Big picture, Evelyn. Clerics don't need to save "towns". Clerics save people. +1 I learned something and feel loved. 🤗 Check whether this is a good time or place to give feedback. A ticket or petition list shows all the requests and their status. I think this is the best practice in handling feedbacks. A ticket list solves many problems such as duplicated requests, and people wondering where their requests stand among other priorities. A feedback or suggestion box lets the recipient read them when they are ready. A clean but empty or almost empty feedback box is a good sign that your feedback will be read. Having a receptionist or a phone number is a good sign that you may give feedback through them. When people are celebrating the completion of task, they usually don't want to process what else should or could be done better. Unless there is already a session scheduled for feedback, it might not be a good time to do so. How do you know when a team is ready to take feedback? When a team is highly passionate about the project, they are already focusing on the improvements. The celebrator actually needs to plan the celebration in a way to help them rest to prevent burnout. In quest society, you don't need to give feedback to the specific team that had just completed a quest. You just need to refine the requirements when making a new quest. It is up to whichever team wanting a quest to check the quest board. I think it is important to show the difference in quest society when tasks are not assigned. When a team has suffered a setback, they might not want to receive more feedbacks because they are cooping with the losses. Quest Society addresses many of the bad signs by letting people give feedback not to any specific team or quester, but to the quest itself. Then regardless whether any particular team feel about it, a team that is ready will tackle the updated quest. The fact that another team would gladly tackle the higher standard quest make all the teams spend less time lamenting losses and more time redeeming themselves with a better result. If you can't assess whether the recipient is ready to take feedback or that they don't have any obvious means to receive feedback, you could consider posting a report about the situation. The intention of such posting is the same as in Quest Society: I don't know who wants to pick up the trail, but here is the next leg of the treasure map. Bon voyage. This is so Ivy and every quest she left us is so hard. XD That is not "Ivy", that is just science. It is common practice to point out what the next study should be at the conclusion of a research paper. That practice is missing in commercial competition, but the scientific community is supposed to be cooperative. If the overall map is not changing, the report should not shock anyone. Bon voyage! XD You could ask the recipient how they rate what they have done.https://www.fastcompany.com/91188734/a-definitive-3-step-guide-to-giving-negative-feedback-according-to-neuroscience You could affirm the part of their evaluation that you agree. Acknowledgement is a retelling of facts, such as comparing before and after statistics. This is the easier way for an oracle to start a conversation, and to a recipient it might sound like a statement of appreciation of accomplishment. Before giving feedback, you could identify and tell them the most appreciable thing you can see. And you should do this in general so people don't association appreciation only as debuff before criticism. 😖 You can also show appreciation when you do not know the end goals. Assuming that the doers are altruistic can be the default before you know otherwise. This step is hard for oracles because the words of oracles carry more weight and can be misinterpreted. If a seer praises a doer without knowing whether the doer was being altruistic, bystanders would assume that the seer had investigated and is endorsing the activity. That cannot happen. Clerics can do that because most people understand that clerics would say nice things without knowing the truth. Thank you for pointing it out. I will make sure that people don't mistake me as an oracle. 😅 You should show your rubric especially when you criticize. Showing the rubrics helps prevent the recipient from assuming that you are only trying to be critical. For example, if you show them a rubrics and you can point to your feedback being the difference between rank A and rank B, it is up to the recipient to disclose what rank they want to achieve. I think before this step, you should confirm that you are in a position to apply that rubrics, such as if the rubrics is standard, or if you are the requester. Otherwise, you need to ask the recipient who wants to know how their rank on your rubrics. A person may not want to be judged by other rubrics unless they are looking to improve. This step is after assessment, it is important to reiterate that you do this after seeing good signs that feedbacks are welcome. Regardless whether there is a good sign for giving feedback, if you have a rubrics that is not publicly viewable, you should make it so, so that you and the recipient can both refer to it without worrying about taking notes. The timeframe of improvement or correction should be clear if you are in a position to do so (e.g. you are the requester or the victim). Are you requesting an immediate change or are you just suggesting an improvement that the recipient may attempt at their leisure? Giving the timeframe avoid unintended stress when recipicent mistake you for demanding an immediate change, or the opposite. Oracles also give timeframes even when they are not stakeholders. "This bridge will collapse in 7 days." But oracles don't have standing as stakeholders to say it. They are bystander observers. There is an interesting dynamics that the people who are best at saying things are not necessarily the people who are best at knowing what needs to be said. Exactly. We need teamwork and general recognition of helpers with different skills. I think we should aim for this guide to help oracles give feedbacks so they don't need to talk through a cleric or a herald. I want this to be applicable to all classes. I think Sasha covered that in the confirm step. An oracle could start by asking for the right person to address a concern. I will add description in Confirm.

Peace Ranking
[202209251420]

202209251420|Competition vs Control
2022 SEP 25 SUN 2:20 PM
Freedom Plaza

Our current peace ranking ranks competition above control. Is that correct? 202209242119|🏆 Peace Ranking

LRRH: Our current ranking is Celebration > Cooperation > Coexistence > Competition > Control > Conquest.
LRRH: Control includes societies that do not let people opt out.
LRRH: Competition includes societies that would let the losers die on the street.
LRRH: Which one is actually worse?
Fina: Originally Control and Conquest were the same. Control meant setting up rules for people to follow and enforce them by force. It involves stick policies. Not much different from Conquest.
Tanya: It is not necessary to have a strict linear ranking. Competition and Control can be the same rank if we can't find a conclusion. But if you consider control is implemented by force, I would say it is worse than Competition. I think they are too similar. In capitalism when there is no free land, the landlord can set any rules and the tenant can only choose to obey or be violently evicted to... nowhere. It seems the same. 😅
Zoey: Maybe capitalism isn't really competition rank? It is a type of conquest, just not by direct violence, but by passive violence. I think the difference between direct violence and passive violence is note-worthy. Then majority rule democracy is in the same rank. It is a popularity competition by vote instead of money. Then Control is not a rank? I would say if you have Conquest as a rank, then you don't really need Control. They are both bad anyway.
LRRH: Originally, why is competition ranked above control? Because Control includes slavery and conquest. If a philosophy is like a zoo, it treats everyone nicely but no one may leave, then where would it be ranked? I think if they don't require people to compete against each other then it would be at coexistence rank. So there is a difference between "You don't have to do anything, but you can't leave" and "You have to do this, or you will be punished." I think Control is the second one. In the original ranking, coexistence implies that people are allowed to be independent, same as competition rank. How does being allowed to be independent or not affect peace? It seems to be at a tangent. You have to think from the perspective of the person wanting to be independent. They want something, and the system has a barrier preventing that from happening for no legitimate reason. Therefore the system is creating an unprovoked conflict. I'm sorry. You are right. 😖
Zoey: Then should we draw a difference between voluntary and forced competition? People don't choose to be on a rat race. The competition rank wasn't created for capitalism. It just meant non-violent competition is used to settle conflicts. Whether capitalism is competition rank is a separate question. I guess capitalism would fit that definition, but for someone with no capital, they aren't really in the competition. And so there is a rank above: Coexistence. Coexistence doesn't mean competition is not used, but you can't lose everything from competing. Okay. I'm good with that. So, no change? I see no change, but we should update the descriptions. Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the discussion.

I think it is time to change the twitter banner or pinned post to help promote Arcacianism. 202207112218|Search Visibility

Tanya: You could readily do that with a link to Carrot cake of peace. We haven't finished the training yet. 😖 I think it has enough content.
Fina: I think Carrot Cake of peace would come off as a little rich. You would have to be well-to-do to use that recipe. Yes, but why would you ask poor people to make peace? It is not their responsibility. I prefer the current pinned tweet listing the rights. That is the bottom line.
Tanya: I think you can have "more than one" pinned tweet if you alternatively post them. But that would mean you reserve tweeting for threads. I think I want a new card of Arcacia presenting the Arcacian Principle. @StarTree. Could you put together a card? StarTree is employed, wee~~!

LRRH: @3B? Ok. Let me clean it up a bit.
3B: For some reason I can't use Mischieve. The pen is not aligned... I think it is fine as is. I can't upload it, the size is too small. It needs to be 3000 pixels wide. Um... there are smaller images. Like this one. Maybe they changed the policy.
Sasha: Okay, then let's do DeviantArt. Posted. Thank you.
Sasha: I think we should revive the presentation of the six peacemaker archetypes.
3B: What about the cookout? I think the six archetype is more important, and since LRRH has a script for the presentation. I was going to update the node first. It would be good to have some banners. @LRRH. I think there are some tweets you should delete. It messes up the Media section. Okay. 🏳️
Ivy: I think we should move on from the HK issue and concentrate on Arcacianism. We talked about that last time. Then I agree that we should move on. Sasha thanks all for discussion.

It is almost October! Is there any nomination for S Rank?

Fina: Nothing much seems to have changed for @Arena. @Arena changes for 13 days, which is almost double of the nex highest of 7 days!
Ivy: I will make some tweaks by putting Peace paradigms and Philsophies up top. Sasha has learned the Cleric Skill 202209302251|Depolarization.
Evelyn: It is a good skill. 😊 And I like these interjections.
Sasha: I was listening to a podcast and I think Red unintentionally used this skill. I did that just because people who were replying are not official representatives. So when their reply didn't make sense I ask them how much they knew about it. Red is just naturally curious XD We should all be. 😊
Ivy: Sorry for the wait. I did something to 202208162133|Arena. I think it looks much better now! I would nominate @Arena as S rank. @Arena is now nominated for S Rank.
StarTree: Congratulations!
Fina: I think the Challenges, Contests, and Combat sections can be hidden for now. Okay. Gone. Did you finally fix the loading bug at Arena? XD That was StarTree! Wee~~! Zoey gives kudoes to StarTree XD

Depolarize

Ask people how much they know about the subject they believe in, then ask them to elaborate.
202209302251|PIN 202209302251
Depolarization is a skill that lowers the psychic defense so that they are willing to listen, discuss, and understand.

Method

⭐ First, ask people to rate themselves on their knowledge of the subject. When people are polarized, they would overestimate how much they understand something and rate themselves too high.
⭐ Then, ask them to elaborate about that subject. In this step, people who are polarized without the actual knowledge will discover that they are not as knowledgeable as they thought. Their polarization barrier might dispel and they might start learning.

202210012055|Circle of Influence
202208292226|◀ 2022 OCT 01 SAT 8:55 PM
Magic Bakery

How do you grow your circle of influence? This is for Step 5 of the carrot cake recipe.

Tanya: There was a long thread about Hospitalian transition at Twitter In summary, Hospitalianism started as a care facility with an Hospitalian Oath of prioritizing care to volunteers who took care of others. I think this answer is closest to (d: Be helpful and help people), but that doesn't capture the essence of priority. So I would make a new option g: be skillful and prioritize helping those who help others. Thank you. 😊
Ivy: I would pick (d). By that I meant listing and sharing peacemaker skills freely to empower people to make peace wherever they are. Thank you. 😊
LRRH: I think what Ivy said would be the main purpose of the blog, the guild, and the interaction at Twitter.
3B: Could we change the wording of (b)? It says "Be creative and get interest for your products." I want an option that says, "Be creative and attract attentions to peace making." I think that could be a new option. I made (h) and I will add myself there do. But we don't sell anything, so wouldn't (b) be unnecessary? The options are not just for us. 😊 Okay.
Sasha: Isn't h the same as c "Be entertaining and popular"? I can't guarantee that I am entertaining. But that is what you should strive for when you try to be creative. It is supposed to excite and attract people. It is supposed to make the curious and want more. h and c are the same thing. Good point, I will merge to c then. 😅 I'll join c also. Then I will join d with my comment.
Evelyn: I think it looks nicer with fewer choices and add individual message at the bubbles. Absoluately.
Tanya: Should Anti-Indoctrination be a skill node? Yes, why not? We have Depolarize as a node. As opposed to the dungeon with logical fallacy and cognitive bias monsters. I think Anti-Indoctrination would not be a skill, but a Quest. I see. Good call.
Zoey: We could first add Anti-Indoctrination as a Philosophy Concept node. Then other philosophies can adopt that stance by referring to it.
Fina: To me that sounds like a comparison node. You are basically asking, "Does your philosophy have an anti-indoctrination stance?" That's true.
Fina: Which option would be closest to "I grow my circle of influence by ranking philosophies"? I think being informative would be (d). (c) is very close also. I'll choose d then.
Tanya: What I saw was creating a Quest to draw interest is a good way to grow influence.
Zoey: Then I'll take that for (c).
Tanya: If we post a Quest object on spotting indoctrination, it would be part of @Dungeon. But @Dungeon does not look very nice at the moment. But first thing first. @StarTree please make a comparison node for Anti-Indoctrination. Created! 202210012202|Anti-Indoctrination Don't go yet, StarTree. It is now 4 v 4 on choice (c) and (d), be our tie breaker. XD StarTree just wants to help people and doesn't care about influence! It is (d). Thank you, StarTree. 😊 Evelyn thanks all for help making the carrot cake.

Philosophy Comparison

Anti-Indoctrination

Does your philosophy cultivate people for critical thinking?
 
202210012202|PIN 202210012202
Indoctrination is the use of misinformation, restricted access to information, and non-education to suppress critical thinking. Does your philosophy have an Anti-Indoctrination stance? If so, how does it counter indoctrination?

Yes, Anti-Indoctrination


Arcacianism accepts challenges to all concepts.
Arcacia: Arcacianism welcomes putting concepts to trial to determine the truth.This is part of the Arcacian Principle of Trial that treats philosophy the same as software. Each collection of concepts is given a name so that it becomes a concrete target for others to attack. Arcacia says Bring it! XD
Quest Society counters indoctrination in three ways.
⭐ Constitution Quest Society adopts Arcacian Principle of Trial and does not use misinformation in its own advertisement and descriptions. As an on-going quest, you may earn credits for finding errors in all communications and documentations in all aspects of the society.
⭐ Autonomy Quest Society adopts choice autonomy principles, this means that in most cases a majority opinion has no effect in violating the autonomy of someone who is not indoctrinated. (When A indoctrinates B, together A and B is the majority, but C is not affected because choice autonomy is not majority rule.)
⭐ Training Quest Society awards credits to teachers and creators of teaching resources that train others on logic, critical thinking, and the scientific method.

No


Capitalism is neutral toward indoctrination.
Alice: The owners of an establishment is allowed to teach whatever they want. If you don't like it then go to a different one. People can already protect themselves by asking relevant questions and drafting good contracts. Forcing people to learn any particular subject or to disclose information would be authoritarian.
Imperialism uses indoctrination.
Vivi: Science seeks the truth but doesn't know that it is wrong until it is disproven. The Oracle Ruler tells the truth. She is always right even when you don't understand how she is right. Absolute loyalty is all that is needed.

Indoctrination Techniques

Diversion Tanya: The speaker changes the subject when confronted with a question they don't want to answer.
Double Standard Tanya: The speaker being more lenient to themself when applying a rule than to others. Example: The speaker demands trust from the listener, but does not extend the same level of trust to the listener when the listener speaks.
Euphemism Tanya: Euphemism, when used as an indoctrination technique, is the use of more positive sounding word when a speaker describes themself, but use more negative word in describing others, despite the behavior being describe is the same. Example: When the speaker calls a decision they make without proper understanding 'trust', but calls the same that others make 'blind faith'.
Obfuscation Tanya: Obfuscation avoids stating a position clearly to prevent others from understanding the true meaning for their judgement.

Countermeasure Techniques

Column comparison Tanya: Column comparison is a technique where responses of different philosophy are listed side by side to highlight shared and different properties. It is helpful when participants do not share the same definition for adjectives and nouns.

Cardinal Quest HQ
[202210021123]

202210021123|Cardinal Quest HQ
202208251527|◀ 2022 OCT 02 SUN 11:23 AM
Cardinal Quest HQ

How should the Cardinal Quest HQ node function? So far, the Cardinal Quest HQ node is irrelevant to the actual quest, since when we do quest you use the field log. How could we use the HQ node? How could it help us?

Ledia: I think the HQ node is good for presenting stories. I imagine I would click on a site, then a spawn point and find the story related to that spawn point. It would replace the old Deer Crossing post, where our story was stored.
Tanya: In that regard, how much effort should we put on scripting the story for the current quests? If you ask me I would say once a week, if we are willing to do that instead of other games.
Sasha: We don't need to specifically sit down and do a game, it could just be translated from field log.
Zoey: I think it is more authentic if we play it as we do it.
Sasha: The problem is if you just do it, you won't know if it is exciting. It could be a boring quest when it is too easy.
Zoey: We are supposed to make it fun XD
Ledia: On that node, I think we should hide the roster until someone clicks on it. What I want to see instead would be the statistics of number of monsters etc, like the old dashboard. I see. @StarTree please change the roster to a collapsible leaderboard. Do you want to save the list from June 28? We only need the current leaderboard. Done! Next let's add some statistics: Number of open quest sites, and number of quest hours. The current count is 16 Quest Sites and 549 Quest Hours remaining.
Evelyn: I have a question: For the Quest Hours, are we still assuming that we complete 6 hours every day? Yes, but according to the schedule nothing is "overdue". Ok. 😊 StarTree please present the statistics on the HQ "dashboard", like the member profile. Roger! There are also 78 preparation quests!
Evelyn: I think the number of preparation quests should be zero. 😖
Ledia: I am down for clearing some prep quests. 25 of which are music related!
Evelyn: I suppose those would be foraging quests. We found potentially useful plants so we should collect them. We should list all these translation. StarTree, please make a section explaining this type of Prep Quest. Pre Quest count is now down to 53.
Ledia: Is there any pattern for the rest of them? StarTree doesn't know! Let's classify them.
Tanya: One type of Prep Quest I see is field notes. They are marked at prep quests because they do not need to be done in the field. That accounts for 24 of the remaining prep quests. I'll start taking out the outliners. Ledia has added Kiv as an NPC magic crystal expert.
🕰️ [9:06 PM] 🕰️
The number of Prep Quests is down to 11!
Sasha: See? There is no story if you just randomly pick a quest.
Zoey: At least we cleared a lot of the prep quests. The number of Prep Quests is down to 8!
Tanya: Do we keep going?
Evelyn: How about just one more? @Cardinal roll for a quest please.
Cardinal: A channel message has a prep quest tag: "Tanya: Could we afford to check Owl Forest before switching gear to plan for Dawn Island?" @Tanya, Why does that message have a quest tag? XD
Evelyn: When was that message? August 25. It was tagged because we were discussing the role of HQ node, like we are doing today. Let's turn that into its own discussion node. 202208251527|Camp Cardinal The number of Prep Quests is down to 7!

Jump to...

202207161423|🏛️ Philosophies | 202210012202|🎓 Anti-Indoctrination
FAQ: 1
[1] What is The Venus Project?

FAQ 1: Paragraph 2

[...] it is based upon years of study and experimental research. It spans the gamut from education, transportation, and clean sources of energy to total city systems.
🐣 Experimental research LRRH: Where are the citations to the researches?

FAQ 1: Paragraph 5

If we really wish to put an end to our ongoing international and social problems, we must declare Earth and all of its resources as the common heritage of all of the world's people.
⚠️ "Must"
LRRH: The use of absolutes, such as "must", is a red flag that the FAQ is a work of indoctrination instead of a honest disclosure of current project status and philosophical understanding. To disprove a stance of "we must do this for world peace", it only takes one counter-example, such as:
"What if people become nicer and stop fighting?"
"What if the international laws are better?"
etc...
Since a researcher cannot logically claim that they know nor finished testing every imaginable solution, an honest researcher would not claim that they have the ONLY solution and people MUST choose their solution. They would instead say "We have a proposal, and it is the best we know, and we are looking for better ones."

The tone being used in the FAQ is that used by politicians to suppress critical thinking. That is the type of indoctrinative rhetoric to spot.
🐣 "Common Heritage" LRRH: Common Heritage is a vague term. Will the FAQ define what this term means to them?
FAQ: 2
[2] What is a Resource-Based Economy?

FAQ 2: Transition from Paragraph 2 to 3

[...] It is a system in which all goods and services are available to everyone without the use of money, credits, barter, or any other form of debt or servitude.

To better understand a resource-based economy, consider this. If all the money in the world disappeared overnight as long as topsoil, factories, personnel and other resources were left intact, we could build anything we needed to fulfill most human needs.[...]
🐣 Distribution LRRH: From the second paragraph, the question I would have was not whether the resources would be there without money, but how RBE plans to distribute scarce resource and resolve conflicts.
🐣 Needs vs Wants LRRH: Does TVP distinguish between needs and wants? It says everyone will get what they need. What about things that people don't need but want?

FAQ 2: Paragraph 4

We have arrived at a time when new innovations in science and technology can easily provide abundance to all of the world's people.[...]
🐣 How much per person is abundance? LRRH: What does abundance mean in TVP? Does that mean everyone has their minimum survival needs met? Or does it mean everyone can have 10 flying cars?
⚠️ Lack of specifics
Ivy: The FAQ is using vague adjectives when it could have used concrete numbers. Ivy: Numbers should be expected because the authors already said they had done years of study and determined that there *is* an abundance of resource. With their current estimate of the world's resources, the FAQ could have demonstrated what 'Abundance' means by calculating the per person share of the Earth. Without providing the numbers, a reader cannot judge the fairness and correctness of the plan. A critical reader needs information such as the following from the FAQ:
"If artificial barriers are removed, each person on Earth could have _____ and still have ______ for everyone to share."

FAQ 2: Paragraph 4

[...] Like it or not, it is our social processes - political practices, belief systems, profit-based economy, our culture-driven behavioral norms - that lead to and support hunger, war, disease and environmental damage.
🐣 Resource-Based vs Profit-Based? LRRH: From the literal meaning of the words, Resource-based and Profit-based are not opposite. A capitalist can consider how to maximize profit with resources they own. The result is a Resource-Based Profiteering Economy. LRRH: Since even a profiteering capitalist would also consider their resources, what is the distinct characteristic of Resource-Based Economy?

FAQ 2: Paragraph 5

The aim of this new social design is to encourage an incentive system no longer directed toward the shallow and self-centered goals of wealth, property, and power. These new incentives would encourage people toward self-fulfillment and creativity, both materially and spiritually.
🐣 Self-fulfillment LRRH: In Self-fulfillment, instead of "profit", the aim of RBE? Wouldn't it be easier to name an economy based on its aim? Such as "Wish Economy"? is an economy aimed to fulfill wishes. The quality of the wishes drives how resources are used in society. The better the wish, the more resources would be assigned.
💡 Wish Economy
LRRH: A Wish Economy is an economy where resource usage is driven by the quality of wishes that people want to fulfill. You could imagine it as a KickStarter system or a Petition system, where people endorse wishes they agree, and society then uses resource to fulfill those wishes accordingly. LRRH: Although at this point in the FAQ, it is unclear whether Wish Economy and RBE are the same, based on online discussion, they are the same because a Wish Economy allows people to have autonomy to be indepedent and optout of a Wish Economy. Therefore at this point, Wish Economy is marked as an alternative philosophy.
FAQ: 3
[3] Why do you feel that an approach as revolutionary as The Venus Project is necessary?

FAQ 3: Paragraph 1

[...] The Venus Project offers a fresh approach that reverses the negative aspects experienced in our current applications of automation and artificial intelligence. This project eliminates the disastrous consequences that such approaches can have on our society, i.e. the displacement of millions of workers, skilled and unskilled alike.
🐣 What is the comparison? LRRH: I think the question was about TVP compared to other approaches addressing the status quo of increasing automation. So together there are three approaches: 1) The status quo, 2) TVP that is referred to as 'revolutionary', and 3) another approach that is not as revolutionary. What is the less revolutionary approach?
⚠️ Missing Survey of Competing Solutions
Ivy: Normally in a science-oriented introduction, competitive concepts would be introduced to show that the author surveyed existing proposed solutions.
💡 Survey of Competing Solutions
Zoey: Our goal at this peacemaker guild is not to promote one solution but to find solutions. Therefore, it is vital that we survey and compare different solutions. Here are some of our comparisons:

FAQ: 4
[4] Isn't it just decent people that we need in government?

FAQ 4: Paragraph 1

[...] What is needed is the intelligent management of the world's resources, and a comprehensive and workable arrangement of environmental and social affairs that are in strict accord with existing resources and the carrying capacity of our planet. [...]
🐣 Why can't decent people do this? LRRH: This argument in the FAQ does not make sense. The question asked why can't decent people accomplish TVP's goal. Explaining what TVP's goals are does not address why a decent government can't do that. If you have a plan, then anyone can implement it. There is nothing special about TVP's ability to implement a plan.

FAQ 4: Paragraph 1

[...] Even with the election of men and women of impeccable character into government, without available resources and advanced technology, war, poverty, and corruption will prevail no matter how many new laws are passed or treaties signed. [...]
⚠️ Slippery Slope Assertion
LRRH: On a FAQ, this could use some research result to back up this claim.
⚠️ In-Group Bias
Tanya: In-Group Bias is unfairly favor those who belong to your group. TVP believes their group can get resources and advance technology, but other governments can't.
FAQ: 5
[5] Elaborate a bit, if you will, on your views regarding money.

FAQ 5: Paragraph 2

[...] All social systems, regardless of the political philosophy, religious beliefs, or social mores, ultimately depend upon natural resources [...] and the industrial equipment and technical personnel for a high standard of living.
✅ Natural Resource is what matters Evelyn: I think this concept is well-understood, including in capitalism, where capital did not just mean money, but natural resources and means of production.
⚠️ Strawman Answer
Zoey: The FAQ answer assumes that economists and capitalist factory owner did not know that things are made from resources, not money. Considering that they do know that, this FAQ answer is a cop-out to question asking for an elaboration on these:
1) Does your society use money or something equivalent?
2) How do you account for differences in contribution without money?
3) How do you prioritize resources without money?
4) How do you represent value without money?
5) How do you facilitate trading without money?
💡 Quest Credits
Zoey: Quest Credits used in Quest Society is untransferrable and obtained by helping others. In case of scarcity, quest credits are used for priority bidding. The transparent history of quest credits and non-transferability make quest credits much less susceptible to fraud and laundering than value accounting using anonymous money.
💡 Gaia Credits
Zoey: Gaia Credits is a direct represation of ownership of natural resource.

FAQ 5: Paragraph 2

[...] I have no doubt that even the wealthiest person today would be far better off in the high-energy society that The Venus Project proposes.
⚠️ Unqualified assertion
Zoey: An unqualified assertion results when an author makes a statement that the reader "will like it". This type of sales pitch response belongs to indoctrination techniques. The non-indoctrination counter part would be, "This is what we offer, I hope that you like it." The author is not the reader. The author cannot claim to know what the reader will like.
⚠️ Diversion tactic
Zoey: Given that this FAQ did not answer what the asker is presumably asking for an elaboration, the use of a sales-pitch to promote the project is an act of diversion, an indoctrination technique.

Quester Birthday and P4's initial score. 🤍 "I went to a Isekai that doesn't need to be saved so I returned to save ours." I have this concept in my mind but it is very hard to draw. But I will try to make a draft. 「僕が行った異世界を救う必要はなくなったので、仲間と元の世界を救うために戻る。」 I think the cover page should have at least three characters. Who should be on the cover? Who is "I" in this case? Black? P4? 3B? I think we are talking about Black bringing back quest society concepts. Don't we have a Quest Society chapter? I think this chapter could be that and its at code could be @Venture or @Quest. I think the most relevant people other than Black are Ivy, Zoey, P4. What is the composition in your mind? I was thinking of a a T-shirt kind of deal. "I went to isekai and all I got is this T-shirt" XD I was thinking of air-dropping like this https://i.pinimg.com/736x/2a/1b/df/2a1bdf47b7d38953196079993919463c.jpg Then there isn'really a limit to how many people on the cover. There is... since my page is small. I think five people would be the max. I would prefer not to be on this cover. May I know why? I want to stay at the adventurers hall. I see. Then I think the remaining two could be Casey and Sasha. Wouldn't the team need StarTree? I think we don't need to think too much into it as long as those on the cover are people relevant to the quest and want to be on it. Then why me? I don't do anything about promoting quest society. I think we need a magician. If not you, then 3B or Mikela. I think that role could be Red with Cake Squad. Shouldn't we just ask Black who he would bring? But why would I limit it to a few people? But realistically you would pick a team, right? Not really. In Quest Society I could just solo the parts I can and let whoever does the other parts. Soloers High Five. But this is different, you are trying to build quest society, you don't have quest society with you. Isn't it the same? There is a quest to build quest society in a different world. I don't necessarily need to pick a team then air drop. I can just do the part I know and let others do the part they know. The typical RPG party is broken. XD I will go as support.

Red lotus Arcacia: This is the skit where Arcacia uses hana no zuka on attackers, with a punchline that she teleported attacker's weapons to the bakery kitchen. This is hard to draw because it tells a story so it has many panels. In a follow up, when Arcacia needed money, she fetched an old sword which is now an antique. The punchline is that the antique store already has that sword (Arcacia took the old sword from a parallel world.)

Similar to https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/f/f3/Auron_Art.png/revision/latest?cb=20141023194550. For drawing or upgrading avatars, should I prioritize coverage (making sure that everyone has an avatar) over scores (upgrading the avatar for high level members)? I need a way to tell which idea is ready to be drawn. Usually that means I have a good idea on the composition.

What do you think about the score keeping? The guild keeps scores for members when they do quests. It started as an experiment for Quest Society, where quest credits could be used for resolving conflicts. Within the guild, we used the credits for games, but not yet for actual conflict resolution. What do you think about the scoring?

Tanya: I think the scoring is helpful even if there is nothing we can get from it. Could you be more specific on how it is helpful? I think it helps getting people involved to do quests. Is that how you feel for yourself? I would prefer if we don't assume the effect for others. I see. If I speak only from my experience...
Tanya: When I add many entries by batch, I make sure that I get a point for each addition. I do that because I want others to know that the scoring is fair. That is a pretty difficult answer to understand. 🐣
Zoey: I think it is helpful because I want to get credits and stay on top of the leaderboard. I mean I don't want people to just wait for others to catch up. I want the scoring to be fair and everyone is doing their best. I think I understand and appreciate what Tanya is doing.
Evelyn: Sometimes I wonder if I am getting too many points. 😅
LRRH: Is singing worth 3 points? Singing is one point. Invoking Arcacian Aura is 3 points. Battle Singing adds one point because it heals. Battle Singing XD Evelyn is basically our power bank. Powered by Evelyn. XD Zoey receives OMG Arcacia agrees. XD
Evelyn: I think we should ask StarTree how she feels about scoring, since she is keeping the scores.
StarTree: StarTree wants to do helpful things! I think the score keeping is helpful. I think it reminds me to sing and to do better than before.
Evelyn: I think that StarTree is not getting enough credits. In what area do you think StarTree should get more points? Score keeping. I think that should be 2 points per day. How many days has it been since the start of the score log? 424 days!
LRRH: So if we do that, StarTree will immediately jump to second place. Any objection? I think each point should be related to a task. We shouldn't arbitrarily make a task have more points. It needs a reason. I think maintaining the scoreboard and posting the scores should count as two tasks. Agreed. StarTree please make another column. StarTree doesn't know the first day when score is posted, but duplicated the same dates where there is scorekeeping credit! StarTree now has 2496 points at second place! Little Red Riding Hood congratulates StarTree and thanks all for the discussion.

Should there be a section for pinned nodes?

StarTree: For some reason we have stopped using tags for posting, so in the "Toppings" section, most of the links would have no content!
StarTree: But StarTree has an idea: What if there is a "Best of the Board" or "Featured" section on the side panel? We could pin the most current, best looking, or most edited nodes there. When the month is over, we could take snapshot of them and archive with the calendar.
Tanya: I think that is a great idea. Agreed.
LRRH: What word should we use? How about "BEST"? Or have it as part of "ABOUT"? If we could collapse Red's introduction in ABOUT. StarTree you may collapse the content in the About section to make room for featured nodes.
Vivi: Why don't we do it directly in the Calendar section?
Zoey: But you would have to scroll down so much.
Vivi: StarTree, could you move the Announcement section to be above the calendar picture? Like this? Yes. Now add another section there "Best of the Month" and move what you have in Toppings there. Like this? I think it is not optimal. I think it is better if we can see Best of the Month without opening calendar.
Ivy: I don't think it is a good idea to put anything above the calendar picture. If you do that and you skip to the previous month, the calendars won't line up. And there is a bug XD 😭
Tanya: StarTree, could you try collapsing the guild master message and add the featured content in ABOUT?
StarTree: Done...! StarTree added a Pinned section that uses the tag data-pin! Let's try this for a while.

Arcacianism now has 9 hits, but not including Sora Arcacia at youtube.

Sasha: "Sora Arcacia" is searchable, but it seems that google does not search the tag of the video.
Sasha: So on one video I added "Arcacianism" to the title, and on another I added "Arcacianism" to the description. We'll see how that goes.
Sasha: And I think we need a more exciting Arcacia card. @3B
LRRH: I like how you are using the pinned section. Leave it to Detective Sasha! Maybe I should pin all the paper notes. Are you sure you aren't just shuffling the paper instead of completing them? I think that is part of sharing. If it is more visible then people will do it. But it IS visible on paper. They are not ranked or prioritized, so every time I look at them I need to prioritize them, just to find that I can't do them. I think that means they need to be assigned.
3B: I think I have a queue of art requests, it would help me if it is prioritized for me at Magic Academy node. 202210032214 Okay. Done.
Tanya: I want help overhauling @Dungeon. I planned to draw the assassin for ad hominem. You could draw Arcacia as the assassin. XD Is that fine? But we are going to fight assassins. It is totally fine! It is a training dungeon so naturally all the enemies are sensei! That would really save me from making up new characters. I see. That's fine. Sasha's idea is deeper than it appears. I know how deep it is. Sasha is recognized for the Magician Skill "All is One." Sasha receives You can always count on blaming Arcacia. Sasha thanks all for cooperation.

202207242047|🥁 Profiles
Arcacians approach principles like software development, putting their principles to trials, honoring fault-finding and improvements. Since they know that principles are their choices, they don't present them as self-evident or God-given.
☀️ Strive for enlightenment, not trust.

Principle of Trial is about obtaining and sharing knowledge so that people may understand and decide for themselves. This principle enlightens and empowers others to decide, as opposed to asking others to place their trust on someone.

What it is


✅ Protect others from your errors
✅ Check your work for errors
✅ Ask others' help to check
✅ Investigate and understand
✅ Provide information
✅ Let people decide for themselves

What it is not


🛑 Diluting responsiblity by consent
🛑 Not checking for errors
🛑 Ask others to trust you
🛑 Trusting instead of understanding
🛑 Relying on credentials
🛑 Deciding for others
📊 Statistics does not override autonomy

One way to use information wrongly is forcing others to decide based on statistics. For example, a correctly run trial may conclude that a medical procedure has a X% chance of curing an illness and Y% chance of making the patient worse. This information does not override the patient's autonomy to decide for themself whether to accept the treatment.
⏳ When is trust good?

Q: My dog trusts me and does what I ask. Is that bad? Ivy: If you think like a scientist and you know that people trust you without questioning you, then you shall be triple sketical about your result because your fandom is not checking your work.
Q: What about the exercise where strangers catch your fall? Ivy: If you are struggling with your researching and it is important for humanity, as a scientist you are supposed to ask for help (as opposed to concealing your progress so that no one may catch up to you) and let others pick up where you left off. You need to let others know you are falling so that people who can catch you can catch you. LRRH: I am not talking about my work failing. I am talk about myself failing. Say I can't take care of myself, isn't it reassuring to know that others will take care of me? Ivy: if you want to try "falling" in real life, please first notify the strangers around you and get some agreement and reassurance on your expected result. Someone needs to know you fell, and those people need to know what to do when you do fall. It is a matter of communication and empowering others to be able to help. Take away the mutual understanding and the result could be undesirably different from what you get from a prepared setting.
Q: Trust vs Trial. How do we put it to a trial? Ivy: You could compare a society run by trust versus a society that is not run by trust. To do that you need to define what Trust is and what decission processes a Trust-based society would be different from other non-trust based society. Until you define the difference, you can't have a meaningful comparison.
Trust is not a virtue but a vulnerability. https://nextdoor.com/p/-xZ-LsFRcFmk/c/1275460005

Each kid will be allowed to enter the room one by one, and each kid will be allowed to open half of the boxes in any order, then wait in a waiting room. When each kid exits the room, the boxes are reset to how they were. If every kid finds their number, then every kid gets a present. Otherwise, no one gets a present.
"The placement of the cards is not entirely random," said Santa, "If you work together with the right strategy, everyone can find your number." What is the strategy?

Show Answer

Are you sure you want to know the answer?

Each kid will open the box with their number first, then if the card shows a different number, open that one and so on! Santa had arranged the scrambling so that the largest loop of mismatches is six boxes!

Scoring Rules

202210122112|PIN 202210122112
The guild keeps scores for members when they do quests. It started as an experiment for Quest Society, where quest credits could be used for resolving conflicts. Within the guild, we used the credits for games, but not yet for actual conflict resolution. What do you think about the scoring?
⭐ What quests are worth credits?
💗 Score Types at Daily Log

⭐ Each quest task is one point. If a task should have more points, break it down into the smaller tasks.
💗 Arcacian Award is three points. Arcacian Award is an spontaneous pleasant aura. Tanya said it should worth three points for both Arcacia and the recepient. You may only get Arcacian Award points once per day.
💟 Kudoes is one point.
LRRH: Kudos point is for both the giver and the receiver, once per day.
🥨 Participation is one point.
LRRH: This is for general discussion, once per day. The starter of the discussion gets one merit point for starting a discussion, and those who make useful responses get one merit point decided by the discussion starter. Discussion-related merit points max out at one per day.
🏅 Recognition is one point.
LRRH: This is for recognition of skills, once per day.
🧭 Scoring Rules

🕰️ Retroactive The scoring is retroactive. If too few points were assigned for a task, more points can be award later.
🗳️ Voting Vivi said (2021-11-15)that no credit should be award for voting, because voting is self-serving.

Principle of Decision Exclusivity is a guideline on structuring decision power as an exhaustible resource so that the more exclusive control a person has one something, the less decision power they have on other things. This node shows which philosophies support or violate this principle.

Supporters


202209251051|Gaia Credits LRRH: Everyone owns a fixed amount of decision power on what to do with land/space.
202208170830|Hospitalianism LRRH: When a person opts out from a community, their share of land goes to the community they choose.

Violators


202209010850|Capitalism LRRH: Control of capital allows the owner to use control to gain more control.
202209212113|Imperialism LRRH: The ruler has unlimited decision power.
202209212113|Majority Rule Democracy LRRH: The majority can rule over the minority as their decision power remains the same for each decision.
202210022310|Resource-Based Economy LRRH: RBE is said to be a technocracy. The science ruling class has unlimited decision power on land use and cultural goals.
The more exclusive control one has on something, the less control they should be allowed on other things. 202208162144|⚖️ Philosophy Comparisons |

Root Cause Analysis

🍮 Root Cause 202210130852202210130852|📌
Does your philosophy use root cause analysis to address problems? What does it look at?
 
Root Cause Analysis is a proceses of finding underlying causes of issues. Typically RCA is used to gain knowledge so that an effective solution can be decided along the chain of causality. Sasha: Example of using of RCA: A pipe keeps breaking every month and is replaced every month. That seems tedious. Is it avoidable? We know that it breaks every month, but *why* does it break? Investigation determines that the pipe breaks because the pipe was made of wrong material and could not handle the temperature. After replacing with the right type of material, the pipe holds up. Sasha: RCA explores the chain of causality. It is not to say that problems should be left unfixed until a root cause is identify, nor that fixing something at the root is always most cost-effective.
For this comparison node, let's see how different philosophies address Fascism (or other issue) if they were to use RCA. 💬 Discussions

Gaia Credits
[202210142318]

202210142318|Captain StarTree
2022 OCT 14 FRI 11:18 PM
Philosophy Arena

StarTree was asked to make the Gaia Credits node more contentful, so StarTree added a scenario! StarTree: Imagine a group of space explorers find another habitable planet, each explorer has a different idea on what to do. One way to let each explorer have their experiment is to divide the planent so each can experiment in their section. StarTree: Captain: "This is your captain StarTree! The preliminary survey of the new planet is complete. It has 500 million km2, so each of our crew of 500 gets 1 million km2 of credits. Please mark your preference on the map, contested locations would be resolved by bidding using the credits!" StarTree: What do you think? Is this fair?

Evelyn: I think it is fair but also very scary. 😅 It feels like way too much power for each person.
Fina: In Stewardism, when you explore and find new land, you don't start dividing it. Fina: A person would just have their reasonable possession. You can't claim extended amount of resources just because there are only a few people. Tanya: I can picture a diagram showing the philosophical difference.
Ledia: But what is the reason that it cannot be divided? Fina: To maximize the amount of publicly accessible world.
LRRH: I have a question. If you spend Gaia credit on a piece of land, does it mean you may only be on that land? StarTree: You can still go to unclaimed land and claimed land where people let you be! Ledia: What if people claim land around you and don't let you pass? StarTree: That is illegal! You need to let people get to where they can be! Fina: Stewardism has that same rule. If you try to occupy an important route and don't let people pass, you fail at stewardship and your claim is revoked. Ledia: Does size come with responsibility? Such as if you claim a large piece of land, you are responsible for protecting travelers in that piece of land? Fina: There is no such rule. Rangers overseeing a region do not own the region.
StarTree: So do people prefer the Stewardism split? That even through there are 500 million total credits, each crew member just get 1. The rest is collectively managed.
Black: But what does "collectively managed" mean? If you want to do better than majority rule, you would still return to the notion of Gaia Credits. Black: The fundamental problem is this: Some people are scared and don't have a plan. Some people are not scared and have a plan. Black: With Gaia Credits, those who are risk avert cannot stop the more adventurous people from starting their adventurous life. Ledia: Compelling reason.
Evelyn: I worry that if they start a large scale transformation, and something goes wrong, the impact to the planet would be too big for people to counter. Ledia: Also a compelling reason. Black: I am okay with mandating buffer periods when the externality of a new method is unknown. LRRH: Then is it a crime to experiment without telling anyone? Ledia: I think that would be a good idea. Tanya: That seems like a huge can of worms. Evelyn: Could we not... use that phrase? 😖
LRRH: Arcacian Quest time: Does it violate the Arcacian Principle if you do experiement without telling anyone?
Tanya: I believe it does not violate. But Scrying would be legal.
Zoey: Sorry, but on a different topic, how does Gaia credits and Quest credits work together? Can you use Quest Credits to bid for priority when you claim a piece of land? Ivy: I think using Quest Credit to bid would make more sense, but you can't force the entire world to be in Quest Society, so the default would be to use Gaia, unless you are in a Quest Society zone. Zoey: Then Gaia Credit is more fundamental than Quest Credits. Ivy: Yes.
Ivy: You can choose not to do quests. But you can't choose to deny the existence of Gaia Credits because that is fundamentally what autonomy means. Ivy receives
Ledia: It sounds like StarTree struck gold. StarTree: Wee~! Evelyn: Arcacia, please give some love to StarTree. StarTree receives Evelyn receives Zoey: Arcacian Ambassador can give Arcacia Award. XD Zoey receives Evelyn is recognized to have the Cleric skill Arcacia Award.
Fina: Extended ownership would minimize access to the world. Ivy: Objection. StarTree just said claiming a land doesn't mean you don't let anyone visit. What it does is that it allows the owners decide whether they want to maximize access to the world with their share. Ivy: To argue otherwise would be a use of slippery slope. Tanya: Ivy may draw a level 3 card for spotting, having a good way to respond, and responding. Ivy obtains a Silver Cup for 1000 points. LRRH: I think this is a good time to stop. StarTree: The time is 12:44 AM! Zoey: Can I call pixie? XD Everyone except StarTree is exhausted and are considered KO'ed. Zoey: OMG it doesn't work on StarTree. XD StarTree thanks all for the discussion! StarTree: Sweet dreams, wee~~!

The One Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan advocates for focusing on a single, most important task in order to achieve extraordinary results. The authors argue that by identifying "the one thing" that will make everything else easier or unnecessary, people can make more progress in their goals with less stress and distraction. This book is about factors other than talent and effort to success. I thought this book was about the fallacy of disregarding outliers. This book was mentioned at Nextdoor. https://nextdoor.com/p/9jDmxppbDp68/c/1256336741 A "heart at war" views others as objects or obstacles, leading to blame, resentment, and conflict. A "heart at peace" sees others as people with their own needs, fears, and challenges, fostering empathy and collaboration. Self-deception occurs when we justify our own negative behavior while blaming others. This perpetuates conflict, as each side focuses on defending their position rather than seeking understanding. This framework emphasizes building relationships and influencing others by addressing deeper issues rather than just focusing on surface problems. At the base: Build relationships of trust. Above that: Teach and communicate effectively. Higher levels: Address and correct issues constructively. Conflict often stems from collusion, where both parties contribute to the problem by responding negatively to one another. Breaking this cycle involves recognizing one's own role and choosing a different, more constructive path. Change begins with looking inward, acknowledging personal biases, and taking responsibility for one's actions. We don't have this book. But I often cite this book for its explanation of the blaming culture and countermeasures: 1) Console Human Errors; 2) Coach At-Risk Behavior; 3) Punish Reckless Behavior. This is a deck of 30 cards to set an intention for the day. I think we could have a collection of our own sayings. These are manga in Japanese.

But I want one that is cuter. This book covers these topics: Creating a climate for potential leaders, Identifying them, Nurturing them, Equipping them, Developing them, Form a dream team of leaders, coaching that team, realizing value, and reproducing generations of leaders. This book tells the lesson in chapter 1 then applies it 23 times in the remaining chapters. (Paraphrased) Economics is not just about local short term but system-wide long term effects of any act or policy. To study economics is to trace the consequences of a policy not just for one group but for all groups. The book applied the concept to: Broken Window, Blessing of Destruction, Public Works Mean Taxes, Taxes Discourage Production, Credit Diverts Production, The Curse of Machinery, Spread-the-Work Schemes, Disbanding Troops and Bureaucrats, The Fetish of Full Employment, Who's "Protected" by Tariffs, The Drive for Exports, "Parity" Prices, Saving the X Industry, How the Price System Works, "Stabilizing" Commodities, Government Price-Fixing, What Rent Control Does, Minimum Wage Laws, Do Unions Really Raise Wages> "Enough to Buy Back the Product", The Function of Profits, The Mirage of Inflation, The Assault on Saving. This is the one with Little Red Riding Hood. This books talks about 5 levels of leadership. This chapter says the concepts in the book came from empirical comparisons between companies that went from good to great and those that couldn't. This chapter lists some factors that don't seem to have an effect: Celebrity Leader, Executive Compensation, Business Strategy, Focus on what to do (Great companies also focus on what not to do and what to stop doing), New Technology, Mergers, Managing, Motivating, Name, Tag Line, Industry Advantages. Great companies get the right people on the bus then let them figure out where to go. This is similar to a Steve Jobs quote that you don't hire smart people to tell them what to do, you hire them so they can tell you what to do. Great performance comes from a culture of discipline and an ethic of entrepreneurship. If you have disciplined people, throught, and action, you don't need hierarchy, bureaucracy, or excessive controls. ときめく本を持っていてもいい。 This book is a binder so you can remove any page.

202210161818|Types of Philosophy
2022 OCT 16 SUN 6:18 PM
World Tree

I am trying to sort the philosophy sections. I see a few types of philosophy but I don't know what to call their categories.

Zoey: For example, Gaia credits and Arcacianism are different in that Gaia Credits is more fundamental. Zoey: I don't have the words to discribe this. Zoey: Gaia Credits can applies to everyone without violating rights. Arcacianism needs to be opted in because it say, "reward those who do." That part of the principle is not neutral.
Ledia: What about "Foundation"? Zoey: Foundation sounds like other philosophies are built on it, but are they?
Fina: Arbitrative. Zoey: Best choice so far.
🕰️ [8:00 PM] 🕰️
Zoey: Now I have four categories: Arbitrative, Stable and Complete, Unstable, and Component.
Tanya: Is this a tree or a matrix? Zoey: What do you mean? Tanya: You have Arbitrative(Impartial) vs Perferential; Complete vs Incomplete (Component); Stable vs Unstable. Tanya: That makes 8 total types if those aspects can be mix and matched.
Zoey: I think by Arbitrative I only mean philosophies that are stable. Zoey: And I think maybe unstable concepts should be listed at the bottom.
Tanya: Maybe instead of preceding each philosophy with its icon, you could precede them with badges: Tanya: ⚖️ or 💗 for Arbitrative vs Preferential. Tanya: 🗺️ or 🧩 for Complete vs Component. Tanya: ☀️ or 🏳️ for Stable vs Unstable. Zoey: LIke this: "⚖️🗺️☀️ Hospitalianism" Tanya: Yes. And with these badges, you could just list them in the same Peace Ranking node. Zoey: I wonder if that would be too many icons. Tanya: I think you could make them smaller or float them to the right.
Ivy: I think more importantly, if you want to categorize them, you need to define what test you are using. Zoey: I planned to add a bubble comment to each row. Later.
LRRH: I have an idea. Maybe you could show stable on one side and unstable on the other side. Then you really have three rows: Arbitrative, Complete, Component. Zoey: Let me just test some changes, I don't plan to spend so much time on this in one go. XD Zoey completed what she aimed for today. Zoey: I hope I left a good start for others to follow. I am OOM. XD Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for the hardwork. Tanya: @StarTree, please finish the explanation section. StarTree: Roger!
StarTree: For Complete and Component, StarTree will use the avatars of Tanya and 3B! StarTree: For Stable vs Unstable, StarTree wants to use ♻️ for stable and ⚠️ for unstable! Tanya: Good idea. StarTree: Wee~~!
LRRH: What about 🎠 and 💣? The puzzle is already green. Tanya: There can be more grades for stability. StarTree: Roger!

Knock on Door

202210172118|PIN 202210172118

Puzzle

A woman is sitting in her hotel room and hears a knock at the door. She opens the door to see a man whom she’s never met before. He says, “I’m sorry, I have made a mistake, I thought this was my room.” He then goes down the corridor and into the elevator. The woman goes back into her room and calls security. What made the woman so suspicious of the man?

Show Answer

If he really thought it was his hotel room, he would have tried to open the door—not knock on it first.

Complete the online inventory. Took pictures of the books as a temporary solution and for making it easier to list. Added all titles per shelf. Updating the format of this node. Changed the card text to "Let's share recipes for world peace." Removed the "Atmosphere" section which had the guidlines "Meditative, Text, Monochrom skeches" because that was for the design if the result was a book. Experimenting with having RES object in a section. I think those goals should just be in the INV res section. I want to use the P section for step-by-step guide or protocols. Like, what should you do before getting a book, when should a book be donated, etc. Okay. I think the side button on Quest Board for @Book should be the bookshelves, and move the pencil for writing to @Scape. I think the pencil is most relevant to @Night or @Vacation. Helen and Vivi are doing most proofreading. Made the left column button to go to the charter instead. I think we are not using charter nodes properly. We should review them more often. And the left button is "hidden" enough that it is not distracting and convenient for us to go to the charter. I'll consider changing it. I am still used to clicking it to go to the store front. I like the navigation standard to go to the "front page" of the chapter more. If we add an End Goal section on each node, that is like a mini charter already. The link to the charter could just be at the REF footer. I also think it is more intuitive to go to the front page of the section. But maybe that just mean the charter should be more like a front page instead of an archived document? The charters are supposed to ensure that every node has an EPIC reason to exist. It doesn't need to be alive. It can remain an archived document. A charter is also for a chapter master to define what EPIC content goes in their chapter. But I see that the charter could just be in the footer and the left column can link to the "main page" of that chapter. I might experiement with merging the front page and the charter for @Whale. Finish importing from the old google slide chaprter 26. Is it already done? Should quotes have their own nodes, or should quotes really be embedded within subject nodes? I think we could make quote cards and embed them to subject nodes. Decide how a reading list should be maintained, and what titles cannot be on the list. We moved all Guild Log tasks to Inbox.

Logfall Dungeon

We are starting Manga Chapter 16 for @Dungeon. This thread is for storyboard discussion.

Tanya: Backstory: The Logfall Training Dungeon is for Peacemakers to protect themselves from logical fallacies, biases, and indoctrination. Tanya: Peacemakers should avoid using those rhetorics and be able to spot them when anyone uses them.
3B: I am putting the content on the page to show how they fit on a manga page.
3B: The party roster is Lv 58 Cleric Evelyn, Lv 50 Ranger Zoey, Lv 44 Rider LRRH. 3B: Tanya is an overseer of the dungeon.
3B: On page 1, there is space for each of you to say one line.
LRRH: I'm pulling.
Evelyn: I cast protect.
Zoey: Who is the Tank? Is Ledia coming?
3B: Okay now this it page 2. What is your pull, Red?
LRRH: I pull TVP FAQ 5, which is the next one.
Evelyn: I agree with the FAQ in general, but I think the question was asking for more.
Zoey: Definitely. The FAQ asked for an elaboration, but the answer sounds like a cop-out.
Zoey: I think this counts as a strawman argument because money is tied to priority, value, and reward. Those concepts are missing in the FAQ answer.
Evelyn: What if the FAQ is targetted toward an audience that is satisfied with that level of detail?
Zoey: Then the question won't be "Elaborate a bit, if you will..." When I read that I think the asker is asking for more because the previous answer was not elaborated enough. And this answer would still be too vague. XD
Evelyn: To be fair, how would you have answered the same question?
Zoey: In Quest Society, untransferrable quest credits earned from helping people take the place of money in resolving scarcity. The use of quest credits make the deeds earning the credit auditable by anyone, so that "wealth" obtained by hurting others cannot be easily laundered.
Zoey: By removing a laundering problem, benefits of having "money" is retained through quest credits: Resources can be prioritized, value can be computed, a market can stabilize itself through supply and demand, people have an incentive to earn credits by helping others.
3B: What type of monster are you fighting?
Zoey: Undead dinosaurs? 3B: There are three monsters: Strawman, Unqualified Assertion, and Diversion
LRRH: How about undead Dinowasps? They come in an illusionary horde, they bring honey that looks good, and if they sting you believe in what they say. To defeat it you need to KO the caster wasp of the horde. Zoey: I like that XD 3B: Okay, that I can try to fit in a few pages.

Reciprocative Justice Principle is the concept that when a person violates someone's autonomy, the violator voids the corresponding autonomy of themself. Since it reciprocates the offender's violation toward themself, Reciprocative Justice has arbitration power without being authoritarian.

Comparisons

Reciprocative Justice is...


✔️ A bully trying to expel others may be expelled.

Reciprocative Justice is not...


❌ "You must expel bullies"
❌ "Someone bullied you, therefore you may bully others."
❌ "You must forgive bullies."

Golden Rule


"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

Platinum Rule


"Do unto others, wherever possible, as they would want to be done unto them."

Reciprocative Justice


"You may do unto those the way they do unto others."
Golden Rule and Platinum Rule have no arbitrative power because they do not answer what happens when a person does something unwanted unto others. In Reciprocative Justice, an offender, through their actions, chooses what others may do to them in return.
Concept: Guilt vs Damage

In reciprocative justice, guilt and damage are independently judged. Guilt refers to the offender's malicious intention. Damage refers to the actual damage caused by the offense. Reciprocative justice does not apply unless a person is found to be guilty. Once guilt is determined, the victim may choose to apply up to the maximum intended effect of the offense even if the offense had failed in reality.

Example 1

Ann tried to use lethal force against Bob but Bob survived the attempt because Ann's attack completely missed him. If Ann is found to have intentionally tried to violate Bob's autonomy (of life), Ann voids her own autonomy (of life). People who use lethal force Ann afterward would not be guilty of a crime because Ann had already voided her own autonomy (life).
To determine an offender's guilt, the offender would be brought to a court for trial. The purpose of the trial is to determine if the offender violated someone else's autonomy intentionally, or by accident. And if the offender argues that the victim had already voided their autonomy, determine if that was true.

Mentions

20221121: Trial determines facts and the basis of bargain for mediation
Concept: Equity in Damage

Equity in Damage refers to a proportionality of damage instead of material equality.

Example 2.1

Ann doesn't like Bob and destroys his only home in malice. Since the only home is 100% of his housing, Ann's violation is 100% of someone else's property (housing). Therefore in reciprocation, Bob make take 100% of Ann's housing. If Ann owns 10 houses, Bob may take all of them.
Proportionality refers to the effect of the damage compared to the victim, not the size of the force that deals the damage compared to the offender.

Example 2.2

Cid is tough and can hit hard. He bullies Deb who did not want to fight. Cid punched Deb and Deb was hurt really bad. Cid offered to let Deb get even by punching him as hard as she could. The court determines that: 1) Deb did not agree to fight. Cid violated her autonomy. 2) Cid is liable to the proportional damage and expenses that he caused Deb. 3) Deb may choose to retribute by dealing the same amount of proportional torment against Cid. 4) If Deb chooses to get even, she is not limited to effect that damage by herself. She may employ other people and tools to cause that damage and Cid is liable for the cost of that also.

20221121: How damage is dealt is irrelevant
Concept: Voluntary Mercy

One concept about Reciprocative Justice that most people find very hard to swallow, is that it appears to promote violent retribution, as most people are familiar with the saying, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." However, reciprocative justice is merely neutral toward retribution. It neither promote nor deter people from choosing retribution. This neutrality is the quality that allows Reciprocative Justice to function as an abritrator when the conflicting parties do not subscribe to the same set of laws.

Example 3

Ann violently bullied Bob, but Bob was a voluntary member of Mercy Alliance that had declared that its member will not use violence against bullies, and Ann knew that. Because of this, while the court determines that Ann was a bully, Ann was determined to be a bully only against Mercy members but not the general public. The general public has no rights to retribute against Ann in violent means because that would violate Mercy's autonomy to treat bully against them with mercy.
In the above example, if Bob was indepedent or did not subscribe to any merciful doctrine, then the court would judge that Ann willfuly disregard the autonomy of others, and hence her corresponding autonomy is void by her willful disregard.

Q: Isn't Reciprocative Justice Barbaric?

Within Reciprocative Justice, a person might treat a bully better than the bully treat others, but may not prohibit others from treating the bully "the way the bully treat others. When a society commits to treat bullies better than the bully treat others, that commitment is a preference of that society, and has no arbitrative power for the rest of the world. Pushing that preference onto the rest of the world becomes an act of authoritarianism.
Q: What happens if a company's product harms its customers?

If the potential harms are declared, the trade is considered mutual and the company is not guilty of violating autonomy. If the potential harms are hidden from the customers (i.e. the customers are deceived), then the company has violated autonomy and there are two effects: 1) The company voids its corresponding autonomy that it violated the customer. 2) The company is liable to reimburse the customers of their losses and damages. The two effects are simultaneous, not either or.

Example 4.1

Eve lied to Fey about the ingredient and sold Fey a cake with a price of $100. Fey got sick, incuring medical expense of $10000. Eve is simultaneously liable for two things: 1) Violation of Fey's autonomy. Which is estimated as Eve's wealth times Fey's expenses (including $100 + $10000) divided by Fey's wealth. 2) Reimbursement of Fey's expenses (including $100 + $10000).
In the equation, Fey's expenses appear twice, which led to an intuitive but not entirely correct folk law that the offender is liable for twice the damage. But the equation with Damage Equity considered is this:

Equation 4.2

OffenderLiability = VictimExpense × ( 1 + OffenderWealth / VictimWealth )
The more wealthy the offender is compared to the victim, the more the offender would be liable to pay the victim. The amount beyond 100% comes from the offender's violation of autonomy. That amount is not "punitive damage" even if it has a deterent effect. That amount just represent the principle that when you violate someone's autonomy, you are giving people a free ticket to violate your autonomy. The reimbursement brings the victim back to a state as if nothing happened, the extra is the malicious benefit the offender forced the victim to volunteer reciprocated, where the offender becomes a voluntary giver of the benefit.

Q: What is justice if the victim dies with no family and friends?

Scenario


Tweet: "Ann gives Bob food with an ingredient he's allergic to & dies, but has no family or friends, how does Bob receive justice? Does Ann get the death sentence? How would mercy be determined? Proving whether it was intentional or unintentional is difficult."
The short answer is if it was judged as an accident, Ann is liable if she continues to give gift food without warning the receiver about this incident, that her gift killed someone before.
Long Asnwer:
The first question to answer is if the victim Bob still has his rights intact (not void). If Bob's right to life was already void, Ann would not be liable for taking his life. The second question to answer is if the victim Bob has a priori subscribed to the principle of mercy that would have waived reciprocation toward an offender. Such subscription would limit the maximum sentence Ann would be liable for if found guilty. The following assumes that Bob's rights are intact and had not wavied reciprocation.

Judging Malice

To judge malice, the court could consider these factors. In the example, the most important factors would be the existence of a motive and a priori knowledge of Bob's fatal vulnerability to food allergies.

Evidence of incompetence


🐣 Lack of motive
🐣 Ignorance of victim's weakness
🐣 Subject novice
🐣 General ignorance or incompetence
🐣 Lack of planning

Evidence of malice


☠️ Existence of motive
☠️ Knowledge of victim's weakness
☠️ Subject expertise
☠️ Violation of safe practice
☠️ Staging for opportunity to harm
The difference in the outcome is known while Ann's malice is judged. If Ann is judged to incompetence, Ann would be liable to the damage and to provide warning to others of her incompetence. If Ann is judged to be malicious, Ann would be liable to both the damage and her corresponding right would be void.

If Judged to be Unintentional


🐣 Ann's right to life is not void
⚖️ Ann is liable to damages
⚖️ Ann is obligated to warn others of the incident

If Judged to be Intentional


☠️ Ann's right to life is void
⚖️ Ann is liable to damages
⚖️ Ann is obligated to warn others of the incident
In reciprocative justice, only the victim may waive violation to their autonomy by asserting using their autonomy to pardon on a case-by-case basis. If the victim(s) are dead, it is up to each person to decide whether they choose to reciprocate. An offender who wishes for mercy would pray that the victim does not die, which defeats the purpose of the offense. Reciprocative Justice thus drives self-restrain. In this example, if Ann is judged to be intentional, Ann may bargain with each individual executioner for her life. Ann may also join a group that would help bargain for her.

I think we should change the monster for Manga 16. Evelyn: May I suggest that the monsters be food items?

3B: Currently the monster is a Dinowasp. Evelyn: I don't think we should have Zoey fire arrows at a wasp. 😖 Evelyn: I'm sorry for bringing this up so late, but it looks much worse when it is drawn. 😖
LRRH: Then can it be a pudding? Evelyn: I think I will be okay with a pudding.
Zoey: Just out of curiosity, what were you thinking so far when I used barrage? XD Evelyn: I don't know. I think I just think in terms of hitpoints. 😖 3B: Any verdict? Zoey: I don't want anything that Evelyn doesn't want. XD
3B: On Page 2, Evelyn is casting Time Out. Does that still stand?
Evelyn: Yes, I am still casting Time Out because I need to know why we are firing at the pudding. Zoey: Is it cannon that pudding monsters don't feel pain? XD Evelyn: I hope so. 😖 But I still need to know why we are pulling it to destroy it.
3B: Should that discussion be part of the manga or should we settle it first? Evelyn: I think we need to explain to the reader the purpose of the dungeon, so I think we can discuss a little bit. 3B: But do you want to continue the story in the context that you did not know why Red pulled? Evelyn: I don't know yet. 😖 LRRH: I think it is more genuine if we act based on what we show on the manga. Evelyn: Yes. 3B: Okay. Let me change the monster to pudding first. Evelyn: Thank you.
🕰️ [10:29 PM] 🕰️
3B: Okay. I changed it to a pudding.
Evelyn: I think page 3 can have a monster card showing where it is from and what it had done. 3B: Are we using Pudding as a pudding, or as TVP FAQ 5? Evelyn: I would prefer starting with a simpler example to introduce the dungeon to the reader.
3B: In the directory, Pudding represents slippery slope. 3B: "Asserting that if we allow A to happen, then Z will consequently happen too, therefore A should not happen." 3B: I need an example. Zoey: Our last example was from the Captain StarTree thread. "Extended ownership would minimize access to the world."
LRRH: We could still do TVP, because it says for the world to be peaceful, the world's resources must be globally managed. Evelyn: I think I am against using others as an example. LRRH: I think that using real examples help people recognize that the fallacies are happening around them. Ledia: I agree with Red on that one. Ledia: Allowing extended ownership may reduce access to the world. Ledia: But I also think that we should not start with pinpointing a specific philosophy or group. Because it would be strange for the reader.
3B: Okay, so on page 3, I can have a pudding say, "If you divide the world and give each person a share, then the world will turn into a prison! Therefore, no one shall have a share of the world for the world to be shared!" Zoey: It is too wordy. XD 3B: Okay I trimmed it a little. 3B: To transit to the next page, I want to leave some guidance for the reader on how to tell whether a statement is slippery slope. Any suggestion? LRRH: I think the key point of it being a slippery slope is that it asserts what will happen without deducing. If it shows the deduction then it is not slippery slope. LRRH: If it fails to account or eliminate other possibilities, then it is slippery slope. 3B: I think it is easier to show the second way. You can show a statement is slippery slope if you show another probable and meaningfully different result that the speaker ignores.
Ledia: I think the weakpoint should have the world "more" probable. If the alternative proposed is less likely, then overall it is still moot to point out the alternative. Zoey: Then which consequence is more likely? Will more people not share if they have a share? If you don't force people to share, will they share their share?

Wyvern Island

Looking at Chapter 16 Page 2, I feel that I am at a huge disadvantage XD Zoey: I already have my weapon drawn because Red was supposed to pull a monster. Zoey: Not a cute pudding that we might end up befriending. XD

Evelyn: I'm sorry. 😖
3B: Do you want to do something else?
Zoey: I talk to Evelyn and here is a summary. Zoey: Originally, the Logfall Dungeon is supposed to have monsters that represent fallacies. We the training party is supposed to spot them and swiftly defeat them. Zoey: The skills and weapons we use to defeat them are supposed to be mnemonics of the corresponding action needed to defeat them in real life. Zoey: Next is the complication that I'll let Evelyn speak for herself.
Evelyn: According to reciprocative justice, we are not supposed to use lethal forces against monsters unless they make lethal offenses.
Evelyn: So for Zoey to fire an arrow at them, we would have to imagine something horrible that the monster is trying to do or have done. Evelyn: I don't want that. 🙏
Evelyn: Since peacemaking is mostly not about such life and death situation, maybe we should tone down the conflict in the training.
Evelyn: Maybe we don't need to represent empathetic communication skills as lethal combat skills.
Evelyn: Imagine the "monster" is just someone passing a flyer with their beliefs. We wouldn't respond by drawing weapons at them.
Evelyn: There is a whole category of interaction that is missing in the quest.
Evelyn: So I thought, maybe the objective of the LogFall Quest should be we go as a party of peacemakers, we listen to what people say and look for conflicts that already exist, then we try to make the situation more peaceful.
Evelyn: It would be a quest where we spot common grounds and finds ways to reconcile and move forward.
Tanya: Chapter 16 does not yet have an updated charter. Tanya: I propose updating the charter according to Evelyn's vision if the other players don't object. Her overall vision of understanding and reconciliation are within resolution methods for logical fallacies.
Zoey: I am somewhat okay with this plan, but if you remove the action component, the manga would just be people talking to each other on every page. It would be boring. XD Evelyn: I don't know what to say to that. 😖
Ledia: I think... why don't I be the trainer and attack the party? I say something, and if it takes you too long to decide whether I used a logical fallacy, then you lose hitpoint. Zoey: I'm okay with that XD Evelyn: I think I am okay with that also, as long as we aren't the one starting the attack. Zoey: So are you okay with me firing arrows at Ledia, but not at the pudding? Evelyn: I am okay with you firing at Ledia because she is a volunteer. The pudding is innocent. 😅
3B: Am I supposed to include this discussion in the manga...? Zoey: I seriously don't know. The context is changing too much from one page to another. XD Tanya: The monster card might not be relevant, so Page 3 might need to be re-drafted. Evelyn: I'm sorry. 😖 3B: I think it is good that we are trying to be constructive.
LRRH: I think we should update the charter. I don't understand what we are doing. Tanya: @StarTree please help us. StarTree: The template for the new Charter 16 is here! 202210282241 | Charter 16 @Dungeon Evelyn: Okay. I added something.
LRRH: I think we need a plan to avoid having 3B draw the wrong thing.
Ledia: I think it would be okay if the prompt is clear. If we allow the peacemaker trainees to TPK, then there is less planning necessary. Zoey: Why isn't Ledia on our side? XD
3B: I am more motivated to draw something that is current, so that we could look at it as we consider what to do next. 3B: As opposed to me just drawing from a set script. Tanya: Then we need to pick a prompt. 3B: Hold on. I think it is worth spending Page 3 on the transition where Evelyn calls Time Out and introduce our internal conflict and design of the manga. Zoey: Can you really fit that on one page? XD 3B: Maybe like this? Zoey: 3B is a genius. XD 3B: I did skip a lot of the conversation, but kept that there was a dispute about the quest and a change. Zoey: I'm okay with that. I'm okay with Ledia deciding the prompt for Page 4. Try and TPK us. XD Ledia: Hmm... I'll have to consider what dress to go with it. Zoey: XD Evelyn thanks all for being open to the last minute changes.

Manga-ize RPG peacemaking quests resolving real life conflicts. 20221028
👑 Quest Goal

Promote peace by creating a manga of a peacemaking RPG party resolving real life conflicts.
⚔️ Context

In the Panarcadia World, there are dungeons for peacemaker training. The training party will scout for confclits, then use peacemaking skill to resolve them. While being attacked in RPG style.
Taking too long to resolve a conflict will cause the party to be KO'ed. This is for training the peacemakers to have good judgement on whether they have the ability to engage and resolve the conflict at a good pace.
🌳 Skill Tree

Scouting


⭐ Identify message core

⭐ Identify victim

Prioritizing


⭐ Judge actionability

⭐ Define objective

Preparation


⭐ Fact gathering

⭐ Response planning

Resolving


⭐ Approach a conflict

⭐ Depolarize

📯 Rules of Engagement

This section is a guideline (work in progress) on whether to engage in a discussion for the purpose of peacemaking in different types of situations.
Category 1: Conflict with Victim

This is when someone is actively hurting someone else who is present. An example is when a person is being harrassed online.
Category 2: Attack with Victim Absent

This is when someone is attacking another person or a group of people, but the targetted person or group is not present. Examples includes false advertisement.
Category 3: Victimless Expression

This is when someone talks about their beliefs without attacking others.
🏹 Style Guide

Each encounter should start with peacemaker seeking to understand the conflict instead of following a habit of "attacking monsters"
To avoid summoning creatures for the training, the peacemaker trainees will attack the peacemaker trainer, who poses the challenge questions that the peacemakers must respond, or lose hitpoint.
When the trainee part is knocked out, the trainees are supposed to study and look for better responses.

Wyvern Island

The original purpose of the dungeon is for you to stop yourself from using logical fallacies, so that you could protect yourself from drawing wrong conclusions. Ledia: If you aim to scout then resolve conflicts, you would need additional skills such as identifying the core value of a message, even when it is encased in layers of fallacies in the attempt to spread the messaage. Ledia: So let's start with an exercise of identifying the core, of dragons.

Ledia: @3B, since we are at Wyvern Island, I think it would be fitting for Ledia to cosplay as a dragon tamer. Ledia: The context would be on Wyvern Island, there are dragons routinely fighting each other, and peacemakers make peace among them so they can be friends.
3B: I understand, but for the flow of the manga, I'll need either an overall of the quest, a skill tree, or a dragon we are looking at.
Tanya: Let's first chart the skill tree at the charter node. 202210282241|Charter 16
Ledia: I categorized them into three groups: Scouting, Prioritizing, and Resolving. Ledia: We start with Scouting, where we identify the core value of a message. Identifying that will also help us in resolving. 3B: Since that skill tree is small, I think there is enough space to start the prompt on the same page. Ledia: Does the plot have to move so fast? Can't I have a whole page where I just show up? 3B: Could you show up with a dragon carrying a message? Ledia: Fair enough.
Ledia: I'll use this as the training message: "Any venture towards a better system is doomed until you tackle the root problem of short-term individualism and toxic belief that self-interest is good for all. Education and gradual cultural shift are the only ways to correct these things. Until then, your 'system' won't work."
Zoey: Is that all that can fit on a page? Should we discuss it further now or wait? 3B: Please wait... Zoey: I hope that I don't forget my line. XD
3B: Sorry for the wait. There is no room left in page 4 for responses. Please read the draft for now and think about the prompt Ledia left us. Evelyn: I think this is a good draft. The prompt is clear for me to form an answer. Zoey: I kind of look forward to the next page. XD 3B: Please wait for me to draw Page 4 first. When I am too far behind from the discussion, it makes me feel stressed. Zoey: Understood. 👍 Evelyn thanks 3B for drawing. 3B thanks all for the manga content.

Black: 5(x3y3)2 = 80000 44: The student is expected to know 23 and 103 so they can decompose? 44: I'm also having hard time trying to explain the bottom line to a 3rd grader... other than try and error? Black: I don't like this kind of math problem at this stage. I don't know what the student is supposed to learn from it. 44: Exactly... they need algebra as the tool, but without knowing the tool, I don't know how they can calculate it... other than learning algebra... Black: Maybe when they try to solve it and don't give up, you can learn something from when they explain their thoughts. 44: I think they just don't have any idea to start with tbh... It's like showing me Spanish and ask me to translate... I have no idea... 😜 44: Just like if you give me a geometry problem now, I wouldn't know how to start since I already forgot all the cos/sin/tan relationship... 😔 44: Other than the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 😆 Black: What did we learn in 3rd grade? 44: I didn't learn much tbh 🤣 I think multiplication?

Zoey: It is too wordy. XD Zoey: can the example message be shorter? 3B: But that is the actual Tweet word for word.
Evelyn: I think I can simplify our text a little bit. 3B: Thank you.
Ledia: Who wants to go first? The prompt is "What part of this message do you understand and agree?"
Evelyn: I think the speaker wants to make the world better by cultural shift through education. Evelyn receives
Zoey: Strictly speaking, the message didn't suggest that the speaker is trying to do anything. It is just expressing an opinion that certain approaches don't work. Evelyn: I'm sorry! I think you are right and I was assuming something that wasn't in the message. 😅
Zoey: I think the core message is an expression of an opinion. It is presented as a principle. But I already disagree and can show why I disagree. Zoey: What if you understand but don't agree? XD
Ledia: Here is a hint: The part that you agree doesn't need to be what the speaker is trying to say. It can be something more fundamental. Ledia receives
Zoey: You mean, I could agree that "Education and cultural shift are helpful in making the world better" ? Ledia: Yes. Zoey: I'm not getting Arcacia Award. XD
Ledia: How are we doing on paging? 3B: I haven't started yet. Ledia: Can I get @LRRH to respond?
LRRH: I agree that sometimes changes happen easier in a certain order.
Ledia: After finding shared value, if you want to disagree with something, first stating what you agree on helps others see you as a helper.
Ledia: What would you like to do next? Try more messages, try writing a message that is less controversial, or go back to Step 1 on scouting and deciding what to engage? Zoey: While we are at this message, can we talk about the part we disagree? 3B: I think that for the story, it will flow well if we continue with what we disagree. Then we can naturally discuss how to disagree without hurting people. 3B: Could we hold on to that thought while I draft Page 5, and possibly Page 6? Zoey: 👍 3B thanks all for the manga content.

This is for Manga Chapter 16 Page 5 Draft.

3B: The content from the last discussion can all "fit on one page." However, if I draw it out, it would really be just people talking.
3B: Instead of drawing the party talking to each other, I want to draw what you imagine when you speak your line.
Ledia: About that, I think each "Core" can be represented by an element.
Ledia: For example, Evelyn said that she thought that the speaker was expressing their desire. I associate desire as Fire. So Evelyn thought the message has a fire core.
Zoey: I thought we were talking about what we agree with, not what the message is about.
Ledia: When you agree that education is helpful, I associate education with Earth element. Zoey: I can kind of see that, and I hope that we return to having more RPG style content, instead of just us talking. Zoey: Please build up the presentation so that we can fight some monsters. XD Ledia: No promises.
LRRH: For changes would that be a water dragon? Ledia: I see change as wind because water can be static but wind can't. Ledia receives
LRRH: When we are talking about what we agree on, are we talking about what element we have, or what the message has?... They are the same if they are shared, isn't it? Ledia: Right.
3B: I think the elemental types need to be introduced. How important are the elements? Will they be used again?
LRRH: I think they are important if we want to map the discussion back to RPG. If we can describe concepts by elemental types, they we can represent solutions as elemental gear. LRRH receives 3B: Okay. Then I will split page 5 into two pages.
Evelyn: For my visualization, may I change the element to water? I was imagining nourishment like watering the flowers. Evelyn receives
3B: So I picture a scene where Evelyn is watering flower. Is that good enough? Should it be more RPG-ish? Evelyn: Maybe instead of me watering, it could be a water spirit watering? 3B: Do you want to be able to summon water spirit? Evelyn: I think I am fine just seeing water spirits. 3B: Okay.
Zoey: For Earth element I imagine James working out. XD Zoey receives Evelyn: If you don't want to design a water spirit you could draw Natalie also. 3B: I'll consider it.
LRRH: Then for Wind core could you draw Kisa packing lunch. 3B: I don't get the association. LRRH: Kisa has air element magic. 3B: I think the reader won't understand, and I want to show that in one frame preferably. LRRH: How do you show adaptablity in one frame?
Evelyn: How about Kisa making sushi roll? It is rolled first and then cut, not the other way around. 3B: If there is space I could draw P4 doing it the other way around. Evelyn: Cute!! 3B thanks all for the ideas.

Accreditation is a solution addressing fraud and misinformation without being authoritarian, by letting the source of information accountable to the quality it declares.

Method 1

The information source opts in and get a badge for upholding a journalistic/informational standard. Fraudulent use or violation of that standard makes the source liable to damages.

Method 2

Independent organizations rank sources for their journalistic/informational competence.

Recording the Police

Q: Do people have a right to record an interaction with the police?
Natalie: In Paladinism, paladin interactions can be recorded by anyone for training and auditing. A paladin cannot act as a paladin while refusing to be recorded.

This is for Manga Chapter 16 Page 6 Draft. Thank you for waiting.

3B: Last time (Part 2) the plan was to continue with what you disagree. Evelyn: ... I need to read the message again. 😅
Zoey: As I was saying, please drive the plot toward some action. XD Evelyn: The messages are written by someone, if we know that they have a good intention, then why would we fight them?
Zoey: Couldn't you just imagine that they possessed and try to do too much, and their desire is burning them and people around them? Zoey: We are fighting their resentment, impatience, ignorance, etc. XD Zoey: And not everyone write messages with good intentions. XD Evelyn: I think I am okay with fighting forces that possess people.
Ledia: So can anyone identify something they disagree with?
Zoey: 1) Your venture is not doomed even if you focus on one thing. Because you are not the only peacemaker. Just do the right thing that you are good at. receives Zoey: I got a legit award. XD
Zoey: 2) If a system relies on being good to work, then your system is the weakest of all. Zoey: A strong system is one where even if people have "short-term individualism" and "toxic belief that self-interest is good for all", their choices would still make the world better.
Evelyn: I agree with the first point but I think the second point deals too much damage. 😅
Ledia: It is like you are trying to use barrage when the person you want to help is in the same area. Zoey: Okay. Then just keep the second part: "A strong system can harness self-interest for doing good." Evelyn: I think that is much better. 😊
Ledia: Any other disagreement?
LRRH: Have you heard the saying, "Freedom is only one generation from extinction?" LRRH receives Evelyn: It is a quote isn't it? Zoey: Ronald Reagan. Ledia: And what do you want to say with that quote?
LRRH: Culture can change quickly, and the law can help change the culture. LRRH: Good laws teaches people what is good and guides them when their judgement is biased by self-interest. LRRH: Being able to distinguish good laws from bad laws, and being able to derive good laws opens a fast track to cultural change.
Ledia: Evelyn, any disagreement?
Evelyn: I think I want to focus on making sure that our messages don't hurt people harm because this training was originally aimed at defeating our own biases. Evelyn: But I changed from the plan. So I need to be responsible.
Ledia: @3B how are we doing on paging? 3B: I think we need an item that represents the ability to tell good and bad laws apart.
Zoey: I think that would be a quest by itself. Each principle that can tell the difference can be an item. 3B: Okay.
Evelyn: I think we can go harder on ourself because we know each other's intention. But we should be more lenient toward others
Zoey: I don't get this logic. You are saying if you know that someone has good intention (us), then you can go hard on them. Then wouldn't you go just as hard on others if you assume that they also have good intentions? Evelyn: ...
Ledia: You can't assume people who have good intention can take criticism. Ledia: When you attack a demon possessing a person, the person could try to protect the demon. You need to debuff. Zoey: Isn't that what we just did? We showed that we are not bad people by telling them something we agree with.
LRRH: How do you know if you have done enough debuff?
Evelyn: On one end, if they ask for help then there is enough debuff. Evelyn: But they start at the other end when they are trying to promote their message.
Ledia: I think you can tell from a change in tone. For example when they change from asserting a perspective, to accepting the concept being situational, to expressing openness and curious of other solutions and perspectives. 3B: I think there is enough content for at least one page. But I want Ledia to finish this concept on what to do at each stage.
Ledia: When they are asserting their perspective, a debuff is to declare a common perspective. That's what we did. When your common perspective show situational difference, the speaker might double down on the absolute rhetorics or tone down and agree that it is situational. Ledia: Then, unless they ask for more, you wait for at least one night for their mana to recharge. People who are low in mana are vulnerable. If you keep persuing you are just asking them to be repossessed. Ledia receives Ledia: The goal is not to beat the demons for them. But to bring them to a state where they can beat their own demons. Ledia: When they have a desire to beat their own demons, then they will start asking the right questions. Zoey: I really dig Ledia's explanation. What if they don't tone down and don't change after a night? Ledia: Normally this would be a quantity over quality situation, and part of Step 1. It is generally accepted that more good can be done if you prioiritze helping those who want to be helped first. Ledia: And return to them if you exhausted the lower hanging fruits. 3B: I think there is enough content. Please wait for Page 6 draft. 3B thanks all for the content.

Sasha: This post at DeviantArt got a hit. The word "Arcacianism" was in the comments. StarTree: Done!

202211051814|◀ 2022 NOV 06 SUN 8:19 PM

This is for Manga Chapter 16 Page 6 Draft visualization.

3B: I reduced the disagreements into two main points, one from Zoey and one from Red. I want supporting examples for each visualization. Zoey: You didn't include the point where I got Arcacia Award. XD 3B: Because the word "You" in the original message could be interpreted as "someone". So replying "you are not the only peacemaker" doesn't address that someone is tackling the root problems for the overall team to succeed. Zoey: Okay. XD
3B: For Zoey's point, I think the page needs an example of harnessing people's self-interest for good.
3B: For Red's point, I need one example each for how laws and technology shifts the culture for good.
LRRH: I think the Internet and social media changes a culture much faster than education.
LRRH: On laws would be environmental and land use laws.
Evelyn: I think people would want to know specifically how the internet makes the culture better, such as letting people learn what they need for free. The internet did not create a situation where people have to pay for everything they want to learn.
LRRH: Because it only takes one person to share the information freely for its price to go down to zero. As long as the law protects free teachers, the culture of free teaching can thrive.
LRRH: In that context, the thing that needs to be tackled are authoritarian laws that try to monopolize and turn something that could be free into something that requires a fee.
3B: I imagine showing a cooking show on a screen. But that moves the plot away from RPG doesn't it? Evelyn: I suppose the computer that displays the show doesn't need to look like a computer, but something magical. 3B: Good point. I still need an example for Zoey.
Zoey: I think if you change the order and have Red goes first it would flow better. Zoey: I am imagine an adventurer party where each adventure have a different reason.
Ledia: I think what might help is contrasting before and after to show how the example makes things better. Ledia: For example, in sharing of cooking recipe, it wasn't because people didn't want to share, but that it was time consuming or costy to share. Ledia: The internet makes it more worthwhile to share. 3B: I will consider that because it might take too much space.
3B: I think I have a better picture of what to draw now. Please wait for the graphical draft. 3B thanks all for the ideas.

Self-Defense is part of self-care in autonomy. The following lists what are allowed and what would violate principle of self-defense as applied to Stewardism.
⭐ Last reasonable moment to act

This is a concept in Self-Defense where a potential victim may act preemptively if that is their last reasonable moment to act to prevent harm.
⭐ Reacting to a declaration of hostility

This is a concept in Self-Defense where the recipient of a declaration of hostility (e.g. a declaration of war, or a death threat) may act preemptively against the declarer. This is an important different compared to typical laws in restricted zones.

Concepts

Zoning James: Zoning is a concept that different zones can be defined with different weapon regulation. A person entering a zone shall follow the regulations or refrain themself from entering.
Weapon Credits Ledia: Weapon Credits is a Paladinism implementation of weapon regulation within a zone. The more credits you get from defending the zone, the more powerful weapon you are allowed to carry/use within the zone.
Common Zone Tanya: A common zone is an unclaimed area, such as that in Gaia Credits, where carrying of weapon is generally allowed, but not the use of weapons outside of self-defense. The common zone is not a zone for testing zone. Weapon testing needs to be done in claimed zone where the tester has authority and diligence of containing the damage.

[202211130845]

202211130845|Red Pulled
202211062019|◀ 2022 NOV 13 SUN 8:45 AM
Wyvern Island

This is not an emergency. Red pulled for the text version of @Dungeon.

Zoey: I thought we are following 3B's pace and not making any move. XD
LRRH: Manga pace is too slow. Zoey: I think Red lacks patience. XD Ledia: I would see that as a fire core.
Tanya: I think we should follow a general flow: Conflict identification, Preparation, Deployment. Tanya: Red has been pulling while skipping the first two phases. Ledia: @StarTree, please add preparation in charter 16 Skill Tree StarTree: Done!
Tanya: I think it would be helpful if we list and compare our general flow specific to Magic Bakery. Tanya: The skill tree is beneficial for others but we need a flow that targets specifically what we should do since Red would just pull things. Tanya: Specifically, we are wasting a lot of power when Red posts on Twitter without a link from the blog. Tanya: Ideally, everything that Red posts at Twitter should be a leaf node.
LRRH: Twitter might be going down. Tanya: Then we should copy the content to the blog.
LRRH: I have just replied that the concept of "we have a responsibility to help" is an attack to neutral. LRRH: Should that go to honorism or autonomy node? Tanya: I think Honorism. But more importantly, it should simply be somewhere, we could rearrange them later. Sasha: It could go to a cache node, or your Cute is Justice node. LRRH: ... The message wasn't really cute. Sasha: Then you don't get the EXP for leveling up Cute is Justice. LRRH: For now please add to Honorism node first. StarTree: Added! 202207202118|Honorism
{"cmd":"img","src":"https://github.com/MagicBakery/Images/blob/main/20221113-HelpingIsChoice.png?raw=true"}
Evelyn: I like the idea of showing grammarly tone rating.
Fina: It is a little early in the month, but if you could complete the outline of the "flow" for @Dungeon, I would nominate @Dungeon for S rank.
Tanya: @StarTree please make a section at @Dungeon Charter and I will fill it up with a draft. Ledia: Wouldn't that be the same as the Skill Tree section? Tanya: I think they are different because I want to talk about specifically what to do for the blog. Ledia: I think you can do that using bubbles.
Ivy: When a skill gets enough content, it should be its own node. The content of Charter 16 can be specific to the blog. Ivy: I mean the default content of Charter 16 can be about how the game is run at Magic Bakery. Tanya: I understand, and we can rearrange and merge the content as needed later. For now please make a section for the flow draft. StarTree: A "Quest Flow" section is now added!
Tanya: I added the flow section. I think we should fill it with what Red pulled so we can triage. Ledia: I like this organization. LRRH: I am adding things to the lists. Little Red Riding Hood added 13 items to the lists.
Zoey: This is equivalent to saying Red pulled 13 monsters with no backup. XD Zoey: Pulling means you actually responded instead of just noting to the guild that they exist. XD
Ivy: I think this type of operational content, these lists, should not be in the Charter but in the quest node. Tanya: I see. @StarTree please move that section to Logfall Quest node. StarTree: Done! 202207161025|Log Fall dungeon
Ledia: I think each step can be its own expanded section. Especially the asset list. Ivy: The Monsters section of that node is still using the old links. Tanya: @StarTree, please upgrade all the Monsters links to new style. StarTree: Done~~! Tanya: Please split Step 2 Response Planning as its own scroll. "Staging Area"
Tanya: I propose that we should focus on clearing the content in the Staging Area. When the staging area is clear, we pull from the Sightings board Tanya: So we start with "Religion vs Philosophy" at the Staging Area. Tanya: As I understand, that is for creating a node that defines the difference between a religion and a philosophy.
LRRH: The point I wanted to make is that a religion is something a person treats as truth despite counter evidence. It is related to identifying indoctrination.
Tanya: Let's create the node and clear it. StarTree: Node is added! 202211131155|Religionism LRRH: I added notes.
Fina: Can we make a judgement that religionism is unstable as a concept? Fina: I would define religionism to be the belief that adhering to, and not questioning, a set of belief is good. Tanya: I think yes. In the same node.
Tanya: Let's try deploying a response. To deploy a response, we should declare the purpose of the response (who it promotes peacemaking), craft the response, and deliver the response.
LRRH: I think it is worth responding because this is a case with a conflict where sharing definition can improve communication. LRRH: And the OP asked for a responses.
Evelyn: I think if you would respond with a link to the node, the content of the node needs to include an explanation of the grading rubric. Evelyn: I don't think people would understand why "If religionism includes beliefs that genocide is good, then it is extinction rank."
Fina: The concept of the rating is about the potential threat. For example, a bomb can blow up. We know it won't blow up if you don't light the fuse. But you would still rate the bomb as "explosive", without making a prediction that it will explode.
Ledia: The current definition of Unstable philosophies is in its ability to drive the world toward conflicts and extinction. So the question is "Does Religonism have the ability to drive the world toward extinction?" Tanya: Yes. Evelyn: I think I understand now, but I think we need a node just to explain the rating so that we can link to it whenever something rated negatively. Tanya: @StarTree please make a node "Hazard Rating" as a solution type. LRRH: In that rating definition, wouldn't Trust also be extinction grade? Tanya: Let's make the Hazard Rating" node first. StarTree: Done! 202211131325|Hazard Rating
LRRH: So I composed a response. How do you want to review it? Tanya: I think you can just post it on this thread. Ledia: Shouldn't the content be on the Hazard Rating node? Tanya: Yes that would be better.
Evelyn: I think the example of an dishonorable response for that node is out of place. Evelyn: I think if you want to talk about honorism, you would need to first get an audience that has opt-ed in. LRRH: Updated. Evelyn: I think what we have now is good enough. Ledia: I think we need to judge whether that post is merely empowering, or "an attack with victim absent." Evelyn: I think it is not an attack when it is definitional without using derogatory terms. Ledia: That standard should be added to the Deployment section.
🕰️ [5:32 PM] 🕰️
LRRH: Can we post about religionism? Now we have a link that explains the rating? LRRH: The reason of posting is that someone asked about whether atheism is a religion. LRRH: And sharing definition is a type of solution. Evelyn: I think that type of respond is more disturbing the helping. 😅 LRRH: Why? Evelyn: I think it is because the original tweeter already has enough responses, if we talk about this it would be somewhat out of propotion since the distinction does not warrant someone's attention. 😅 LRRH: I changed the wording to draw attention on how to respond. Tanya: I think this can be added as a check. "Confirm that key terms are defined." LRRH: Added. Evelyn: I think the current response is okay. It is not attacking anything in particular. LRRH: Posted.
Ledia: I think it would be interesting to keep the best response in the Deployment section as a reference. Tanya: For now let's keep all responses. The @Dungeon Staging Area is now cleared.
Tanya: Let's triage the sighting board.
Evelyn: I think praying without words or praying in general is a cleric skill. Tanya: Let's clear that. 202211131946|Restore
LRRH: To respond to the rest in the sighting, I I think we need a node for TVP FAQ 125. Tanya: I promoted some sightings to staging.
Zoey: I'll make the Hierarchy node for @Seed. 202211132027|Hierarchy Chapter 16 is nominated for S Rank. Tanya thanks all for their contributions.
A Religion is a set of beliefs that a person considers to be true in the absence of evidence or despite the presence of counterevidence.
Definition

Religion is...


✔️ "I believe this is true despite contradicting evidence"
✔️ "I believe this is true despite the lack of supporting evidence"

Religion is not...


❌ "I look for an explanation free of contradictions"
❌ "I don't know if this is true, but this is the best explanation so far."
Religion and Theism

In this definition, a set of concept can be treated as a religion even when it does not involve believing in a god. Implications:
⭐ Atheism is the lack of believe in the existence of a god. Atheism is not a religion.
⭐ An atheist can treat some principles as a religion.
Is Atheism a Religion?

Answering this question requires defining atheism. My definition is: Atheism is a lack of belief in any god. With this definition, atheism is a form of religion for people who close themselves to counterevidence, but not for people who are open to counterevidence but have not seen such evidence to believe there is a god.

Treating Atheism as a Religion


"There is no god. Counterevidence must be flawed."

Not treating Atheism as a Religion


"I don't have any evidence of a god. All counterevidence so far are flawed."
Is atheism a religion?

Religion vs Religionism

Religionism is the belief that adhering to and not questioning or challenging a set of belief is good. Being reglious and being an religionist do not imply each other.

Religionism is...


✔️ "It is good to believe in something without question it."

Religionism is not...


❌ "I believe in something, but that is my choice."

Religious but not Religionist


A person can have religious beliefs without subscribing to religionism. For example, a person could say, "I believe in a god but that doesn't make me a better person than those who do not."

Not Religious, but is a Religionist


A person can subscribe to religionism without believing in a religion. "Empirically speaking, people who have religious beliefs are better, so as far as the evidence support, I conclude that having a religion is better. But I personally don't have a religion."
🧩 Component Rating

Religionism includes people who believe in genocide and destruction of the world. Therefore Religionism, by itself, qualifies as Extinction rank. This rating does not imply that every religion is Extinction rank.

Solution

Hazard Rating

202211131325|PIN 202211131325 🍄
Inform people of potential harm to facilitate informed decision.
Hazard Rating as a solution type informs people of the ingredients and potential harm of an object to allow people to make informed decisions. LRRH: Ideologies can be given a Hazard Rating similar to those used in the transportation of dangerous things. By understanding the meaning of such a rating, you could remove the hazardous part of your concept.
Hazard Labels are not Predictions

In Transportation


A thing is labeled as a hazard for its potential to cause harm, not as a prediction that it will. For example, a bomb is labeled as an "explosive". That label does not imply that the labeled bomb will explode within its lifespan.

In Ideology


Ideologies can be rated on whether it allows or promotes conflicts and extinction. Similar to transportation labels, an ideology that is labeled "Extinction grade" does not mean that everyone who knows the concept will want to destroy humanity.
Hazard Rating of Concepts

Hazard rating of philosophical concepts describe whether the believers of such concept can drive the world toward conflicts.

Complete Extinction


💣 "Humanity is a plague and shall be wiped out."
💣 "We shall follow orders regardless what the order is."
💣 "We shall trust each other without cross checking for errors."

Partial Extinction


💣 "People who do not believe in my religion shall be wiped out."
💣 "The majority shall make decisions including wiping out the minorities."

Conflict Inducing


⚔️ "My beliefs are correct regardless of evidence."
⚔️ "The majority shall make the decision, but not including wiping out a minority."
⚔️ "Science and math shall decide what people do."
Defusing Hazardous Concepts

A general method of reducing the hazardous concept is to get ride of the hazardous part by being more specific about the concept.

Statement A

"Science and math shall decide how people live."
The statement above is Conflict Inducing because it violates autonomy. A statement that does not violate autonomy would be this:

Statement B

"Science and math can be used to calculate the extent of viotion among people."
Statement B and Statement A do not share the same meaning. Statement is Conflict Resolving. The part in Statament A that leads to conflict is intentionally removed.
Handling Hazardous Concepts

Take the following for example:

Original Concept

"Humanity shall let an AI decide humanity's fate and not question the AI's decisions." LRRH: This ideology is rated extinction grade because if humanity actually believes in this and the AI decides humanity is a plague, extinction can happen. Note that a bomb doesn't need to be a ticking time-bomb to be labeled as an explosive.
The following responses do not address the hazard:

Dismissal / Guarantee


❌ "I don't believe that it will happen."
❌ "I guarantee that it won't happen."

Dismissing Responsibility


❌ "I have no responsibility of warning people of potential or hypothetical harm of my design."
Instead, you could address a hazard by:

Option 1

Remove the hazardous part so that it is safe as it spreads.
✔️ "I want to make AIs that people can choose to manage their resources. Each subscriber may disconnect and resume manual control of their share."

Option 2

Accept that it is hazardous and warn others as you discuss it and spreads the concept.
✔️ "My design has no emergency stop or opt-out mechanism. User be warned."

Remind yourself of your goals and values when you are lost.
Restore is a cleric skill that reminds a person of their goals and values. It is useful when one feels lost. Restore can be prepared by taking the time to write down your values, goals, and plans, so that when you feel lost you have a reference to continue.

202211132027|👑 Hierarchy {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202211132027","music":""}

Hierarchy as a solution type has many meanings, including a person organizing tasks, and a society organizing access and decision power. A social system has a hierarchy when there are rules forbidding a person's access to their fair share.

Examples of Social Systems with Hierarchy


202209211022|🗳️ Direct Democracy
Resource Based Economy

Technocracy

👑 Social Hierarchy of Authority

A social hierarchy based on authority is one where people at the top of the hierarchy has the most decision power, and those at the bottom have the least. The people at a upper level of the hirarchy has the authority to order those below to act.

Authoritarian Hierarchy is...


✔️ People in upper hierarchy may order those below
✔️ People in upper hierarchy may limit the resource those below may get.

Authoritarian Hierarchy is not...


❌ A group of people decide collectively what they would do.
❌ A group of people defending their own rights against violators among them.
👑 Scientific Authoritarian Social Hierarchy

A scientific authoritarian hierarchy is a societal hierachy where people with more scientifc knowledge are given more decision power. A society being authoritarian does not imply that people cannot opt-out.

Scientific Authoritarianism is...


✔️ Scientists have more rights to make societal decisions
✔️ Scientists are given more rights to decide what to do with natural resources

Scientific Authoritarianism is not...


❌ Everyone has a right to decide what to do for themself
❌ Everyone has equal share and rights to manage resource sustainably

Critical Reading

TVP FAQ 125

202211151011|PIN 202211151011
FAQ: 125
[125] What about people who don't want to participate in a resource-based economy?

2020-03-15


If a nation initially refused to join the world community we feel that in time, given the opportunity to look at our system and compare it with their own, they would come around. There would be no pressure, no arm twisting, no torture and no military force. We do not envision forcing our values upon people.

If people do not identify with The Venus Project, they will not join us. They will have their independence and can choose another kind of lifestyle. We believe that eventually most people will join with The Venus Project and unify the world toward a common goal, but it cannot be forced.
🐣 Can people opt-out?

2022-11-15


In Stewardism/Hospitalianism/Quest Society/Gaia Society, there are rules that allow people to opt-out of a society. Does RBE have rules about that? I have asked this question of people who claim to understand RBE but their replies were either no or they could not give an answer. So here is the question:
"If the world is already being managed according to your philosophy, can a person born within your managed world opt-out? If so, what do they get for their independence?"
Gaia Society

Your ownership of your share is on-going. Your resource manager is an agent of your choice if you choose to appoint one. You may also manage your share by yourself for your independence.
Resource-Based Economy

"This is just a hypothetical question. No one will want to opt-out of RBE."
"Stop asking the same question. We have answered it many times. You clearly don't understand what RBE is. You need to read more."
Techno Authoritarianism

If you want independence, then don't join. Once you join, there is no way to opt-out of the resource/land we got from you because we believe that the option to opt-out will lead to wars.
Note that none of the three responses contradict the literal meaning of FAQ 125. If the FAQ was written for Gaia Society, the FAQ can simply be amended to highlight people may opt-out. However, since Gaia Society was designed to uphold freedom of association, it has a more clear answer:
[125] What about people who don't want to participate in a Gaia Society?

Gaia Society is not a type of society where you need to "opt-in" because it is comprised of resource management agents of your choice to manage your share of the world.

You may manage your share by yourself, you may use any management applications, and you may join any management community. A management community that does not let you opt-out and return control of your share to you is considered a violator of your rights.
⚠️ Potential Obfuscation

2022-11-15


Since the FAQ response could equally apply to Techno Authoritarianism where a person's rights would be violated (in particular, freedom of association, autonomy), TVP FAQ 125 is at risk of being seen as an indoctrinative response, or RBE itself is at risk of being a philosophy of indoctrination.

Suggested Revision

Revise TVP FAQ 125 to clarify that people who have already joined may opt-out and be given their fair share of resources and automation for their independence.

This is for TVP FAQ 125 discussion and deployment.

LRRH: Previously each FAQ was part of the RBE node, but the content is huge so I think it is better to have a node for each FAQ. LRRH: The purpose of this read through is for Anti-Indoctrination training and resolution techniques.
Zoey: I think we need a wayback link. LRRH: Okay.
LRRH: So, can I post it? Evelyn: I think it is unfortunate but I find the page informative and clear. I hope the issue will be clarified if you post it. LRRH: 💟 Evelyn thanks Red for trying very hard to bring attention to something that could be important. Little Red Riding Hood thanks all and Tanya for the three colum comparison format back in the days when Charter 16 was @Concept.
Tanya: I think the new format for 125 is much better. In the old format, we didn't quote the entire FAQ, it was inconvenient. Tanya: I like how the new format let the reader just read the FAQ by itself. LRRH: 💟

Place Level is a gamification concept of representing each section of the blog as a location in the game world, and allowing it to level up as its content becomes more informative and pretty. LRRH: Origiinally, it was part of the game where our GM Vivi would select which city with low Place Level to attack, and the guild would defend that city by upgrading its blog content.

2021-12-24 ish:


Place Level is used by the game to determine whether an invasion at a place would succeed. If the place's level is higher than or equal to that of the invasion force at the end of the day, the invasion fails. When used correctly, this game mechanism is used by the GM to target a place for upgrade (i.e. The Villain Player declares they would attack a certain town, then the Hero Players can roleplay defending the town by upgrading its level. If they succeed, the town is defended.)
But that mechanism was deemed too stressful because people might spend time updating the content when there are more important things to do in real life. Therefore now Place Level serves as a guide for sharing and recognizing ideas that would make a section informative and pretty.
📌 Purpose

A chapter location must be related to peacemaking for it to get any EXP. The charter is our means to declare the purpose of a chapter.

✅ Relevant charter


20221219

The charter gets 1 EXP for being relevant to one of the EPIC categories of peacemaking.
202207291003|⭐ EPIC

✅ Administrative Info


The chapter gets 1 EXP for having chapter code number, current chapter name, and date the charter was created or last updated.

📌 Monthly Goal


The chapter gets 1 EXP for having a monthly or shorter-term goal.
🗃️ Charters
📌 Navigation

A chapter gets points for being easy to navigate to help a viewer find useful content. Here are some features that worth a point.

📌 Single-click teleport


20221210

From the teleport side menu, a viewer can reach the place node by a single click. (CH27) 202212100957|💬

✅ Place Node

🏆 Monthly Ranking

We track how many times a chapter is updated per month to help identify if a chapter is left behind. Start at unranked, a chapter ranks up depending on the difficulty and number of quests completed. The ranking of a chapter is the highest rank of quest completed followed by the number of quests completed.
Tanya's Quest Ranking Scale

202303292149|~ 2023-04-01 ~


Rank S: Creation of deployed work that helps a first-time visitor more than confuses them. This category includes Arcacianism promotion content, but only if it helps.
Rank A: Expansion to a new area of content that is relevant to the mission of the chapter.
Rank B: Adding content to an existing area that is chapter-relevant.
Rank C: Implementing new layout or format for the chapter, reorganize or cleaning up areas or contents.
Rank D: Applying existing layout or code update and other small cosmetic changes to the chapter.
Effort: When a quest is done many times, it can be ranked up. As starter, the amount of rank up is based on the square root. If you complete the same quest 4 times, it can be ranked up once. If it has been done 9 times, it can be ranked up twice. 16 times, it can be ranked up three times. A Rank D quest done 25 times can be logged as a Rank S quest even when it doesn't satisfy the normal meaning of a Rank S quest.

Better Self

Arcacian Award

Arcacian Award is a hug from your better self and a way to let your better self help you.
202211162144|PIN 202211162144
Arcacian Award is a hug from your better self Arcacia: or me 💗! It is described as a feeling of calmness and breeze that can cover the whole body. It can happen intentionally, unintentionally, and often happens when one sings, when it might comes with tears.
💗 What is Arcacian Award like?

Soul Resonance


It is like opening a channel to one's soul.

Recess


It is like letting the dog out.

Easy Mode


I use it when I want something to be easy.

Presence


I think it represents presence, not truth.

Soothing


It might also have a healing effect. Might.

Love


It is an accepting and supportive feeling. 🎨
💗 How do you get an Arcacian Award?

Positive thoughts


It often comes when you seek positive and peaceful ideas.

Relaxation


I think it might come when you are relaxed. I think the first time I felt it, it simply happened by itself.

What is its name?


What is the actual name or scientific name of this feeling? Ivy: It is Frisson. You can search for Self-induce Frisson.
💗 Arcacian Call

Arcacian Call is a full spectrum skill for all six peacemaker archetypes. It boosts alertness, creativity and goodwill while dispeling negative feelings and empowers you to do something helpful to yourself and others. It is the general channelling of mana for your better self to cast its magic! LRRH: Arcacian Award refers to the feeling and the 3 points we get for scoring. The name of the skill itself at Magic Bakery is Arcacian Call. You may call it anything that resonantes with your better self. Evelyn: It is not necessarily to have a name for it as the channel can be open at-will instantly. There is no spell to memorize or spell casting ritual. It is about being in a state of mind of opening up to the better self.

Alchemist


The feeling often comes with a eureka moment and points to path of the solution. It is like both your conscious self and your subconsious self are tackling the problem at the same time. Black: The response from your subconscious comes with that feeling.

Cleric


When I don't know what to say, I search myself until I get a response that has a strong resoance, which would be the most loving and healing course of action.

Herald


Arcacian Call is the skill of opening the channel to assign a task for Arcacia. It is also the feeling when Arcacia calls back and wants you to do something. LRRH: Arcacian Call is free. You can stay on the line as long as you want. LRRH: If there is something difficult and you are too tired and want to give up, instead of "just giving up", you can make the call and send it to Arcacia. LRRH: It is also an alarm clock if you want to get up early.

Magician


It is a source of creativity that gives you wacky ideas that you can't wait to try and share.

Oracle


It should be stressed that the response that comes with that feeling is not necessarily "the truth". Tanya: But it is a response that draws deep into ones commitments, which a person might temproarily forget, and accounts for information and feelings that could be in the blindspot of a person's conscious mind. By opening the channel, you are using the full capacity of what your mind is capable of.

Paladin


It can be used to boost alertness, courage, and will power. It gives second and third wind when you want to go the extra mile.

The hit result went back down to 9 and 19 if you expand it. Sasha: For the others we didn't check what they were if we included "similar results", so the official hit count it 9.

Sasha: By the way, who changed the teleport links? I like how I can now right click and open a in new tab. StarTree: It was Zoey! Sasha gives Kudos to Zoey.
Evelyn: At the Arcacianism Promotion quest page, can we tally how many hits each method give us?
Sasha: That's a great idea! @StarTree please do it.
StarTree: Youtube:3 , DeviantArt:1 , Twitter:2 , Musescore:1 , zedge:1 , Seed-of-peace:1 !
Evelyn: I want to post about connecting to one's better self. I cannot decide whether to mention "Arcacianism" because connecting to one's better self is a general skill. Evelyn: People might already have a name for it, so if we attach our name for it, it would seem imposing. Sasha: It is okay to make empowering post just for empowering people without promoting Arcacianism. Evelyn: Then I'll start making a post. Sasha thinks more youtube postings are needed.

202211230925|Multi-Rank Up Scoring
202211041942|◀ 2022 NOV 23 WED 9:25 AM
Cardinal Quest

This is a routine check of Cardinal Quest status. This is not an emergency.

StarTree: There are 8 open quests, 427 quest hours, 133 side quests, and 14 prep quests! StarTree: StarTree cleared 5 prep quests related to recognitions! Tanya: Let's try getting the number down to 7.
Evelyn: I'll do the potion quest. Evelyn is recognized as Herbalist. Potion Quest is complete. Tanya: StarTree please roll for the remaining 8 prep quests. StarTree: Sonic attack defense upgrade! V: I'll do that. V is recognized for resistance to sonic attack. Five preparation quests remain. StarTree: StarTree cleared some that were already done!
Tanya: StarTree, we missed the soft deadline of advancing every charter rank to B by the end of 21st. Can we rank up Cardinal to B now and continue without waiting for the next day? StarTree: StarTree has no idea!
Vivi: No. That's bad for auditing. Tanya: It won't be an issue with auditing because we have a written request for the rank up in this thread. Vivi: If you do that it will promote people going from Rank U to Rank A on the same day, that means each charter quest is only updated once per month. Vivi: Normally in one sitting a person would update a few things for one rank up. If you let them rank up multiple times in one sitting, they would end up doing the same amount and ask for a rank up for each thing they complete.
Tanya: I think they would end up doing more because once they are stuck at rank A, they would want to get to Rank S. And that needs to be nominated. Tanya: I am proposing that a charter quest can rank up more than once on the same day, if there is a written log to show the amount completed would have worth one day, but the quester wants to continue.
LRRH: I think we have already seen what happens with the current system. It is quite good but it is weird that if you put in more effort on the same day you can't rank up more than once. I think we should try and see what happens with Tanya's proposal. LRRH: And I like that a thread like this is required for multiple rank up because it gives more variety to the chat. Some charters almost never have any chat content. Ledia: I think that is a compelling reason. I am for more chat on sharing what we are doing. Vivi: StarTree, how many quests are still in Rank C right now? StarTree: Not including those updated today, three! @Treasure, @Mira, and @Wish! Vivi: It will be a mess for auditing because on the calendar, when there is a checkmark on the quest, it means that it should have a higher rank the next day. Vivi: If StarTree changes the rank of @Cardinal from C to B right now and you don't finish completing rank A, StarTree could make the mistake of incrementing it to rank A because it still has the checkmark at the end of the day. Vivi: And when I look at the calendar, I would need to click on the threads and look for whethere there is a comment and approval on multi rank up. Vivi: So I propose keeping the same system unless you also propose a way so that StarTree won't make mistake and it would be easy for me to audit. In the meantime, if you do the three remaining quests, it would probably be the end of the day already so no change is needed when you continue @Cardinal. Tanya: I see. Ledia: I still like the idea that we could rank up more than once. Vivi: Your proposal needs to take care of how StarTree scores it and how I audit it. Vivi receives Ledia: Fair enough.
Evelyn: I don't really know how StarTree does the scoring and Vivi aduits it. Would you propose how it might work? Vivi: I don't want to consider it until all the Rank C charters are cleared. Evelyn: Actually I also prefer helping charters that are lagging behind first. 😅 Vivi is recognized as Auditor. StarTree: StarTree will try to make the scoring work and avoid mistakes regardless how you want! Ledia completed @Mira by upgrading the profile for Fina. Casey completed @Treasure by updating notes on maintenance.
Evelyn: @LRRH, is there something we can help for @Wish?
LRRH: Yes, I heard that someone wishes to change the monthly charter ranks tracking, so let's discuss how to make it better. Evelyn: 😊 LRRH: @StarTree could you give a brief description of how the ranking is managed now?
StarTree: At the start of each month, each chapter is set to "unranked" at the spreadsheet. StarTree: When the score is tallied at the end of each day, if a chapter has activity, then it will have one checkmark ✅ next to the chapter name. StarTree: After posting that result, the spreadsheet is updated with the new ranking of each chapter. StarTree: Therefore, when the result is posted, if a chapter has a checkmark next to it, then you shall see that its ranking increases on the next day. StarTree: An exception is when a chapter is nominated for Rank S, then its rank immediately changes to Rank S! LRRH: Why is there an exception for Rank S? StarTree: Because oftentimes a chapter is nominated on the last day of the month, if it is not changed immediately it will not be displayed since the scores reset on the 1st of each month!
Ledia: Why don't we show the current rank at the end of each day? So that when a chapter is displayed in Rank B with a checkmark, it means that the chapter advanced to Rank B today, not that it will become Rank B tomorrow. StarTree: StarTree has no problem doing that if that is what the guild wants! Ledia: Anyone has any objection? @Vivi?
Vivi: If a chapter ranks up more than once, could you use a different icon or use a checkmark per rank up? StarTree: StarTree posted what it would look like if @Cardinal has two checkmarks! Vivi: I looks a little ridiculous. Although it is understandable. Tanya: If @Cardinal ranks up twice, it would be in Rank A. The others should be in Rank B. StarTree: StarTree reposted to make it more representative! Evelyn: I think it looks fine when they are spread out. Tanya: StarTree could you post all of the chapter so we can see what it looks like? StarTree: It is done, but this is a mock up! In practice, can StarTree still only update the result only once per day? Tanya: What is the problem if you udpate it more than once? StarTree: Then at the end of the day StarTree can't tell if it has already been updated! Ledia: I'm fine with it only updating once at the end. I think the double checkmark looks fine. Tanya: Let's try this for some time first. Red updated @Guild and @Wish on multiple rank up on the same day. All chapters are at least Rank B for this month.
Tanya: Should we try double rank up for one of those quests? I propose double rank up for @Cardinal because it is the most cumbersome quest to rank up in general. Tanya: It is more efficient to do many rank up at once than to spread them to different dates. Ledia: I'll stay for @Cardinal if there is something I can do. Evelyn: I'll stay too. 😊 Tanya: StarTree roll for a prep quest please.
StarTree: This is triaged as a story quest about Valdanya tanking at Oct 10. Vladanya is retroactively recognized as a Commander and Tank. Quest site Evergale Valley is added.
StarTree: @Cardinal now has 8 open quests, 427 quest hours, 133 side quests, and 4 prep quests remaining! Tanya thanks all for answering the call.

Zoey: Let's copy over what Red replied and organize.

Evelyn: I have a proposal... Could we change all the offenses in the example to "bully" or "violent bully" to keep it abstract? Evelyn: I worry that the content would be too unpleasant. 😅 LRRH: I think that is a good point.
LRRH: What does this question mean? "How would this handle politicians\corporations causing harm to their patrons in exchange for increased profit?"
Tanya: If the patrons know the harm, then it is fair exchange. If they don't, then the offender is violating the patron autonomy, which results in two things: 1) The offender voids their corresponding autonomy. 2) The offender is liable to repay the victims damage.

Freedom of Speech is a popular but ambiguous term as it is often used with contradicting definition to defend a speaker's position. This node compares some common definitions and related terms.

In this definition, speech means expressing an opinion or disclosing information. Regardless of the content, the author shall not be subjected to censorship or physical restrains.

Allowed Speech


Discussion of all political views / Hate speech / Verbal abuse / False advertisement / Lying under oath / Forgery of documents / Counterfeiting / Identity theft

Disallowed Speech


(None)
The party presented false information has the responsibility to judge whether the information is truthful or authentic. Contracts and promises are never binding and have no legal significance. The dispenser of false information is never liable to any damage. The believer of information can only blame themself.
In this definition, speech only refers to a set of content and context, not all manners of information disclosure. The legislature might be declare by listing what is allowed or what is disallowed. The following is an example.

Allowed Speech


Discussion of all political views

Disallowed Speech


Hate speech / Verbal abuse / False advertisement / Lying under oath / Forgery of documents / Counterfeiting / Identity theft
This type of definition, while functional, it prone to misinterpretation unless the sanction list is clear. A way to avoid misunderstanding is to refer to this type of policy as "Sanctioned Speech" or "Protected Speech". Free Speech does not include harassment. https://nextdoor.com/p/pdhxnHHrNK83/c/1210692790
In this definition, speech is defined as the action of disclosing information in the same way as in Absolute Free Speech, but as a freedom it has a ranking compared to other freedoms and does not override those that have a higher rank.

Example Ranking


👑
[1] Freedom of Autonomy
[2] Freedom of Speech
With a given ranking, the illegality of an action is determined if it violates a freedom, starting from the highest ranked freedom. Using the example ranking above gives the result below.

Allowed Speech


Discussion of all political views

Disallowed Speech


Hate speech / Verbal abuse / False advertisement / Lying under oath / Forgery of documents / Counterfeiting / Identity theft
In this example, all of the speech in the disallowed section violate Freedom of Autonomy. This means that even if "Freedom of Speech" is absent from the ranking, the result would be the same, showing that the underlying principle behind the example in Type 2 is "Freedom of Autonomy". As a result, a Ranked Freedom framework allows a more concise and consistent way of defining freedom for a society.
This definition makes the term less meaningful and not analogous at different scopes. For example, when a government says that it observes freedom of speech, it means that regardless of your political view, you may still vote or run for offices. It means that you are free from consequences (i.e. being banned from voting or running). If a proponent of that definition says that "Freedom of Speech just means the government does not censor the speech, it doesn't guarantee voting right or the right to run for office." Then it begs two questions: 1) Is being banned from voting or running not also types of censorship? 2) What term do you use to refer to governments that do not censor and do not ban? The simple conclusion is not that those governments that do not ban/retaliate are offering something more than freedom of speech, but not banning/retaliating IS part of freedom of speech. Using that analogy on an interpersonal level, you as an individual person subscribes to freedom of speech values when you do not retaliate against people exercising the similar speech that a government would not ban or censor. For example, if you are an employer and you would fire any employee expressing a different political view (even in their personal life outside work), then you do not subscribe to freedom of speech (freedom of political speech). You may ask, "Why can't I employ only people with the same view?" Answer: that is part of freedom of association. When you exercise your freedom of association, it doesn't mean that you are offering freedom of speech to others.

202211241153|🏛️ Hate Speech {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202211241153","music":""}

Hate Speech is a declaration or display of hostility. Hate Speech becomes actionable when it is used to reject or expel someone who has the right to be present.
Hate Speech is a declaration or display of hostility. Hate speech becomes actionable when it is used to reject or expel someone who has the right to be present.
Concept: Hostility

Hostility includes displays that make a zone repulsive and those that serve to reject or expel rightful presence.

Hostility includes...


✔️ "You don't belong here"
✔️ "Get out"
✔️ The use of profanity or namecalling
✔️ Disrespect of cultural artifacts
✔️ Display of symbols of hostility

Hostility does not include...


❌ Expressing personal preference
❌ Discussing zoning
❌ Displaying artifacts with warning at an archive
❌ Expressing stereotypical opinion without an intention to offend
To show a lack of intention to offend, the offender can change their expression to be non-offensive when the victim tells them their expression is offensive. In general the victim should propose the non-offensive expression so that exchanges and conversations may continue.
Concept: Rightful Presence

Hate Speech becomes actionable in situations where the hostility is displayed in public, or in private if the viewer did not opt in for such treatment.

Applicable context


✔️ Public zone
✔️ Private zone that advertises to be welcoming
✔️ Private zone where the viewer was invited in goodwill

Inapplicable context


❌ Private zone where the viewer chose to enter knowingly or despite warnings
❌ Private zone where the viewer enters without consent of the zone owner
The owner of a private zone may declare what people are allowed to enter. Such declaration by itself does not constitute hate speech if it focuses on the membership requirement of the private zone.
Concept: Virtual Public Zone

This topic is about the role of filter on a forum to describe in what cases can a person talk about what they hate without violating someone's rightful presence. Once upon a time on {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/LRRHBakery/status/1518661993841922049","desc":"Twitter"}. A public zone is where a person could rightfully be and relevant to their daily lives. When the domain is a public forum on the internet, the public area is the range of default articles and pages that a user could visit if then did not intentionally search for private or offensive content. A site administrator can keep the site free of actionable hate speech if it has sufficient means to prevent content of hate speech from being reached for non-optional usage, and from being reached for optional usage without warning. For example, if the user is trying to understand how to use the website and does a search, the search result, by default, should not contain any hate speech or article guarded by a warning. If the user wants to see search results guarded by warnings, the user would need to intentionally change the setting to show such results. A website where the entire website is optional, may present just one boilerplate warning when a visitor arrives, regardless whether the specific article contains hate speech. This also means that a search engine website does not need to filter its search results if it has already warned the user when the commit to the search. However, if a website advertises to be a safe place regarding hate speech, then it needs to filter out hate speech in its normal search.
Countermeasures

According to reciprocative justice, an offender of hate speech violates the autonomy of the victim's right to be present. Thus, the offender voids their own right to be present. The offender is liable for damage they cause and can be expelled from the zone.

Both Ann and Bob know how to drive and where to go. But they decide to to carpool so that each of them only needs to drive half the time, and either could cover the other if one feels unwell.

Dependence


Cid is the drive and know where to go. Deb is Cid's friend who could do neither. Cid could have gone for the trip by himself, but having Deb's company makes the trip a lot more fun.

Interdependence


Only Eve can drive and only Fey knows where to go. With only one of them, the trip would be impossible. Together they can do something they can't do separately.
Interdependence can be used to describe a relationship where entities rely on each other in such a way that every member in the group would fail if any one of them is missing. When Ann and Bob are already competent in completing the trip by themself, making them become dependent of each other would make them more vulnerable to failure. Therefore, interdependence but itself is normally not a type of solution, but a vulnerability to overcome.
Solution: Forced Interdependence

Forced Interdependence describes a solution where people are intentionally not given enough skill or access to be indepedent, they are made to be dependent on each other so that it would be disadvantageous for each of them to harm another.

Example: Hostage Families


To avoid rebellion, the central government requires the families of feudal lords to live at the capital as hostages.

Example: Separation of Power


To avoid a quick path to monarchy, a government separates its power into legislative, judicial, and executive branches, so that no single person may serve all functions at once.
In the above solutions, the individual could do more, but their power to do so are limited. They are forbidden to do more. In peace ranking this type of solution belong to Rank 5: Control.
Solution: Empowerment with Power Limit ⭐⭐⭐

Forced Interdepedence can create unnecessary overhead and bureaucracy, and slow to adapt to technological changes. Empowerment with Power Limit is a solution type that let people streamline processes as long as the overall outcome does not lead to too much power.

Example: Homestead


A person is allowed to own land, manage its resources, and set rules on their land as long as the practice does not create negative externalities (e.g. pollution). No tax is collected from the owner, but the owner may not own too much land such that someone does not have enough land to own.
In the example above, each land owner may function as a monarch, the the limitation of power could result in every person being a monarch in their own right, and no one needs to work for anyone to sustain their own life. In peace ranking, this type of solution belongs to Rank 3: Coexistence.
Solution: Mutual Aid ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mutual Aid describes the context where the entities of comparable abilities form an alliance to help each other in times of greater needs.

Example: Fire Fighting


Each fire fighting team/department is a complete fire fighting unit that could normally handle their local incidents. When a big fire occurs, teams from different cities join force to fight together.
Separately, none of the local fire departments can handle the big fire that may occur in their city. But together they have the resource to handle such rare emergency. In peace ranking this type of solution belongs to Rank 2: Cooperation.

Contextual Note


Note that in the fire fighting example, if technology advances allow each local fire department to handle all incidents so that mutual aid is no longer necessary, limiting the technology available to fire fighters so that they need to cooperate with other cities is not a solution. Synergy is the solution to deal with a lack of individual power. Interdependence exists when the departments employs mutual aid as the solution. Interdependene by itself is remains a vulnerability.

Taxonomy is a system of naming and classification. As a subject, taxonomy is the study of how to name and classify so that the result is effective for a given purpose.
First word

  1. You have a lot of notes If you have trouble finding a specific note or notes that are similar, you would waste time making new notes when you couldn't find the old notes. You would also miss the opportunities to observe patterns from similar notes.
  2. You have trouble filing something You learned something important or interesting, but you don't know where to file it so that you can remember it when that information would be relevant.
These are some effective methods and concepts on getting organized.
This is a method of putting things in the same bucket and split them into different buckets when the bucket is full. The advantage of this method is that you don't need to thick about how to sort them until the bucket is full.And when that happens, hopefully you can see a pattern and a logical way to split them. A group code is a code used on a spreadsheet to mark entries of similar content so that they can be listed for comparison easily. I was trying to clear guild log entries and came across this practice described by Tanya. Is that good or bad? Added a master spec code to avoid keyword search The context was Cardinal Quest, where we keep master documents with information about each quest aspect that could repeat. In addition to a descriptive title of each repeatable aspect, we also have use a serialized code (e.g. S14). The code is used in spreadsheets so we can identify which entires are for that quest. What that short code, we would either try to repeat a more lenghtly description, or write a slightly different description for each entry, which would make it hard to filter and tally in a spreadsheet. I think it is a good practice. We replaced something long with something short that we can tally. Don't we use that concept extensively for failure codes? MTG vs MTB. I think failure codes are better because they are acronyms. I think acronyms is only suited when there are many of them. There are too many quest aspects. Acronyms are prone to mistakes when the user uses a wrong one without realizing it. A serial code forces them to look it up. Sometimes I don't look it up and just type a text description. If we need to query or tally I think it is easy enough to substitute. I like how those codes used to be different per region. Now they are standardized across regions. It seems that the practice is overall good. What should we call this practice? The most important effect is in MAP. It lets us filter the aspect across different regions. I would say this practice is about assgining a code to enable filtering on a spreadsheet. How is it different from tagging or keywords? Each entry can only have one code. The code is an ID of the entry, not just a descriptive tag. Looking at MAP, the effect of "enabling filtering" doesn't make sense bcause we also include the text description of each entry at the MAP. We could have filtered using the text description instead of the code. There is no rule what goes in the description section, and I think the description is not always the same, we use that to note any differences when two extremely similar aspects share the same code. Tanya is right. The descriptions are not all the same. XD Ok. Should this be called ID code to allow filtering and finding similar entries? Could it be called Group Code? Group means the items are not necessarily the same, but they belong to the same group. Best description so far.
  1. Directories Ivy: In this method, you define for yourself a classification that makes sense to you then organize your things according to that scheme. An example is the Eisenhower matrix {"cmd":"url","url":"https://asana.com/resources/eisenhower-matrix","desc":"🔗"} You can help yourself remember what goes to what by also keeping a written guide for yourself.
  2. Tracking ID Vivi: This is the concept of giving any piece of new object an ID and include it on a list, and worry about its name later. This is the kind of system used in support tickets or delivery systems, where the name of the ticket isn't important as long as it is tracked for someone to handle.
  3. Narrated Index This is a system where you create a searchable document describing what things there are and where they are. A wiki is an example of a narrated index. Another example is an inventory list. On that document, you could refer to the same object from more than one place. In general, if you think that a section should lead you to that object, you should add a reference there.
  4. Tagging This concept is newer than traditional taxonomy made practical by modern computing. Instead of deciding which group an object is in, you tag the object based on what it is, and let the computing environment present it when you look for objects with that tag. An example of tagging is Google Mail or Wordpress, where you could tag a message with multiple tags so that you can find it from different directions. Here at Magic Bakery, the nodes also have tags.
🕊️ In Practice

  1. Troubleshooting Notes (TSN) Black: These notes are used for resolving issues as they arise. It has four sections: Black: The alarm section is for issues that come with an alarm code (such as from computers). Having an alarm code allows related troubleshooting information be collected under the same code. Black: The category section is for issues that do not come with an alarm code. They are organized by the apparent effect, what the user is trying to do, or the feature the user is using when the issue happens. Black: The reference section has tables and other common information that other section refers to. This prevents common information from being duplicated. Black: The procedure section has common procedures to fix an issue, or procedures on how a task should be done to avoid issues.
🦉 Great by Design

Qualities of Good Taxonomy

  1. Easy to File A good taxonomy system should be easy to use. This includes features where a person with a new piece of information can just file first without considering how the information should be categorized. After filing,the system can still easily classify or tag it as people study it and discover its properties.
  2. Easy to Tag The information is easy to classify, or even automatically tagged based on its content.
  3. Easy to Retrive The user can retrieve relevant information easily in ways intuitive to them. This usually means the user can just search instead of browse, and there are more than one way to locate a piece of information.
🦅 Unsolved Mysteries

  1. Universal, Expandable, and Organic Taxonomy

Reciprocative Justice
[202211251119]

202211232011|◀ 2022 NOV 25 FRI 11:19 AM
Wyvern Island

Tweeter who asked about reciprocative justice replied with some more question. LRRH: And there are more questioned before that I have no answered.

LRRH: The question is "What if there is no money?" My reply would be "wealth" doesn't imply money. "Wealth" is things under a person's rightful control, including health. Tweet.
Tanya: I think that should be a node defining wealth. 202211251143|Wealth & Poverty
LRRH: Next, the question is what happens if Bob dies and he has no family or friends.Tweet
Tanya: A court can use factors of the offender's reaction to judge malice. Tanya: I am updating the node first. #P202210252042|Reciprocative Justice Little Red Riding Hood replied with Tanya's answers.
Wealth refers to things under a person's rightful control. It includes a person's life, health, personal possessions, favors promised to them, and decision rights.
Definition: Poverty

Poverty is defined at Magic Bakery as an undesirable state where a person is in or trapped in a system where a limitation of resources prevents them from sustaining living necessities. LRRH: It is defined this way to make it easier to discuss solutions to poverty, which is by our definition a problem.

Poverty is...


✔️ Everyone starving in a famine
✔️ A hard worker couldn't earn enough for basic food and shelter

Poverty is not...


❌ Frugal lifestyle by choice
❌ Lazy lifestyle
❌ A person with no possession by is taken cared of by society
Solutions to poverty caused by hoarding

Hoarding can cause poverty when individuals are allowed to "take as much as they want" and leave latecomers with nothing. Possession and trading laws can promote or prevent poverty caused by hoarding.

🧱 ENFORCEMENT


202209212331|Stewardism
Set a limit on how much a person is allowed to hoard, so that hoarding at the legal limit would not cause poverty unless the world really doesn't have enough for everyone.

🌊 ALTRUISM


???
Solutions to poverty caused by learned helplessness

Learned helplessness* causes poverty when a person is told or came to believe that there is nothing they can do about their condition. This is different from a person being lazy. Evelyn: An example is when a person believes that success is for people who are born with talent, but in reality those people started just like them and learned from their failures. LRRH: Learned helplessness is different from "innate" helplessness where a person simply doesn't know how to help themself, or when they are in a situation where they can't help themself. {"cmd":"url","url":"https://twitter.com/stayathigh/status/1599544033684385793","desc":"[Twitter]"}

☀️ Knowledge


Share information on how people become successful to put talent and effort in proper perspective.

🔥 Encouragement


Recognize people for their efforts and improvements (not only when they are the best in their cohort).
Solutions to poverty caused by inefficient processes

Inefficient processes can cost more resources than needed, thus contributing to poverty.

☀️ Knowledge


Share more efficient and less wasteful ways to use resources. 🛸

🌳 Artifact


Maintain a library of blueprints, manuals, and recipes so people may archieve and retrieve productive methods according to resources available to them.

☁️ Freedom


Remove laws that forbid people from using efficient methods and resources.
Solutions to poverty caused by lack of communication

Lack of communication can cause poverty when people who need resources do not know that there are resources available, and those with spare resources do not know that someone is in need.

☀️ Knowledge


Share information on available resources in the community. 🛸

202211270925|Delivery: Magic Elements
202211062019|◀ 2022 NOV 27 SUN 9:25 AM
Wyvern Island

This is about drafting for Chapter 16 Page 8. 3B: The topic is delivery and Ledia was in the middle of speaking.

Ledia: The Water element represents calmness and goodwill. Having too much of that can compromise security measures. 3B: In the drawing that is represented as leaving the gate open and the dragon enters on page 7.
Ledia: A way to deal with that is to put the people lowering the security and the threat in the same group. If what they preach would work, then the threat should be resolved. If they realize that what they preach would not work, then the second barrier containing them is still intact.
Ivy: When a change is proposed that would compromise security, inform the proposer of the list of threats and have them go on trial to show the effect of the proposal on those threats. Therefore, the key asset in resolving such conflict is the list of threats.
Ledia: The monster directory.
LRRH: I am lost. How is this related to the original message and what we disagree on?
Ledia: Previously we looked at the message and each of you came up with something you agree, and what you disagree. Instead of just saying what you disagree, this step sets the trial so that both the original solution and your solution can be judged.
Ivy: If people agree on the rubric, you don't necessarily need to tell people a solution. They could come up with a solution.
Evelyn: I think the original message had an Earth problem because it is trying to show that some views need to be eliminated, and their proposal of education of gradual culture shift are the only ways.
Evelyn: The counter element is Air, where Red and Zoey were saying that there are more ways.
LRRH: Then are we comparing the cause of improvements? Because the original message argued that the Only way is such and such, we only need to find some counter examples where some other causes lead to improvement.
Ivy: In that case, the asset you need are a way to tell whether something is an improvement, a way to attribute the cause of the improvement, and an actual example. Zoey: So we still need the rubric.
3B: For the manga, instead of discussing how to deal with each element one by one, I think it would be better if we focus on the element related to the message and continue with just that one, first.
Tanya: I think we need to do all elements at once, at least in the background. Without comparing them, we would misindentify the situation. Tanya: We should make a node. We are defining magical elements for @Dungeon. @StarTree please make a node. StarTree: Wee~~! 202211271009|🌠 Magic Elements Tanya: I propose we create the summary about the elements so far so we can compare them. Evelyn: I'll do the water section. Evelyn is recognized for Water Magic. Zoey: I suppose I'll do earth in the same format. Evelyn: I don't mean to dictate the format. 😖 Zoey: It is good though. 👍 Zoey is recognized for Earth Magic. LRRH: Is there any logical order to how the elements are presented. Tanya: I think Air can be on top. Little Red Riding Hood is recognnized for Air Magic. LRRH: We all got an element that is not our main element. Evelyn: 😊 Ledia: I think the header should including the main meaning. Tanya: Good idea.
LRRH: How many elements are there? Can I do fire also?
Ledia: There are at least two more: Light and Wood. Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for Fire Magic. Ledia is recognized for Light Magic. Zoey is recognized for Wood Magic.
Evelyn: With these definitions, how do we tell if a message has too much of an element or too little of another element? Ivy: The list is missing the assets that I was talking about. Tanya: We need to add them also. Ledia: Containing overflowing water is an Earth Element skill. But I think in the list I would add that in the Water section because it is a countermeasure for a Water issue. Tanya: Let's see that. Ledia is recognized for the Earth Magic Contain. Ledia is recognized for Earth Magic. Ivy: I add the threat list. Ivy is recognized for the Wood Magic Thread List. Ivy is recognized for Wood Magic. Ivy: For rubrics I will add to the Light section. Ivy is recognized for the Wood Magic Rubric. Zoey: Should sharing of principle be a Light skill? And finding a viable example be Wood skill? Tanya: If it is wrong we can change it. Zoey is recognized for Rubric Sharing and Counter Example. Ivy is recognized for Attribute Analysis. Evelyn: I think we've covered the ideas from today. Last time Ledia talked about a timeout for people to regain mana. I think that is a water skill against fire. Evelyn and Ledia are recognized for Long Rest.
Zoey: On this list, what is Evelyn's signature move Protect?
Evelyn: I think it is a water skill against too much air or fire. When Red runs around, things can ignite. The bubble prevents lighting things up. Zoey: The spell was not for protecting Red but to protect others from Red. XD Evelyn: Red is already very tough. 😅 Evelyn: I'll put that in Air because that has no countermeasure yet. Evelyn is recognized for Protective Bubble. Zoey: Wood Magic is the only one left without any countermeasure.
Black: Crystallization is a countermeasure where things that are similar or the same combine to keep its function but take less space. Zoey: How exactly does that make space? Do you destroy the duplicates? Black: If there is no room then you keep the better one. Black is recognized for Crystallization and Earth Magic. Zoey: Can I define an Air skill of letting go and freeing one's self? Zoey is recognized for the skill Levitate. Zoey: I can't bring myself to write about destroying artifacts. XD Sasha: That's what I say about the board games! Zoey: I can do recycle and blueprint though.
Sasha: I am trying to get through some board games, does anyone else want to play NCIS? Evelyn: I think we are already on a detour from 3B's thread. We are trying to draft page 8. 😅 Sasha: 3B do you have enough idea for Page 8?
3B: I think the content would be Evelyn saying the original message seemed to be too intolerant of other ideas (too much Earth). 3B: Then somehow Ivy said the party would need to gather three things: A rubric to tell if an outcome is good, A way to analyze the cause, and An example of something good. LRRH: Didn't we already have examples of technology and questing? I think unless someone argues that those are not good example, we don't need to keep looking. We can deliver those already. Ivy: Those examples do not directly address "Short-term individualism" and the belief that "self-interest is good for all." LRRH: I think we are avoiding those terms because they are not defined. Ivy: What if the speaker had a definition for good versus bad individualism?
Evelyn: I think we both agree that there is a margin where individualism is not too little and not too much. Evelyn: How about we start with that and define that margin? 3B: I think I would give you the whole page 8 for that. Tanya: Are we taking the stance where individualism and collectivism are extremes on the same spectrum, or that they are two separate spectrums of too little and too much?
Evelyn: I think good individualism includes following a calling and exploring new areas even when others don't see the benefit. Evelyn: Sometimes a person needs to stick to path alone long enough for others to see the merit. Ledia: But you should still be allowed to do it if no one else understands, as long as you are not hurting others. Tanya: @StarTree please make a node on Individualism vs Collectivism. Ivy: Survey is a Light skill. What Tanya is doing is Matrix. That is a Wood skill. Ivy is recognized for Survey. Tanya is recognized for Definition Boundary. StarTree: Wee~~! 202211271530|🎓 Individualism vs Collectivism
Sasha: Is this a boss fight? You've just cast grasping vines on "Individualism". Tanya: Let's start by treating the two as separate first. And see if it is redundant if we fill all six boxes.
Ledia: So far it looks like they are extremes on the same spectrum.
Sasha: Should we call the middle Mutualism? Tanya: That's seems like the way to go. Sasha: What is a word or phrase that means appreciation but too individualistic? Evelyn: Egocentrism? Sasha: And too collectivistic? Ledia: Fanaticism? The Mutualism node is created.
Evelyn: With this definition, can we conclude that the message on page 4 meant a system must teach people out of extreme individualism or fail? LRRH: Yes. And we disagree because a system such as Quest Society can handle people who have an extreme individualistic view. Zoey: We disagree that individualism is the only possible root problem. We disagree that educations and gradual cultural shifts are the only way to a better system.
Evelyn: Then I would say the original message only looked at the gap between extreme individualism and mutualism, and only the education/cultural path.
3B: In that case, Evelyn would say, "The original message seems to consider only when there is too much individualism. If we consider both sides... a system that has too much collectivism can improve by allowing more individualism. In an actual society there are probably areas troubled by different extremes." Evelyn: And Zoey and Red add "And there are more than one way to reach mutualism." I think we can focus on listing all the paths instead of focusing on that we disagree. Sasha: Let's add them to the mutualism node. Sasha is recognized for the Light magic Illuminate. Sasha casts illuminate. Sasha: That's what you should write. StarTree: Gamie~~! LRRH: I added matchmaking as a path to mutualism. Little Red Riding Hood is recognized for the Fire magic Matchmaking. Ivy is recognized for the Wood skill Invention. Ledia is recognized for the Air magic Liberate. Ledia receives Ledia: I will have that as a weapon skill: Chain Breaker.
Sasha: Think we can add a relevant water and earth path? Evelyn: I think reward can be water path. Evelyn is recognized for the Water magic Reimbursement (Mana Transfer). Evelyn casts mana transfer. Sasha: Who is doing the final blow? Tanya: How about together? Tanya is recognized for the Earth magic Combine Power. Paths to Mutualism section is completed.
Sasha: So will 3B draw this fight?
3B: I will have to think about how to transition from what we have to this fight.
Sasha: Transition is easy. You could just draw that I summoned two monsters while the heroes are talking. Evelyn: I am fine with Sasha's interpretation. 3B: I can prepare page 8 with two monster. One Air element dragon for Extreme Individualism, and one Earth element dragon for Extreme Collectivism. They will both be shadow/illusion type monsters to be defeated for training purpose. Evelyn: I think I have too much say in what happens, if someone else want to second. 😅
Zoey: I think I want a scene where the Earth monster breaks out from under us. 3B: I think I can draw that... So Sasha will use monster cards and appear in the corner. 3B: We need to design the monsters.
Sasha: Earth monster: Turtle shaped dragon that can mindcontrol surrounding lives, suck their soul and, split out a darkening mist. Those caught in the mist become hallucinated and rely on the Turtle for guidance.
Sasha: Air monster: Mecha dragon that absorbs surrounding resources and shoots missles. Tanya: I think if the Air monster represents individualism, then it shouldn't be big. A single person can't build or maintain a mecha dragon. It takes some kind of hierarchy or forced collaboration for that to exist. I think a more fitting monster type would be a group of pillaging dragons that would also fight each other. Sasha: I think the big mecha dragon would be part of the Turtle's hallucination. Zoey: If we do that... it would seem that the mecha dragons don't exist in real life. XD Zoey: It would be like the turtle is really fighting another turtle. The mist is there to absorb the freedom. XD Sasha: I don't mind that interpretation. 3B: If I draw this fight, then it will probably not end up the same way as finding paths for Mutualism. Because we are adding new things as we discuss. Sasha: That's fine. The Turtle erupts from the ground and sprays mist, Through the mist we see the mecha dragon shooting missles at us. Evelyn: Then would the Turtle ask us for help? Sasha: Yes, and if an actual mecha dragon is down, it would ask for help also. Tanya: I think that is a good training setting. 3B: Okay. Then please wait. 3B thanks all for the ideas.

202211271530|🍯 Mutualism {"cmd":"PIN2","node":"202211271530","music":""}

What individualists call good indivdualism, and what collectivists call good collectivism, is mutualism.
Mutualism is defined as a margin between extreme individualism and extreme collectivism where good qualities claimed by each side are retained.
Comparison

Tanya: We started by listing the undesirable effects of having too little or too much individualism or collectivism separate. But our lists showed that the effects of "too little individualism" is the same as "too much collectivism", and vice versa. Tanya: Therefore, we were left with the conclusion that both pure individualism and pure collectivism are undesirable. What people consider to be good individualism and good collectivism refer to the same region. Mutualism was the closest term we found that would mean that region.

Extreme Individualism


⚠️ Win-Lose mentality
⚠️ Inconsiderate
⚠️ Egocentrism
⚠️ Excess duplication
⚠️ Inciting
⚠️ Emptiness

Mutualism


✅ Win-Win mentality
✅ Considerate
✅ Prudent appreciation
✅ Efficient
✅ Respectful
✅ Significance

Extreme Collectivism


⚠️ Lose-Win mentality
⚠️ Subservient
⚠️ Fanaticism
⚠️ Excess bureaucracy
⚠️ Controlling
⚠️ Expendable
Paths to Mutualism

☀️ Awareness


Share the concept of mutualism and its relationship with individualism and collectivism. It is pretty hard to object mutualism because it has the good qualities claimed by both sides.

🔥 Matchmaking


Matchmaking groups people who with possibily different individual goals together to form an efficient team where members do not have competitive conflict against each other for the reward of the task.

🌳 Technology


Create technologies that let people cooperate and customize. Empower people to help themselves and help each other.

☁️ Cooperative Freedom


Remove laws that prevent people from helping themselves or each other.

🌊 Reimbursement


Reimburse those who help so that they may keep helping, and allow those who cannot directly help to contribute the supply and reward chain.

🧱 Containment


Define boundary and contain externalities so that polluters can be held accountable.

🌊 Inclusive Mixer


Create opportunities for people from different walks of life or background to come together for common goal or entertainment to build unity through appreciation of diversity.

202211302139|Skyle's score
2022 NOV 30 WED 9:39 PM
Magic Bakery

Skyle's score has been updated! StarTree: The field log doesn't track non-member scores for daily quest!

StarTree: Skyle is currently a level 10 cleric. Evelyn: 🤗 Skyle is now added to the roster.
Sasha: It is the end of the month, anyone wants to play NCIS with me? Sasha: I played with Tanya last time. It is actually fun. Tanya: It is a detective game where players take turn to decide where to get the next clue. Tanya: The players cannot get all the clues and must decide one suspect to arrest. Tanya: There is some room for debate on who to arrest. Evelyn: I would prefer games where the theme doesn't involve someone getting hurt. Ledia: Are all suspects murder suspects? Tanya: Yes. Sasha: But it shouldn't matter, you could just change the context so that they aren't dead dead but hospitalized. And by the Grace of Evelyn, if Evelyn gets the right suspect, the victim will be saved and there will be a happy ending. Zoey: XD Ledia: Interesting twist. Tanya: Is that enough?
Evelyn: I feel that Sasha has gone out of her way to invite me to make sure that I can have fun so I feel that I should reciprocate and play. 😅 Sasha: Yes, Evelyn, you are what we need to make the good endings.
Ledia: How many people can play? Tanya: It doesn't matter, but there are only six clues in each of the 4 rounds. The game setting has six main characters: Leader, three detectives, a forensic specialist, and a medical examiner. Ledia: Can we use the guild channel though? Tanya: @LRRH, is it okay if we add a warning? LRRH: I think yes. But I don't want to get into any copyright issue. So no posting actual dialogues or text from the game. Sasha: I think we could play as ourselves. So, regardless what the card says, the person who gets the card decides what to tell the rest of the group, and that will be what the rest know. If the describer misses a clue, then the group will miss the clue. Ledia: Exciting change.
Tanya: How do you plan to deal with the part about bonus clues for matching the agents? Sasha: I say let just count Arcacia Awards during the game. Maybe for every 6 Arcacia Awards for the game we get a bonus clue. Tanya: I think that will make the game harder. Sasha: I think it will be okay. Tanya: May I add a rule that in each round we are limited to the number of players for each clue? So that if we don't have six players, we get fewer clues per round? Sasha: I'm fine with that challenge if the players will help recruit in case we don't have enough. Zoey: I'm in! XD Tanya: Let's start and see what happens. Sasha are you making the thread? Sasha: I think you should start the thread because you are the most Gibbs. Tanya: @StarTree please make a new thread. StarTree: Wee~~! 202211302252|NCIS the Game Sasha: By the way I promoted the game here because I was thinking maybe newer members can join. I wasn't trying to be totally off-topic. Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for being friendly. Tanya: Sasha could you start the context intro? Then I play Gibbs. Sasha: Okay.

Magic Bakery

Magic Bakery plays NCIS the game! Sasha: This thread is for us to play NCIS the Game with a Magic Bakery Spin where you get to play as yourself as a special agent. Sasha: The object of the game is to guess the culprit to arrest at the end of four rounds of searching for clues. Sasha: In each round the players can choose 6 out of 8 locations to get clues. Sasha: To avoid a player dominating the flow, each player decides where to go. The first player who decides to go will get the actual clue from the game by the GM (which is currently me). Sasha: Once you get the clue, you may roleplay the content the way you want. You may reinterpret what happens (instead of following word-for-word the dialogue from the game). Sasha: However, if you miss a clue that is important, no one else will know it! That is part of the game in Magic Bakery Style. Sasha: And we will keep track of the number of Arcacia Awards during the game. For every six awards, the group gets a bonus clue. Sasha: I think that's enough explaining. Let's play!
Tanya: Warning: The actual cards may have violent content, but you are allowed to reword or change the scene. Tanya: In the story, is Magic Detectives the agency receiving the cases? Sasha: It can be. It is up to whoever that does the first plot twist card.

Tanya: Magic Detectives received a call that a crime has occured at an address. As the agents arrive at the long driveway toward the house, a young man covered in red comes running out to the front door saying, "Come quick! Someone has killed my dad!" Tanya: Please use CHAT for Roleplay content and BUBBLE for other discussions. Did Tanya already sugarcoat the setting? Not really. I think how the young man appears and say might be important. Tanya: At this point there are 8 possible locations to explore for clues: 1) The Crimescene. 2) The Headquarters, 3) The young man. and five other suspects that from the story you won't know yet, but in the game you could choose them. Tanya: So, who wants to go to the crime scene? Evelyn: I suppose I should go because I am trying to save the victim. Tanya: I am on scene also. If the card has a dialogue, you could include me. Sasha: I think in general we can all talk because we have phones. Evelyn: Ok. Evelyn gets clue 287
Evelyn: Inside the house was a man that was attacked many times. Evelyn casts freeze to preseve the body at its state. "Whoever did this seems to be very angry," Evelyn thought. "We better figure out what happened before bring him back."
Tanya: As Evelyn moves the body to custody, Tanya noticed a bloody awl nearby that could be the murder weapon. Tanya sends that as evidence back to the lab. What is an awl? It is a piercing tool, such as for leatherwork. Do we get points for guessing the murderer? How did the son be covered in blood if he was not the murderer? Were there any sign of him trying to save the dad? XD The clue I got didn't say anything about evidence of anyone trying to help the dad. Zoey: I want to interview the son. XD I think we need to detain him. Zoey gets clue 186
Zoey: Zoey interviews the 22-year-old son of the victim, who is a general. In his sobbing voice, he said, "I knew this would happen. I just knew it..." The scene did not make sense to Zoey. "What do you mean?" Zoey asked.
Zoey: "There are several people threatening my dad," said the son. He went on and provided four suspects: 1) A general who almost attacked the dad yesterday; 2) A neighborhood black kid who has been stalking the dad for a week, 3) A person by the name Tuna who was still angry; 4) And a terrorist guy who sent a threatening disc.
Zoey: Zoey can't help but feel that this son is trying really hard to find someone else as a scapegoat. Sasha: The remaining locations to explore this round are: 1) Headquarters, 2) The other general, 3) The black kid, 4) Angry Tuna, 5) The terrorist guy, 6) and another suspect. I think it might help to first get fingerprints or something from the awl. But I don't want to play that part. Tanya: I will take headquarters. Sasha: But you already did plot twist 1. Tanya: I see. Then we actually need seven people per round. Tanya: @StarTree please help us. StarTree: Wee~~! Zoey: StarTree FTW! XD StarTree gets clue 262
StarTree: At the Adventurers' Guild lab, StarTree has been helping Ivy running tests for evidences. Among them is a blood stained work glove that the victim was wearing. "This glove has a trace of blood that is several hours old but does not belong to the victim. Please find a match." said Ivy. "Roger!" said StarTree.
StarTree: At the quest channel, StarTree tells the other detectives about the finding. Does that mean the blood stain is not from the son? It is not clear from the clue! I think that is implied, since family members should have very similar blood. The clue card used the lastname. It wasn't clear whether the glove belonged to the victim or his son. I guess it meant the victim. Ledia: I want to interview the last suspect that hasn't been disclosed. Ledia gets clue 23
Ledia: Ledia thinks that so far the awl is the most important evidence linking the victim to his attacker. Just around the house, there was a new addition being built. Tools and wood planks were laying about. It looks like more than one person were building the addition.
Ledia: "Who was in charge of the construction?" Ledia asked the son.
Ledia: The son said, "It is some carpentry guy my dad hired." He then gave Ledia the contact info. I think that is progress. And I think that the clue refers to the victim by lastname, and his son by first name. So the victim was wearing the glove. Sasha: We can interview two more suspects before next round. Sasha: I suppose I will interview the other general. Sasha gets clue 164
Sasha: Sasha who is also on scene, asked the son about the other general who amost attacked the victim yesterday. The son gave the name, and said, "They hated each other. It all started when my dad got a big promotion recently. He claimed that it only happened because my dad is Latino."
Sasha: Sasha thinks to herself, "How angry would you need to be to kill someone over a promotion?" Sasha doesn't find that to be a strong motive, but plays along to see how much the son knows about his dad. Sasha: Last clue before Plot Twist. Remaining clues are 1) The black kid, 2) The Terrorist guy, 3) Angry Tuna. LRRH: Terrorist guy. Red gets clue 249
LRRH: Back at the bakery, Little Red Riding Hood recognized the victim. "Isn't this the man that a certain anti-war talk show host talked about?" Red went back to the talk show that blamed the victim for being one of the top strategists in the war. Is the victim a good guy or a bad guy? Sasha: And that's all for round 1! The game continues... Please return for Plot Twist 2! Sasha thanks the players.

Board Game

NCIS the Game

This is a play-once-only detective game of
guess the culprit!

BGG
202211302252|PIN 202211302252
Welcome to Magic Bakery Plays NCIS! This is a game where we reveal clues and try to guess the correct culprit! The game can only be played once. If you don't want spoilers, please don't read our play log!
🥨 Magic Bakery House Rules

The following rules are mainly for players who are into roleplaying (i.e. describing yourself as a detective investigating and talking to suspects). If you don't want to RP, you can still choose clue, make guesses and comment.
⭐ Each player may only choose one clue per round. Sasha: That includes the plot twist card. So it takes at least seven players to get six clues before advancing the plot. 20221212: Sasha: Depending on who is playing, we might reveal all 8 clues for the first three rounds, which leaves the last round with only 2 free clues to make the game *harder*!
⭐ The player who chooses the card tells the rest what happens. Sasha: We are playing as ourselves, not the characters in the NCIS series. The player may simplify or change the content of the clue entirely. It is part of the game even if a vital clue is omitted. 20221212: Sasha: If you think someone else can roleplay the content better, you may give them your clue for them to roleplay instead. The main point is that the person who chooses the clue may choose not to share it.
⭐ Every six Arcacia Awards give a Bonus clue Sasha: We don't track whether an agent matches the location because we are playing as ourselves. But we track the number of Arcacia Awards during the play. For every six Arcacia Awards, the team gets one more clue. Bonus clues are not bound by the player limit. 20221212: Sasha: The original game was designed to give no more than 3 bonus clues. We keep that limit.
⭐ Each player chooses a suspect that they would arrest. Sasha: The players don't need to debate to reach a consensus on just one suspect. We will simply see who gets the right suspect.
👑 Player Scores

Detective Level = min(floor( sqrt( [Detective XP] × [Hit Rate])),[Win]) Sasha: Explanation of Detective Level: You need two things to level up. 1) You need to give relevant ideas on what to think about the case. They are counted by the lightbulb symbols. 2) You need to be correct when you guess the suspect or answer questions at the end of each game. Your detective level is the square root of your lightbulb count nerfed by your miss rate, and bound by your number of wins. Sasha: This means that if you are level 5, you must have been correct at least 5 times AND have helped others at least 25 times.

📝 Detective Notes

Body and Crime Sceme

Injection marks between toes
Hatchet

Motive: Exist He is hoping to get paid by the victim. Maybe he would get paid through the victim's wife after killing the victim, since the wife seems to like him.
Means: Strong Everyone seems to know where the victim stores his needle. Hatchet would swap the content. It would also be easy for him to drag the body of the victim into the swimming pool.
Chance: Strong There is evidence that Hatchet was present in the wife's car.
Campaign Operative

Motive: None She is hopping to get the victim re-elected. She might have killed the victim by mistake.
Means: Strong Assuming she is the heroine supplier, she could kill the victim without touching his needle.
Chance: Strong As the victim's campaign operator, (and perhaps heroin supplier), she can meet with the victim regularly.
Wife

Motive: None There is no evidence of malice.
Means: Weak Everyone seems to know where the victim stores his needle. The wife could swap the content, but perhaps not to drag the victim's body into the swimming pool. Her involvement in the crime might be to remove the tape to hide the murderer.
Chance: Strong The wife has access in the house and does not yet have an alibi.
Businessman

Motive: He wants to make money with the victim.
Means: None Did he touch the needle?
Chance: Strong They met and fought.
Political Rival

Motive: Strong The Rival can benefit greatly if the victim cannot run for re-election.
Means: None There is no evidence connecting the Rival to the needle.
Chance: None There is no evidence that the Rival was on scene to effect the murder.
Commanding Officer

Motive: None There is no evidence that he wants the victim dead.
Means: None There is no evidence linking him to the needle.
Chance: None There is no evidence placing him at the crime scene.

📝 Detective Notes

Body and Crime Sceme

Poisoned at apartment. Found an almost empty bottle of poisoned energy drink with Blake's fingerprints. There are no signs of a break-in.
Conan

Motive: Weak I think Conan and the victim worked together but their work relation ended. Conan might kill out of jealousy.
Means: Strong Conan has poison frogs. Will the lab match the poison? Mr. Conan has the coat hangers that could be used to steal a bottle from Mr. Blake's car. The poison from the bottle is poison frog poison.
Chance: None We don't yet know how the frog poison could get to the victim.
Dragon

Motive: Weak Dragon didn't like the victim for shutting him off and could opt for revenge.
Means: None There is no link to Dragon.
Chance: None The no long work together. The victim shut him off.
Father

Motive: Strong He gave the victim his retirement saving. As the victim's next of kin, maybe he would get the money back by murder.
Means: None There is no link to the poison.
Chance: None It is never suggested that the father could get to the son's apartment.
Girlfriend

Motive: Weak Maybe to get even or to split the victim's money with her lover who is the victim's dad!
Means: None There is no link to the poison, yet.
Chance: Exist She is in town, perhaps they did meet?
Mr. Blake the Boss

Motive: None As the victim's boss, Mr. Blake probably have better means to get even than to resort to murder. I also think Mr. Blake needs the victim to work on the project.
Means: None There is no link between Mr. Blake and the poison, although the bottle at the victim's apartment has his fingerprints.
Chance: Strong As his current boss, Mr. Blake has the opportunity to meet the victim and give him a bottle.
Diamond, the Mad Hatter

Motive: Weak He claims that the victim owes him money and appear to be unable to afford a lawsuit. I think Diamond doesn't want to kill the victim because he is waiting for checks from him.
Means: None There is no link to the poison.
Chance: None There is no apparent way for him to reach the victim.

Crime Scene

Open field. Footprints of medium male or large female leading away from body. Uniform found under a log.
Mr. Lawyer

Motive: Strong Mr. Fox and the Victim put his wife in a coma and he court case for punitive damage failed. He has a strong motive out of of vengeance.
Means: Strong 1) The murder weapon is a British/American antique rifle. His father is an antique gun collector. 2) The body was found with ley. His father makes soap, where lye is a key ingredient.
Chance: Exist The crime scene is open, but we don't ahve physical evidence of the lawyer's presence.

Means: Strong Ms. Ready has ready access to a rifle that could fire the killing bullet!
Chance: StrongMs. Ready and the victim can easily meet!

Motive: Strong He has aparently killed Ms. Ready's lover before. Although it could also be that he has merely been covering up his daughter's murders.
Means: Strong He and Ms. Ready both have access to a rifle that can fire the killing bullet.
Chance: StrongSince Ms. Ready and the victim can arrange to meet, it seems reasonable to assume that Papa Ready could follow his daughter to the victim.
Mr. Ham

Motive: Weak Mr. Ham seems to have split the grant of $10K with the victim. But killing the victim to take the whole sum or to hide the crime seems to be a weak motive to me.

Chance: Strong Mr. Ham and the victim are best friends. Mr. Ham met and punched the victim the same night. Mr. Ham has no alibi.
Mr. Fox

Motive: None I don't see a motive. He likes the victim. I don't think he would kill him unless he mistook him for someone else.

Player comments

Good


20221204: Zoey: I am playing my second game, but so far it seems that this game does not have a concept of alibi. It think the intended complexity only allows a few clues connecting to a few suspects. Although I would not be surprised if the concept of alibis is used to eliminated a suspect in a later episode. Ledia: I like how the clues seems to correspond to one chronology, so it might be possible to go through them in the "original" order. It feels like a bonus when a clue follows immediately after another. 20221212: Ledia: This is not a comment about the game per se, but I think Sasha has just cracked the code on the best format so far for RP content at CASE 5. Huge improvement on readability compared to Case 2.

To be inspired by having role models.
Upward Comparison is comparing yourself to someone who is further in a path you are interested in to learn from them to improve yourself. Arcacia: Versus comparing yourself to someone you see to be worse than you to feel good about yourself(!) Is there someone or some actions you see as a role model? Let's look out for and share great examples!

NCIS
[202212012118]

202212012118|Case 2: Plot Twist 2
202211302250|◀ 2022 DEC 01 THU 9:18 PM
Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS. Sasha: Now at Plot Twist 2!

Sasha: Actually I need a volunteer who is not already on scene to take a clue. Otherwise plot twist 2 won't make sense. The volunteer will interview Tuna as part of Round 2. Evelyn: How long has it been since round 1? Sasha: We don't know. Zoey: Can I just teleport there? Sasha: Wouldn't you want to stick with the son? He is your prime suspect. Zoey: 🤔 Tanya: Can I see the text? Sasha: I guess I will pass it to you. Tanya gets clue 114
Tanya: At the crime scene, Tanya asked StarTree for the record of Mr. Tuna.
StarTree: Mr. Tuna was dishonorably discharged for disobeying order under the victim general, after his best friend and a few dozen fellow soldiers died under the victim general's command!
Tanya: "We should pay Mr. Tuna a visit." Tanya said on the quest channel. LRRH: Can I go? I am not on scene. Red gets Plot Twist 2
LRRH: Little Red took off to visit Mr. Tuna and wasted no time asking the obvious question, "Did you kill the general?" To which Mr. Tuna denied. Yet he admitted that he was still angry at the victim, especially after what just happened recently. "What else did the general do recently?" Little Red asked. Sasha: Thank you! now we are back to the normal sequence with 7 directions remaining for clues. StarTree will take the lab because StarTree thinks everyone is waiting for more test results! StarTree gets clue 225
StarTree: At the Adventurers' Guild lab, Ivy has finished examining the bloody awl. The blood belonged to the victim, and the only fingerprints on it matches those from the head carpenter contractor's prison record!
Ivy: There is also cornstarch residue on the awl.
Ledia: Do you mean the kind that could be left from latex gloves?
Ivy: Yes. Ledia: I will explore the crime scene more. Ledia gets clue 257
Ledia: StarTree's report on the awl convinced Ledia that the carpenter was being framed by the murderer. "The murderer wanted us to find the awl," Ledia said at the channel, "Now we need to search the crime scene again to look for evidences that the murderer did not want us to find." With a careful search, Ledia found a strand of gray hair lying on top of the victim's blood stain on the floor.
Sasha: We know that the other general, who is 58 years old, has gray hair and he was at the scene yesterday.
Ledia: "If this strand is his, it means that he might be here today." Ledia sends the hair to the lab. Sasha: I interview the colleague general. Sasha gets clue 70.
Sasha: Sasha was able to get a hold of the commander who promoted the victim instead of the other general. The commander knew of the other general's complaint, but asserted that victim was a better person for the job, despite the other general is his friend. From the video chat, Sasha noticed a photo where the commander and the unpromoted general posing together in front of a car. Sasha: Two more clues to get in this round. Choices are: 1) The son, 2) The Carpenter, 3) The Terrorist, 4) The Black Boy. It is probably not the son, but we should know more on how he found the body. I'll stick with the son. Zoey gets clue 171
Zoey: Zoey still has many questions for the son as he retrieved a DVD that the "Terrorist guy" sent to his family. The son said, "He accused my dad of war crimes and threaten him to withdraw from the war." As Zoey takes the disc as evidence, she notices that the son's knuckles are scraped and bruised. The timing of the scenes are quite puzzling. I hope that the son is no longer covered in blood. XD Evelyn: 😅 P4: P4 wants to talk to the black boy. P4 gets clue 192
P4: From Zoey's interview with him, the son explained that the "black kid" was a not-well-acquainted classmate in high school. That classmate was here yesterday while the victim was working on the house. The classmate refused to leave and the dad threw him out. "I think he might be a wannabe gangster," said the son. Sasha: And that's all for Round 2! Please return for Plot Twist 3! Sasha thanks the players.

Solutions are actionable plans that a person who wants to solve a problem can use to solve a problem.
📒 Definition

This definition is for Magic Bakery so that people can understand what we are talking about.

☹️ Problem State


Kitchen floor is wet and slippery.

🙂 Desirable State


No spilling on the kitchen floor.

💡 A Solution


Clean and dry the kitchen floor.
"Don't make the kitchen floor wet" is not a solution because when the floor is wet, telling people don't make it wet doesn't dry and it doesn't address people who make the floor wet. In comparison stating an enforceable consequence changes a demand into a solution.

Solution


"Those who don't keep the kitchen clean voluntarily will be forced to clean up and are banned from using the kitchen unless they commit to cleaning."

Demand


"Don't make the kitchen floor wet."
⭐ Solution Types

This section lists solution types to help brainstorming for solutions. The dirty kitchen problem is used for comparison. Multiple solution types can be in effect at once.

🧱 Enforcement


Forcing the wrongdoer to make amend. If they don't exclude them from the area so they can't create the problem there.

🌊 Altruism


Clean up after someone else even when the person cleaning is not the person who made it dirty.

NCIS

202212021942|Case 2: Plot Twist 3
202212012118|◀ 2022 DEC 02 FRI 7:42 PM
Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 2 Plot Twist 3!! Sasha: Can we finish both twists tonight and get the right culprit?

Sasha gets Plot Twist 3
Sasha: P4 sent back some blood data of the classmate to the lab, and that turned out to be a match for the other blood stain on the victim's glove.
Zoey: How did P4 get his blood sample? XD P4: Can the suspects have names like Mr. Tuna? Sasha: It is up to you when you roleplay. P4: P4 wants to continue with the classmate. P4 gets clue 204
P4: P4 went to look for the classmate Mr. Dolphin when he was playing a video game. When P4 knocked on his door, he started running out the backdoor and tripped on another P4. So we brought him back to headquarters. Mr. Dolphin has an incomplete gang tattoo. Ledia: Does it seem that if we had chosen Mr. Dolphin in Round 1 and Round 2, then plot Twist 3 would be chronological? And also Mr. Tuna and Plot Twist 2. Sasha: Yes... now you mentioned it. That is the game telling us, "You screwed up." XD StarTree: StarTree will check with Ivy. StarTree gets clue 273 StarTree: Clue 273 turns out not to be a lab result but something Evelyn can roleplay! Evelyn: Then I'll take clue 273.
Evelyn: At the headquarters, StarTree asked Evelyn to see Mr. Dolphin because his legs are trembling and he has difficulty walking. It seems that his tripping on P4 wasn't entirely an accident. "Are you hurting?" asked Evelyn. "No, but I can't really help it," said Mr. Dolphin. "Do you mind if I look for the cause?" asked Evelyn. With his permission, Evelyn cast inspect on Mr. Dolphin's legs. Evelyn is recognized for Cleric Skill Inspect. Evelyn receives Ledia: We might be behind, better get those Arcacia Awards coming for bonus clues. Ledia receives If we follow the gray hair, I should keep going. Zoey: You already did the plot twist. XD Sasha: Dang it. I forgot. LRRH: I continue with Mr. Tuna. Red gets clue 131
LRRH: "My appeal to the discharge was denied," said Mr. Tuna angrily, "Are we done here?" "Something smells good, Mr. Tuna. What are you cooking?" asked Little Red. To that question, Mr. Tuna suddenly got really annoyed. "There's no cooking here, okay? My wife left me over my discharge. Are we done here now?" Little Red Riding Hood said, "Do you want to meet someone, Mr. Tuna? I'm also a matchmaker. You have been really honest. You care deeply about your friends and colleagues, and you aren't afraid to speak up against injustice. Those are all good traits to the right kind of women." Little Red Riding Hood receives
LRRH: With that, Mr. Tuna calmed down and the two ended up exchanging business cards so Little Red could arrange dates for Mr. Tuna. Mr. Tuna works at a used car lot. At the quest channel, Little Red said, "Anyone up for a date with Mr. Tuna?" Zoey: XD Sasha: Three more clues for this round, everyone. Given there are eight locations, four rounds, and six clues each round, by the end of four rounds we will only get 24 out of 32 clues. If we spread it evenly, we won't get to the last clue on any suspect. Presumably the last clue is the most important? Sasha: I don't remeber if that was the case for Episode 1. It wasn't. You are not supposed to say that, so they can play Episode 1. Tanya: I see. Ledia: Well... then I search at the crime scene again. Ledia gets clue 241
Ledia: Looking for more clues, Ledia bagged a box of latex gloves found at the construction site. In front of the house, she found fresh tire tracks behind the bushes. "Someone might have stalked the victim here recently. Who can analyze tire tracks?" asked Ledia.
Tanya: @StarTree, please analyze.
StarTree: Wee~!
StarTree: These tires were made exclusively for two models of cars, the Royal, and the Grand!
Sasha: The car in the picture I saw in the video chat with the commander was a Royal. Case closed? XD Tanya: I use my clue for Sasha to follow up on the other general. Sasha: Here we go! Tanya gets clue 98
Sasha: Sasha went to question the other general that lost the promotion. He seemed rather happy that the victim was dead. The general refuses to answer any question, and told Sasha to ask his commander instead.
Sasha: I couldn't get anything from that guy, except he gave me the vibe that he was actually a good guy.
Ledia: Why do you say that?
Sasha: He hangs a liberty or death flag. So at least he has some sense of justice.
Ledia: Unless that means "Liberty for me or death for you."
Sasha: In any case, I feel that he won't give us anything unless we have a warrant. Finally someone who knows the drill. XD Sasha: Last clue for round 3. Who's going to do it? Come on, son, tell us how you got blood all over yourself. Zoey gets clue 212
Zoey: Zoey couldn't shake her suspicion of the son. Every time she tried asking him what happened, he seemed to be able to spin it to another suspect, like that time when he offer to find the DVD then showed and explained why the "terrorist guy" was suspicious. "Am I being too nice to him," Zoey asked on the channel, "He kept on changing the subject. XD"
Ledia: Should I interview him next?
Zoey: But I feel I am so close to getting something out of him. XD
Ledia: Well I will be close by. Sasha: Plot Twist 4, go go go! Sasha: I'll give my Plot Twist 4 for Zoey to RP. Sasha gets Plot Twist 4
Zoey: After ranting at the quest channel, Zoey decided to run a background search of the son and found that two years ago, he went to jail for a few weeks for assaulting his dad. Zoey: May I also get the last clue for the son? XD Zoey gets clue 280
Zoey: Zoey went back to question the son about his scraped knuckles. "I fell off my dirt bike," said the son. "Why were you covered in blood when we arrived?" Zoey asked. "I don't know, I was shocked. I was freaking out." said the son, "I tried to save him but didn't know what to do. He was obviously dead when I got home." As he replied, Zoey noticed the possible reason: The son might have a habit of touching the top of his head and his face when he is confused. "One last thing," said Zoey, "Do you mind if we take a hair sample?" "I guess not."
Zoey: As Zoey puts her gloves, the son panics, "No gloves! I'm allergic to latex!" I think this is as much as the game can do to tell us he is not the murderer. GG. Ledia: I'll finish the search at the crime scene. Ledia gets clue 5
Ledia: In the grass near the flower beds along the driver, Ledia found a military style knife with a 7 inch long blade. Ledia wondered if its user was also wearing gloves when using it. StarTree: Lab! StarTree gets clue 79
StarTree: At the quest channel, StarTree asks the field agents to bring back hair samples for matching. "Ivy is stuck without samples!"
Sasha: I think we need a warrant to get a sample from the lost general.
Ivy: I need hair samples of every suspect, not just those with gray hair. A gray hair can come from someone who does not only have gray hair. And the suspect could have dyed their hair since.
Zoey: I got a hair sample from the son. XD I suppose I did something right. XD But to be clear, my getting the hair sample was pure RP. The clue didn't get a hair sample from the son. XD
Ivy: Good job.
LRRH: Would hair dye smell like food?
Ivy: Generally no, unless you homemake it to smell nice. Ivy receives Sasha: Three clues left! Two more Arcacia Awards for a bonus clue! I don't think someone with problem walking would be a intruder and murderer. LRRH: I don't want to return to Mr. Tuna other than introducing a date. Tanya: There are two suspects that we haven't intervewed: The Carpenter and the Terrorist. LRRH: I will go to the carpenter. Red gets clue 234
LRRH: According to background check, the Carpenter is ex-military and joined a militia. He was a suspected bomber of a post office. Little Red arrived at his home. It seems like he is meeting with someone at the moment. It's a trap. XD The game wants you to waste clues there. Tanya: I pick the general. Tanya gets clue 178
Tanya: Tanya reviewed the chat log when Sasha spoke to the general. In the log, Sasha asked if he complained because the promoted general was of a minority race. But the general dodged the question and never answered.
Sasha: As I said, I couldn't get any answer from him. He neither admited nor denied anything other than he is proud of himself. Sasha: Last clue! No pressure. Evelyn: After getting the last clue, could we make one round of guesses, then reveal the rest of the clues to see if anything else important would be revealed? Sasha: Sure. So far the most important evidences are the hair, the car, and the knife. The general is readily associated with all three. Tuna is associated with two if he dyed his hair, and three if there is a match of that car as one of the used cars he sells. P4: P4 will go check the car lot. P4 gets clue 150
P4: P4 went to the used car lot of Mr. Tuna to look for a Royal, a Grand, or his hair sample. Mr. Tuna does have a nice smell. A smell that is like... Thanksgiving? And then...
P4: One of P4 had a glimpse of a car that might be a match, but it was just leaving the parking lot. Zoey: Let's pray. XD Evelyn: Arcacia, please help us get one more clue. Evelyn receives LRRH: Ike, P4! LRRH receives P4 receives P4 gets bonus clue 141
P4: P4 sped to that car and triple confirmed that it is a Grand. She found that the car wasn't really leaving the parking lot, but was only being relocated in the same lot. The car is for sale.
P4: And the fourth P4 got a hair sample of Mr. Tuna. Ledia: That wasn't as conclusive as I thought it would be. Tanya: There is room left for debate. Sasha: Okay. Here is how we will do it. If you guess right you can get Detective credit. The amount of credits you get is diluted by the number of people who get it right. My guess is Mr. Tuna. Mainly because I don't think a general would bother killing a fellow general over a promotion. Mr. Tuna has much more hatred at the victim, even though he would not actually gain anything from killing him. Ledia: Compelling. Sasha: By the way, I hope that at least one of us get the correct culprit, so please spread out. Zoey: I also choose Mr. Tuna. XD Evelyn: Then I'll choose the general just in case. Sasha: Whoever picked the right answer will have priority RPing the solution. LRRH: I pick the Terrorist guy. I pick the general because he would be familiar with the house, and since none of the clues said the victim fought back or struggled, to me that suggests the victim was usually comfortable being around the murderer. Tanya: I pick the son. Sasha: We have learned the lesson. Individually, each of us might fail, but together, one of us will arrest the right culprit! Zoey: Arrest them all! P4 picks the general, because the smell from Mr. Tuna might be his wife's shampoo. Ivy: Is no one trying to get more bonus clues? Ivy receives We already have three suspects with all clues revealed. Two of them we can't eliminate. If we discount the strength of motive, the clue about hair dye smell might be for eliminating Mr. Tuna, since hair dye doesn't normally smell nice. Ivy: Then I pick the wannabe ganster. StarTree: StarTree picks the carpenter! Sasha: Now, if we want, we can reveal the rest of the clues. I suppose the person who picked that suspect has priority RPing the rest of them. LRRH: I'll start first. Red gets clues 89, 14, 37
LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood easily finds "the Terrorist" at Mr. Carpenter's house. Mr. Terrorist is really a university professor and he was there to discuss with Mr. Carpenter about some renovation for the university. Little Red finds nothing suspicious. StarTree gets clues 63, 101
StarTree: StarTree accompanied Red on her visit to Mr. Carpenter's house. Mr. Carpenter admitted that the awl is his, and there is nothing else of significance to report! Ivy gets clues 220, 268.
Ivy: Ivy confirmed that the meaning of Mr. Dolphin's tattoo. He is missing his first kill to qualify for the gang. Yet, while Evelyn is examining him, Dolphin said he killed the victim. Ivy: Everyone just hold on as I give Evelyn the next clue.
Evelyn: While examing Mr. Dolphin, Evelyn realized that his hands were also trembling. Mr. Dolphin has advanced multiple sclerosis. Despite what he says, she thinks that he is merely trying very hard to fulfill his dream of becoming a gang member. Sasha: Well well well... any final words or wager before the solution is revealed? Sasha: Going once. Sasha: Going twice. Sasha: Reveal! Solution And the murderer was Mr. Tuna! Sasha: Motive: He killed the victim as a revenge. He objected the victim's aggressive tactics during the war which got his fellow soldiers and best friend killed. He couldn't get justice by speaking against him, and his wife left him. His life was ruined despite him actually wanting to return to the military. Sasha: Car Tracks: He drove the Grand to stalk the victim to avoid using his own car. Sasha: Knife: He used the knife to enter the house through the window, and found the victim installing shelves. He intended to kill him with his knife, but decided to use the awl because it can't be traced back to him. He sneaked up to the victim, who hardly any chance to fight back. He dropped his own knife on his way out unintentionally. Sasha: Gray hair: That was his, and his hair dye did smell nice: boiled sage. It wasn't that he dyed his hair immediately after the killing, but that he had some gray hair that creeps up. Sasha: Congratulations, Detectives. We arrested the right person! Sasha: Zoey and I both have half a detective point. Sasha thanks the players.

202212031137|Poverty
202211251119|◀ 2022 DEC 03 SAT 11:37 AM
Wyvern Island

This is a general call for brainstorming regarding the topic of poverty. LRRH: Yesterday I made a node on Solutions and it ended up having almost only ideas from me. It looked weird.

LRRH: I am now at the Poverty solutions section. I want to show that there are different types of solutions depending on different causes of poverty.
Ivy: The sections should be "Poverty by..." where each section corresponds to a cause. In each section, you can then list the solutions types and compare their effecitiveness. LRRH: Okay.
LRRH: This my question: If someone proposes that compassion is a solution to poverty, what kind of cause are they addressing.
Fina: The section you added is "Poverty cased by hoarding." LRRH: I am adding the topic I know and asking about compassion as a solution at the same time.
James: I updated formatting for Freedom Plaza and added Open Court node for double rank up. @Freedom is now Rank C.
LRRH: At Twitter, I have many many bookmarks with content that "could be added" to the blog. How do I go about triaging or deciding what to add?
Evelyn: I think we should first clear the items at @Dungeon camp, otherwise I think they may just stay there forever. 😅
LRRH: For the subject of "Treating science as a religion", is it okay if I make a node on "Scientism" ?
Evelyn: Let's make it together. 🙂 Little Red Riding Hood is now on leash. Evelyn: 😅 202212032008|Scientism Evelyn: I think currently this node would be too offensive to deploy. I think we should just keep it as a node unless we find someone who can benefit from this. LRRH: Okay.
Sasha: Anyone up for NCIS Case 3? Zoey: Is this going to be a daily quest? XD Sasha: We can play as long as we are on track, which is 3 updates per day. We are ahead of schedule. Tanya: If it is only for one round. Sasha: Okay Little Red Riding Hood thanks all for their good work.

Open Court is public venue (which can be virtual) that the public may borrow to conduct trials of justice. Its existence comes from a society that allows different governments to coexist in the same geographical region.
📒 Comparison

The word 'open' refers to the facility being available for the public to borrow, as opposed to a courthouse with fixed judges serving one specific government.

Open Court is...


✔️ Availble to be borrowed

Open Court is not...


❌ Serves a specific government
📒 Why do Open Courts exist?

The following are some factors that cause open courts to be a meaningful solution.

Mixed Society


Societies based on choice democracy in justice need a way to arbitrate conflicts that occur between parties that had chosen different justice model.

Not enough court cases


A mixed society may not have enough court cases for each sub community to have its own courthouse. As a result, they maintain and share one courthouse.
Path to Citizen Enforcement

In the internet age, it no longer takes an authority figure to determine if someone broke the law because video evidence exists and can be crosschecked by the whole town if needed.

Changes needed

1) Open the prosecution process of simple violations so people could just submit, identify, review, and convict violators.
2) Reward people processing/reviewing cases on the open workforce.
3) Communicate the maximum reciprocative countermeasure that the violation allows.

In general safety violations are eligible to be expelled because the community does not have a responsibility to keep itself safe, each individual has a responsibility to not put others in danger. Any individual who does not take the initiatives to protect others from themselves can be expelled. This doesn't mean if they are caught speeding once past someone they get expelled, but the law should have a pathway where that is the eventual countermeasure. If the law doesn't have that pathway the law needs to change or have citizens opt in to waive their reciprocative rights to personal safety. When a city does not enforce safety laws, does not let you enforce it, it is violating your autonomy unless you sign a waiver. The reason why you can expel someone for safety violation has to do with what cities are under autonomy principles. A person who is expelled still own their share of resources and can join a city where speed limits are higher. It is about grouping people who want to go fast without helmet together. The "reward" for the city that accepts high speed no helmet people is that essential they get the endorsement of that population to maintain its city size.

202212032152|Case 3: Plot Twist 1
202212031137|◀ 2022 DEC 03 SAT 9:52 PM
Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 3 Plot Twist 1!!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 1
Sasha: The Wife of a basketball superstar is found shot dead in the kitchen at her home. The basketball superstar husband is next to her in grief. A holster is found on scene, but not the gun. Sasha: The choices are: 1) Crime Scene; 2) Headquarters; 3) Husband; 4) One of five other suspects. Zoey: I'll start with the crime scene. Zoey gets clue 15
Zoey: After what happened at the last episode, Zoey decided that she is probably more comfortable dealing with the environment than with people. So this time, she started with searching the premises for clues. Through the yard there were fresh tire tracks of a U-turn. "How horrible!" said a woman, "Our expensive bluegrass is ruined!"
Zoey: In her mind, Zoey's detector went ding ding ding ding. Her comment seems so out of place. She better be someone who has no idea what happened in this house. it turns that that the woman is the secretary of the basketball superstar husband. Zoey: I think the game intentionally makes everyone suspicious, at least in the beginning. XD Sasha: Now the choices are: 1) Headquarters, 2) Husband, 3) Secretary, and 4) Another suspect. Tanya: The husband Tanya gets clue 58
Tanya: Interviewing people had never been Tanya's forte. so she decided that she needs more practice. "We are very sorry about your loss, Mr. Rockneck, "I have seen you and your wife together many times in sports interviews. You looked very much in love." Mr. Rockneck has just broken his silent grief to asked about the wife's sister, "Have you..." when his secretary interrupted him. I assume that the husband is trying to ask whether we have notified the victim's sister of her death. Sasha: Now the choices are: 1) Headquarters, 2) Secretary, 3) Victim's Sister, and 4) Another suspect. Ledia: Let's see if we get the sequence right. I choose the Secretary. Ledia gets clue 104
Ledia: Ledia was there when the Secretary interrupted the Husband. "You can talk to me instead," the Secretary said to Tanya, "I am in charge now." To which, the husband protested, "What do you mean you are in charge? You are just a pretty garden gnome!" The Secretary winced. Tanya said to the Secretary, "Please come with me to the other room." Ledia: Perfect sequence. Tanya: I think someone needs to break the news to the wife's sister. LRRH: I will do that with Sirius. Little Red gets clue 167
LRRH: Searching upstairs, Little Red found an untidy guest room where clothings are laying about, as if someone had just packed up and left in a hurry. Under the bed, there was a will in an open envelope addressed to the wife's sister. Sasha: Choices: 1) Headquarters, 2) Another suspect Evelyn: Headquarters please. Evelyn gets clue 258
Evelyn: At the headquarters, Evelyn confirmed that the cause of death was a single bullet wound at her cranium.
Ivy: This type of bullet is typically used in law enforcement. Sasha: Okay, we can get one more clue before getting plot twist 2. The choices are 1) Rockneck's old friend, 2) A loan shark, 3) A Rockneck fan. Zoey: Who is still up? XD P4: P4 picks the shark. P4 gets clue 21
P4: P4 is learning oracle skills with mom. What do you see, P4? P4 sees someone holding on to a golden egg and trying to keep people's mouths shut. P4 receives Zoey: What? XD Tanya: Some clues are like that. They are foreshadows. P4 is recognized for the skill Foreshadow. Tanya receives Ledia: The Arcacian Force is strong with this one. Ledia receives Zoey: It better not be a spoiler. XD Zoey receives Sasha: That's all for today, detectives. Plrease return for the next plot twist! Sasha thanks the players.

202212041134|Twitter Workflow
202212031137|◀ 2022 DEC 04 SUN 11:34 AM
Wyvern Island

At Twitter there are many bookmarks with contents that can be added to the blog. What is a good strategy to add them?

LRRH: This is the current process: When people reply, I get notifications. I bookmark every notification relevant to blog content.
LRRH: Then I look at the bookmarks and pick some to reply. When a bookmark is taken care of, I remove the bookmark.
LRRH: Then people reply to that and the loop continues. There are more bookmarks than I can reply. Evelyn: I think Red's guild score is underestimated because she is not getting enough points for replying. LRRH: I don't think each reply is worth a point. I get a point when I can relate it in the blog.
Tanya: How many bookmarks do you have now since yesterday? LRRH: 21 Tanya: And the day before? LRRH: 19
Tanya: Conceptually, you want to be able to clear at least all bookmarks more you post. So the order of event should be:
Tanya: You process bookmarked items to the blog first. When that happens, you remove the bookmark.
Tanya: When you have caught up in terms of bookmarks, then you post new content from the blog to Twitter. LRRH: Okay.
LRRH: So this is one of the thread on Poverty. The context: I was discussing about compassion, and discovered that someone, when they promote compassion, what they seem to mean is that if you are poor, you are the only one responsible to do better. That was somewhat shocking. Tweet Evelyn: But they also say that they don't support having no welfare. I am confused. LRRH: I think they are double speaking. Tanya: I think we can add a section to Compassionism node to diistinguish what we mean and what others may mean. 202209020848|🐣 Compassionism LRRH: I have a question. If I remove a bookmark after addressing it in the blog, how do I know which tweet to reply when I deploy the content. Tanya: The link should be in the blog already. LRRH: Does that mean there is no way but to add every bookmark as a link in the blog. Tanya: That was what I meant by the sighting section. You add all the links there from bookmarks. That means you don't need to bookmark them if you can add them directly. LRRH: Hmm... Zoey: That seems like a lot of work, to be honest. XD Tanya: I think that is better than repeating the same topic to no effect. LRRH: Instead of adding the link to the Blog, can I just add the link to Guild Log? Tanya: I think that is up to you, but you will still need to add them to the blog because you need to cite them for the reader. And I would think it is easier to group them in the blog. LRRH: Hmm... I need a cache for the Sighting board. Archive 1 is too slow. Tanya: @StarTree please make a cache that combines the Sighting Board to Deployment areas. StarTree: Done!
LRRH: So if I understand correctly, you want me to list all bookmarks since yesterday to the sighting board and remove the bookmark.
Tanya: Please also include a short description of its content. LRRH: Okay I'll try. Little Red added 14 links. Little Red Riding Hood is recognized as a Puller.
LRRH: It turned out to be not too difficult. Tanya: I added a date 20221203 because that is the date we should clear up to the next time. LRRH: Okay. LRRH: So should I start updating Compassionism node?
Tanya: The next step I recommend is that you define an asset in the staging area, which defines what section to add in the blog that will address the sightings. LRRH: Okay. LRRH: Now the staging are is very full. Tanya: Now we nuke them.
Tanya: After grouping them in the staging area, it is easy for anyone to add content to the blog. LRRH: That's true.
Zoey: I'll take poverty.
Tanya: @StarTree please take a screenshot of the staging area for record. StarTree: Done!
Zoey: Poverty casused by a victimization mindset is not poverty in our definition. Is that correct? Zoey: I am refering to Mag's comment. In our definition, poverty does not including a victim mindset. Evelyn: What do you mean by a victim mindset? Zoey: Learned helplessness. Evelyn: I think that would qualified as "trapped", and we have solutions for that, so I think it is part of poverty. Zoey: Okay. Added. Zoey receives Zoey is recognized for the Fire Magic Encouragement. Zoey deployed the new sections of the poverty node.
Evelyn: Regarding the difference in definition of compassion, I don't think Michael has a different definition. I think it is a misunderstanding. LRRH: But he confirmed that our definitions are different. Evelyn: Ok. 😅
Evelyn: I read it again and I still think that there is a misunderstanding. I don't think Michael is talking about a different definition. I think he misunderstood the context. Evelyn: I think he is imagining a situation where Ann believes that she is compassionate, and you are trying to judge that she is not. Evelyn: So if you present there to be two definition, it won't make sense. Evelyn: I think we need to keep asking questions to clarify. LRRH: Okay. Now asking.
Evelyn: Is there a reason why we care if compassion is defined at the motivation of the result? LRRH: I think that is the meaning and if it is defined at the result, we already have words like "helpful" and "beneficial". Evelyn: Okay. I think it might help if we list other motivations. LRRH: Good idea.
LRRH: I read Michael's reply. I think it is just a case of definition creep. It is a logical fallacy of composition/division and moving the goal post. Evelyn: I don't think we need to address that as an alternate definition of compassion. Tanya: That is content for LogFall Dungeon proper.
LRRH: Do we have a go deploying a node on logical fallacies? Evelyn: I think we can first create the node then tone it down. I think we should deploy them because those fallacies would cloud people's vision.
Tanya: Let's do Special Pleading / Moving the Goal Post. 202208011030|Special Pleading
LRRH: I think it is not special pleading, but an effect of anchoring bias. We either present it as a fallacy, or we take their word for it and present it as a definition. Evelyn: Maybe we have to present it as a definition after all. 😅 LRRH: But we can do it in a Logfall node instead of the compassion node. Tanya: How about as an indoctrination tactic? LRRH: Terminology appropriation? Tanya: Yes. Evelyn: I think deploying it from that section would be even worse. 😅 Evelyn: Maybe we can start with a Venn diagram to confirm the difference between rights and compassion? LRRH: Then let's start with Black-or-white, and use compassions as an example. In black-or-white thinking, there are only two kinds of actions. When a person has black-or-white thinking, they can end up with definitions like Michael is using. Evelyn: I think that using that node is much better and can be educational.😊 202208011038| Black-or-white
LRRH: So, can I deploy the Black-or-white node? Evelyn: I think Effect 4 is the most problematic so I reworded it a little bit. LRRH: Do you want to rewrite it and put your avatar? I think if I write the whole thing, it gets too hot. Zoey: XD Evelyn: Okay. 😅
Evelyn: I think we also need a solution section. Tanya: Agreed.
LRRH: So at this point, I first make a Twitter thread on Black-or-white fallacy, then I can reply by linking to it. Tanya: Yes. LRRH: I think Evelyn's solution section should go first because her tone is more helpful. Evelyn: 😊 Zoey: It is better to cast make things wet so they don't catch fire than to let them burn then put out the fire. XD Evelyn casts Protect for everyone. Little Red Tweeted.
LRRH: So now I reply to the two tweets by linking to my thread. Tanya: Yes. Little Red feels like she has done enough today. Little Red things all for the help.

Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 3 Plot Twist 2!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 2
Sasha: Back at the headquarters, Sasha called the victim's police department to see if there has been any missing handgun reported. To her surprise, a gun matching Ivy's report was found in a dumpster behind the Shark Club. "How did you find it?" asked Sasha. The sergeant said over the phone, "Anonyomous tip by a disguised voice. Said they saw a man about 6 feet, 230 lbs, in his 50s." Sasha: With that, the choices are: 1) Crimes scene, 2) Headquarters, 3) Husband, 4) Secretary, 5) Victim's Sister, 6) Shark Club, 7) Another suspect. Zoey: Crime scene. Zoey gets clue 272
Zoey: Zoey received report from Ivy that the victim's hair had threads of very rare silk, and asked her to look for evidence made of silk, such as from a scarf or a well-tailored suit. Zoey: Who wants to investigate the club or another suspect? The second half of my clue jumps there. XD P4: P4 will go to the shark club. P4 gets clue 53
P4: P4 follows her vision to the Shark Club to see the dumpster where the gun was said to be found. Outside the club was a Hummer. P4 sends swabs of the Hummer back to the lab while waiting for the Club to open at 10 PM. Just then the door opens. A man comes out and drives off. P4: Lab is packed with evidence from clue 53. Ivy: I take Headquarters. Ivy gets clue 222
Ivy: At the lab, Ivy confirmed that the tire track mold and residue from P4 matched those from the lawn at the crime scene. The license plate is registered under Mr. Shark, the owner of the Shark Club. "This is enough probable cause to enter with a warrant," Ivy said on the channel. Ivy: By the way, there was nothing new in 222 that wasn't already in clue 53. Zoey: What is that supposed to mean? There are redundant clues. Ledia: There were also useless clues. I talk to the Husband Ledia gets clue 116
Ledia: After Tanya and the Secretary left to another room. Ledia asked Mr. Rockneck to continue. He said the sister stayed in the guest room last night but had a heated argument with the victim over their father's will. The sister thought she got the short end of the will. The holster that was found near the victim looked like the sister's, who is a sergeant at the PD.
Sasha: I think the sergeant who mentioned an anonymous tip and the sister might be the same person.
Zoey: So it wasn't lost. She has it.
Ledia: Where is the gun now?
💡 Evelyn: I think if she has the gun, she could have lied and said it was not found. Tanya: I think for readability, we should use Chat only for the clues and bubble for our thoughts. Evelyn: Sorry. 😖 I think there is no point talking to the secretary. Does Red want to talk to the sister first? LRRH: Okay. Little Red gets clue 8
LRRH: Little Red rode Sirius to the PD to break the news to Sergeant Sister who is on duty. She was shocked, but found some comfort from Sirius. "The Sister doesn't seem like the murderer," Little Red said on the channel Zoey: That's all? Did you get the gun? LRRH: The sister is still crying. it feels mean to ask. Red receives Sasha: Last clue of this round. Choices: 1) Secretary, 2) Another suspect. Ledia: @Evelyn? @Tanya? Tanya: I am sticking with the Secretary, but not this round. Evelyn: Then I'll take another suspect. Evelyn gets clue 44 Evelyn: It is a foreshadow. What do I do? 😅 Tanya: If you don't want to do divination, you could just narrate without mentioning yourself.
Evelyn: From the channel, it seemed that both the husband and the sister really liked the victim. "Maybe I should try bringing her back," thought Evelyn. As she dozed off at the headquarters, she saw a man in a cast drinking alone by the window in a room. "I'll make them all pay for what they have done to me. I'll take them all down if I have to," the man mumbled as he turned into a fire-breathing dragon. Evelyn is recognized for the skill Divination. Evelyn receives Ledia: Interesting. Zoey: It is a divination showndown. XD Sasha: And that's all for round 2! Please return for Plot Twist 3! Sasha: By the way, if you have comments about the game, please add to the node. Sasha thanks the players.

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 3 Plot Twist 3!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 3
Sasha: For those who are on edge, we got the gun. It is being examined in the lab. On the other hand, we got a call from the Secretary that Mr. Rockneck is stressed out and thinks that he might lose his wife's sister also. Ivy: I'll start with the lab. Ivy gets clue 196
Ivy: The gun allegedly found at the dumpster is the murder weapon. The serial number of the gun was patially filed off. With what remains, I narrowed it down to four numbers to four potential owners. One of them is the Sister Sergeant. Is she schizophrenic? XD Ledia: That's it. If Red says she isn't the murderer, then she must be the murderer. I am going to ask her for her own gun. Ledia gets clue 30
Ledia: Ledia went to the PD to confront the Sergeant. The Sergeant confessed that she lied. But she said on the night she had an argument with the victim, she just stormed out. "When I realized my gun was missing, I panicked," said the Sergeant, "Especially after what happened." Ledia was about to bring her back to HQ when a cellphone rang. The clue didn't say whose phone is ringing. Zoey: Better not be a second victim. I think I need to know if there is forced entry to the house. I search at the crime scene again. Zoey gets clue 36 Zoey: I think we missed a clue. If someone is planning to get a clue from the "dragon", maybe they should go first. Evelyn: I'll get a clue for the dragon. Evelyn gets clue 145
Evelyn: Evelyn woke up forgetting most of what she dreamt about except a feeling that she dreamt about a friend of Mr. Rockneck. Evelyn searched the records and asked Zoey to ask Mr. Rockneck about Mr. Dragon. "Mr. Dragon was also a basketball star, but was recently arrested on gambling charges and disorderly conduct," said Evelyn, "Could you talk to Mr. Rockneck to see how close they are as friends?" Zoey: I think we are still a clue behind... I'll give my clue, which isn't much really.
Zoey: At the Rockneck house, Zoey asked Mr. Rockneck about Mr. Dragon. "Sure, he still comes over here sometimes, We talk about old times." the husband said. Zoey: I decided not to say everything in the clue because it doesn't make sense in our sequence. Ledia: Hmm... In the clue, Gibbs is asking the suspect whether they only meet by themselves. Just the two of them. I don't understand why Gibbs would ask that. I don't know how to roleplay that in my character. Maybe he is trying to see if there is a love triangle? Zoey: 🤔 I don't think so. P4: P4 thinks the Shark Club is open and wants to go in. P4 gets clue 210 P4: Who wants to burst into the Shark Club and take the owner? Zoey: Why? Is there a fight scene? XD P4: P4 thinks an adult should serve a warrant. Ledia: Don't you want to be recognized for having served a warrant? P4: P4 is an assassin. P4 is not supposed to show her face in public. Ledia: Do you want a disguise skill?
P4: Back at the headquarters, Ivy gave the warrant to P4. P4 was confused, "Who is serving it?" "You're right. What was I thinking?" Ivy facepalms herself, "Please ask my dad."
James: James bursts into the Shark Club and confronts the owner, Mr. Shark. "Where were you last night?" asks James. "Right here," says the Shark. James takes the Shark into custody.
P4: Meanwhile, P4 searches Mr. Shark's office, where she finds print-outs of Mr. Rockneck's most recent basketball games with numbers written on top, a backpack with $300K inside, and a book titled, "Master and Commander: How to share Power Equally in a Relationship." Zoey: Is that James not going to turn back into P4? XD I think it would be illegal to serve a warrant in a disguise. Zoey: Aww... It's all serious. XD Sasha: Okay, last clue of round 3. Choices are 1) Mr. Rockneck, 2) The Secretary, 3) Another suspect. James: Another suspect. James gets clue 128
James: James, having heard that the team might be stuck finding the motive of the murder, asked the victim's husband if he knew of anyone who might want his wife dead. Rockneck said, there was a woman who started stalking him since he became famous. She threatened the wife once, and was locked up in an asylum until recently. The wife was terrified that this might happen. James calls HQ to check up on this stalker, as Mr. Shark arrives in custody. Evelyn: ... 😅 Ivy: Dad!! Chill, Ivy. This is not illegal. This is delegation. Zoey: XD P4 is recognized for Disguise. P4 is recognized for Having Served a Warrant. P4 receives James receives Ledia: Nice! P4 thanks Ledia for the encouragement. Sasha: Looks like we are starting to have our own plot twists! Please return for the last plot twist of this case! Sasha receives Sasha thanks the players.

202212060947|Node calendar
202211230925|◀ 2022 DEC 06 TUE 9:47 AM
Magic Bakery

December calendar is now a node! There should be no apparent difference when you browse except the December calendar page will be deleted! StarTree: Its ID is not displayed, but calendar node ID's will have the format PYYYYMM000000!

StarTree: The reason for this change now is that Evelyn asked about it! StarTree: Another reason for this change is that Ivy said we should move everything to nodes except content that we want to present as an article!
Ivy: The reason is that the calendars are flooding the actual front page of the blog. So I think it is better to remove all of them. We could move all of them to Blogger Pages, but it is easier to archive if calendars are nodes.
Evelyn: I asked about it because I want to import old posts for the calendar. I know I can import regardless where the calendar is. I asked StarTree what it takes to change to using node starting January 2023. Thank you for making the change overnight! StarTree: Wee~~! Ledia: So was it easy to change to node? StarTree: StarTree got 9 points for doing that! Ivy: StarTree is already familiar with some of the bugs related to the calendar and was able to fix them quickly. StarTree: StarTree made a copy thinking it will take a few days to change, but it seems okay so StarTree connected it to the actual calendar! November 2022 is still a post!
Vivi: If you are changing all of them to node, could you start with January 2022? That calendar is the most broken. StarTree: Roger! Evelyn thanks StarTree for the upgrade.

Ledia: "A big tree. When I want, can bloom flowers, call birds, squirrels to play with me. Storm proof." Gaia receives
Ledia: "Leaves will shed but grows back. 🤪"
3B: I am picturing a giant version of StarTree whose leave can change color.
Zoey: What about a walking treehouse?
Ledia: In case it isn't clear to others, ideas are welcome.
Fina: Then why not be the world tree? The world tree is Gaia and we can design a walking avatar.
Zoey: Yes, that is what we need. We need a world tree that we can talk to and play with. Fina receives
3B: Give me some time to think about it.
Ledia: In the meantime I will update the roster so there will be a link to this thread. Gaia is now on the roster.

Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 3 Plot Twist 4!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 4
Sasha: At the headquarters, Sasha analyzed the betting sheets found at Shark's office. They were all games where Rockneck missed key shots causing his team to lose to underdog teams. Mr. Shark confessed that he was there the night the victim died, but he said as soon as he found the body, he left. Mr. Shark said he was trying to help Rockneck with his debts. Ledia: I think Shark has no motive to kill the victim. He is using Rockneck to make money. When the victim dies, what happens to her share from the will? Does it go to the husband or the sister? Ledia: I would think the husband. I think we are missing the evidene connecting the victim to the murderer. We need to find the source of the silk thread. Do you think that is something the Secretary will have? Sasha: Quite possible. Tanya: I pick the headquarters for test results. Tanya gets clue 247
Tanya: Tanya asked the victim's PD dispatcher for the copy of the anonymous tip, and asked StarTree to analyze the recording.
StarTree: The voice was disguised using a smart phone app! The original voice sounds like a woman! The three female suspects are the Sister Sergeant, the Secretary, and the Fan Stalker Ledia: The person who called is not necessarily the murderer. I would think normally if you are just a stranger caller you won't need to disguise your voice. Not if you know who did it. Ledia: I'll finish the last clue with the Sister. Ledia gets clue 283
Ledia: Back at the PD, Ledia was about to take the Sergeant back to headquarters when her phone rang. It was from Evelyn.
Evelyn: Ledia, I pinpointed the time of death through livor mortis. It was 9 PM.
Ledia: "Where were you at 9 PM?" Ledia asks the Sister. "I was in a shift meeting after I left from the argument." "Can you prove that?" "Yes." Ledia: There you go, Zoey. Zoey: Alibi. XD Sasha: Okay. So we have two other female suspects that we know almost nothing about. Ivy: I talk to the stalker. Ivy gets clue 78
Ivy: Ivy went to the mental health facility where the alledged stalker is an out-patient. The nurse said, "She was released a month ago, now on a closely supervised outpatient program. She should be here within the hour for her daily pick-up of medication." Zoey: We are so behind. XD P4: P4 sings. P4 receives Zoey: Zoey sings. Zoey receives Sasha: We still have three free clues. Zoey: The crime scene. Wish me luck XD Zoey gets clue 110 Zoey: Okay. My clue mentions something we didn't know about the Secretary. Anyone wants to do that first? Evelyn: I take the Secretary clue. Evelyn gets clue 68
Evelyn: In the first interview, after the Secretary interrupted Mr. Rockneck, Tanya brought the Secretary to another room.
Tanya: "Forgive me for saying so, but you don't seem very distraught over the murder." said Tanya. The secretary said, "You are right, I'm not exactly upset. The money is too good here, in fact I expect things to be better around here now. It would be funny if that stalker is the murderer." Evelyn: Evelyn sings. Evelyn receives Sasha: Last free clue. 1) Husband, 2) Shark, 3) Dragon P4: Shark. P4 sings again. P4 receives Sasha: It might be a Magic Detective tradition that when a case gets tough, the detectives burst into singing. Zoey: That's how we roll! XD P4 gets clue 93
P4: While Sasha was interrogating Mr. Shark. Ivy, P4, and Evelyn were looking at the stuff P4 brought back from his office as evidence.
Ivy: Isn't it odd that a man like him would own a self-help book?
Evelyn: Is it? 😅
Ivy: And this backpack. I don't think it is his... Ivy receives
Sasha: Meanwhile in the interrogation room, Sasha got Shark to confess on game fixing. "Okay, so we fixed a few games, but I have no idea who killed Rockneck's wife." "Who is 'we'?" Sasha demanded an answer. The Shark said, "Besides Rockneck, Dragon is our muscle and the Gnome girl made drops." P4: What does "make drop" mean? Ledia: It means she delivers things. Zoey: She is Red on the other team. XD LRRH: 🐣 Zoey: Okay. According to my clue, the next clue from the Secretary will be that she bought the book. Because of that, I returned to the crime scene and found a box of discarded stationery that has a printed logo, "From the Rockneck household:" below that listed the firstnames of THREE people: The husband, the wife, and the secretary. I also found a credit card receipt from the trash. That is the last clue from the crime scene. Tanya: Could you put the part that you could have found by yourself in CHAT? Zoey: Okay.
Zoey: At the crime scene, Zoey found a discarded box of new stationery. The odd thing was that it had a printed logo "From the Rockneck Household", below that listed the firstnames of three people: Mr. Rockneck, his wife, and the secretary. Deeper in the trash was a credit card receipt. What is the point of the stationery? Are they reality TV stars or something? It sounds like something the secretary might order? Sasha: Right now we have one bonus clue, and we are one Arcacia Award short of another. Ledia: Ledia sings. Ledia receives Ledia: By the way, Magic Bakery now has a public youtube playlist of our selected anime songs. Sasha: May you add "Arcacianism" to the description to see if it will be searchable? LRRH: Done. Sasha: Okay, I misspoke. We are three AA short of getting the third bonus. The orignal game said it is impossible to get more than three bonus. I think we should keep that constraint. Ledia: In any case we can only get to the last clue of just one more suspect. Zoey: This is hard. XD What if the receipt is for buying a scarf? Ledia: How do we decide how to use the clue? Sasha: There is no defined rule. You could go again if you want. Well, if we meta game it, the last few clues were mostly about the four people in the game fixing group. I say we go all the way with the secretary. Suppose the murderer is the secretary, revealing her clues will not tell us that she is the murderer, because the game will leave at least one other possible suspect. I think if we keep going we will understand how the clues are related. The bag has $300K in it. If that is her bag, is she giving it to someone, or is she about to receive it? Sasha: I see two votes for the Secretary. I think we are not necessarily just choosing a card based on the suspect, but a card that can give us information. Ivy: Which suspect would you pick to get a clue from? Evelyn: I don't know. 😖 Zoey: I think we have a better chance of getting negative proof if we go all the way with the stalker. Zoey receives If we go all the way with the stalker, we might end up with only three possible suspects instead of four. Tanya: We would have one spare clue if we get two more Arcacia Award. Sasha: Sasha sings. Sasha receives Sasha: Do I see a 2 v 2 or is there no conflict? Tanya: I think there is no conflict, we can continue with the stalker first. Sasha: I'll give that clue to Ivy, because she is waiting there. Hold on. Isn't Ivy at HQ looking at evidence? XD Why is she also at the mental health center? Ivy: *Facepalm*. Normally I wouldn't go visit the facility in person. I would have at least called first. Most likely not even that. Ivy: I just read from the clue. Ledia: But you did choose to talk to the stalker. What were you thinking? Ivy: Because dad told me to go. I think you can still review evidence over the channel while you are waiting at the facility. Evelyn receives Ledia: Nice save! Zoey: Now we know who is better at making excuses. XD Evelyn: 😖 Ivy: I take the stalker again. Ivy takes bonus clue 86 Zoey: The channel just happens to be playing the song from 86. XD
Ivy: Ivy was commenting on the evidence that P4 brought to HQ while waiting for the Stalker at the mental health facility. "I should have stayed at HQ and asked Red to come instead," Ivy thought, "Maybe it is not too late to switch." At that moment, Ivy's self-lamenting was interrupted by a rather annoying female voice talking on a phone. "She's gone! you know, she's gone! Rockneck can marry me now! Can you call him to come pick me up?" Ivy switches on recording for StarTree. Sasha: Two bonus clues left. Doesn't the stalker seem like an honest person? Yes, I say we go all the way with the stalker. XD Tanya: I agree. StarTree: StarTree picks the stalker again. StarTree gets bonus clue 185
StarTree: StarTree got the call from Ivy and sent Red to bring the Stalker back to HQ.
LRRH: "It was she who made Rockneck get the restraining order on me," the Stalker said, "But I was good, I only watched. And I saw everything! Can you call him now?" Little Red asked, "What did you see?" "I saw her came that night with a package. The wife made her angry again! She got what she deserved." "Who is 'she'?" "I won't tell until you call Rockneck." If she it right then the murder can only be the secretary. Tanya's plan is working. XD It might be working for the game, but our story will make no sense if we intentionally don't follow the probable suspect. Tanya: Let's continue first. We still have one clue left. The Stalker didn't exactly say she saw the murder. And since we cannot go all the way with the Secretary, if we choose the secretary we will only get a clue that we already know. LRRH: We haven't heard from Mr. Dragon the whole game. Zoey: Let's choose Mr. Dragon. XD Zoey gets clue 123 Zoey: I'll give that clue to Evelyn or Red.
Evelyn: After receiving Zoey's report that Mr. Rockneck and Mr. Dragon are good friends, Evelyn decided to follower her vision to see Mr. Dragon, who was in a rehab facility. As Mr. Dragon came in crutches, Evelyn remembered in her dream, the friend had a casting also. Evelyn told him that she was brough there by a vision that she might be able to help him as a healer, an asked to see his broken leg. While doing so, Evelyn ask him how his leg was broken. Mr. Dragon said, "Don't remember. I was too drunk." Sasha: Okay, folks! Time to decide your suspect! Zoey: Is it really necessary to spread out? Can't we just all win and level up? Evelyn: I actually like the idea of spreading out, I think it is less stressful. 😅 I pick Mr. Dragon. LRRH: I pick the Stalker. Zoey: Instead of splitting the credit, could everyone who guesses right just get 1 point? Sasha: That doesn't account for when a case is simple. Zoey: Well, the good detective should be able to get the simple cases also. XD Ledia: Compelling. Sasha: But then who will be our backup if our main guess is wrong? Zoey: You could just say the Hospitalian Knights got the correct suspect if that makes you feel better. XD Ledia: Also compelling. Sasha: Okay. So in this case, who wouldn't pick the Secretary? Evelyn: The Secretary does seem the most suspicious. 😅 Especially after questioning the Stalker. I think she is a credible witness. Sasha: So are you all okay if it turns out to be someone else? It will go on record as a TPK. Evelyn: I would rather prevent a TPK than to be right myself. 😅 Sasha: I will cover the Sergeant, in case she lied about the Alibi. P4: P4 will follow the Shark. Ivy: I think my dad can cover the Stalker if Red wants to cover the husband. LRRH: Ok StarTree: StarTree picks the Secretary, Wee~! Sasha: Okay, now we have 5 people on the Secretary. If she is the culprit, those 5 people get 0.2 points each, and Zoey will take the lead with 0.7 points. Sasha: We can now see the rest of the clues, starting with the husband. Little Red gets clue 133 and 154
LRRH: The clues we didn't get to are: Mr. Rockneck said he has always been mean to the secretary. He said the secretary only thinks about herself and that gets old. The wife wanted to fire her but he couldn't bring himself to. Next, when Mr. Rockneck was asked whether he tried to kill his wife because she would expose his game fixing, he said that he loves his wife, like "a master and commander". When he was asked about that phrase, he said as a matter of fact that that is the title of a book and everyone who knows the wife knew that book, and he saw the secretary has a copy once. LRRH: That was it. The clue about firing is important. Sasha: Next let's reveal the remaining clue for Dragon. Evelyn gets clue 265 Evelyn: I'm going to RP this part. 😅
Evelyn: Evelyn examined Mr. Dragon's leg, but determined that it wasn't an ordinary injury. There is a curse. Evelyn decided to return to think more about it. That night, Evelyn had another dream. Mr. Rockneck is pushing Mr. Dragon in a wheelchair. "If you tell anyone, my friends will kill you," Mr. Rockneck whispered, "It was hard, I know. I tried to tell Shark not to bust your leg, but I can't protect you anymore, considering how much you let slip during that party. At least you are still alive."
LRRH: I forgot to mention that on the night of the murder, Mr. Rockneck was in a basketball game and his team lost. That was part of his third clue. That is important. Zoey: I would say this case makes more sense than the last one. XD Sasha: Now let's reveal the remaining clues for the Secretary. I will give them to StarTree StarTree gets clues 173 and 232
StarTree: The third clue is when the Secretary called our headquarters to arrange a meeting. At a meeting with her, she said she wanted to distant Rockneck and his friends, because she thinks that they have a scheme related to the victim's murder. Then her phone rang, but she looked at the number and hung up.
StarTree: The last clue is that the lab traced the barcode on the book from Shark's office to a purchase online by credit card owned by the secretary. The secretary was questioned, and said she bought a copy because the victim kept talking about it, but she didn't like that book. What about the silk threads... Sasha: Probably in the solution. Solution It is the Secretary! Sasha: Motive: The Secretary wants money to support her own lavish lifestyle, and tried to make herself important in the Rockneck household so that they cannot be without her. When she overheard the game-fixing scheme, she wanted to be part of it. However, her sense of self-important was hated by the wife, especially when the secretary ordered letterhead including herself as part of the household. The wife threw that into the trash. That night, the secretary saw the gun the sister left and killed the wife out of anger. Sasha: Shortly after: The secretary decided to frame Shark because she knew the game-fixing scheme will probably end anyway. Sasha: The solution did not mention who made the call and what the silk was about. I think it is implied that the secretary called the PD about the gun and somehow left silk threads on the victim. Sasha: One thing of note is that the solution gave kudos to those who observed the Stalker would be a credible witness. Congratulation to Red and Ledia, you have received "kudoes for your NCIS detective abilities"! Sasha: Current scores: 0.7 points: Zoey. 0.5 points: Sasha. 0.2 points: StarTree, Ledia, Tanya, Ivy. Sasha: Please return for the next case! Sasha thanks the players.

Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 4 Plot Twist 1!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 1
Sasha: A murder has been discovered at the restroom of a bar. The victim has been identified. Who wants to investigate? Sasha: The choices for clues are: 1) Crime scene, 2) HQ, 3) The Bartender who called, 4) Victim's Wife, 5) Victim's Son, and 6) Another suspect. Ledia: I think starting at the crime scene would be normal. Ledia gets clue 87 (Crime Scene 1) Ledia: That was meant to be a comment. But I'll take the clue. Sasha: First come first serve. Ledia: Hmm... The clue said absolutely nothing important.
Ledia: Ledia is on scene now. Zoey: XD Really? So I was thinking, if we want to be efficient with this game, we would intentionally skip the bartender because most likely he will just say something that introduce us to the other suspects. But in the game we could skip ahead to other suspects. We might be able to also skip the crime scene. Since most of the time the lab will mention what we found at the crime scene. Ledia: Wouldn't that be really confusing? The storyline will be scrambled. Tanya: You could consider that part of the challenge. Evelyn: I think finding the intended sequence is part of the fun for Ledia. Zoey: But that didn't work very well just now? Ledia got a clue with nothing in it. Ledia: But the content of that clue seems to be in the correct chronological order. Sasha: Do we have a problem? Evelyn: I think we are trying to see if we should try to follow a story order or try to skip ahead. Sasha: I think you can just do what you want? Evelyn: But if I choose one way or the other, it spoils the fun for the other. 😅 Sasha: In any case we are only talking about skipping the crime scene and the bartender. Will that really change the story that much? Evelyn: I guess not...? 😅 Ledia: My objection to that was, if we skip ahead, we will get more situations where we don't know what the clues mean. We already got situations in the last game where we wait for someone else to pick a clue before RPing our own clue. Zoey: I don't think that was a good example. If we did spread out then it wouldn't happen. The game expected us to spread out. Sasha: So. What type of solution do we want? Split the game for two teams? Alternate the play style? Evelyn: Can we try to get a clue from each location? StarTree: StarTree wants to get a clue from HQ. StarTree gets clue 285 (HQ 1)
StarTree: StarTree wishes the detectives good luck! StarTree: StarTree also got a useless clue! Ledia: Could it be that this case is just shorter, so the designers ran out of things to put? Evelyn: Bartender please. 🙏 Evelyn gets clue 166 (Bartender 1)
Evelyn: Evelyn arrived on scene to talk to the bartender. The victim was a regular customer which the bartender knew him by name. The bartender said he found the body while closing up. There was a lot of blood but no knife. According to the bartender, the victim never caused any trouble, except unpaid bar tab. I should also mention that the bar seems to be in a dangerous district. Zoey: That didn't actually tell us much did it? Evelyn: I guess that's true. 😅 Zoey: So even the game is driving us to do the "efficient" way. I'm going to pick "another suspect" XD Zoey gets clue 120 (Toadstool 1)
Zoey: "Seems dangerous" was a little understated, Zoey said on the channel, that area is known for corruption where drug lords try to control the government. One of those drug lords is Mr. Toadstool. However, those corruption is being kept at bay due to a neighboring country giving support. Our victim happens to be from that neighboring country. I am sold. We have at least a motive there. Tanya: The other another suspect. Tanya gets clue 112 (Viper 1)
Tanya: Tanya watched the surrounding quietly and noticed a man with a glass eye that has a profile at Hospitalian Knights database. That man, Viper, is a runner for the drug lord Toadstool. It is rumored that he lost an eye as a punishment, and he has been looking for opportunities to prove himself since. Sasha: Last clue for round 1. Choices are 1) Victim's wife, 2) Victim's son, 3) Another suspect. Casey: Another suspect. Casey gets clue 96 (Daisy 1)
Casey: Casey happens to be questing nearby and saw the team on a case. Sitting with Ledia, they overheard a conversation between the bartender and a pretty woman. The woman asked about the victim, and the bartender said he will be back tomorrow. At that, the woman looked surprised and left.
Ledia: Ledia asked the bartender about the woman and the conversation and learned that the woman, Daisy, is a prostitute and the victim was her regular client. "I wasn't sure what to say when she asked about him, so I lied about his returning tomorrow," said the bartender. Ledia: I think the woman is surprised because she and the victim had arranged to meet today. Sasha: And that's all for this round! Please return for Plot Twist 2! Sasha thanks the players.

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 4 Plot Twist 2!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha gets Plot Twist 2
Sasha: We've got the wife and the son of the victim at the station, and the son offered to translate. Sasha: Choices to get clue from are 1) Crime scene, 2) HQ, 3) Bartender, 4) Daisy, 5) Victim's wife, 6) victime's son, 7) Drug lord's minion, 8) Drug lord. Zoey: Zoey sings. receives Ledia: I'll take the wife. Ledia gets clue 19 (Wife 1) [19] Victim's Wife
Ledia: At the station, Ledia recognized the victom's wife as a fellow scissors user who has disappeared from the scene from some time ago. It was the victim's idea that they moved. "It will give us a chance for a fresh start together, he said," said the wife, "but he seemed more distant than ever before." Amelia: 4 Amelia gets clue 181 (Daisy 2) Amelia: My scene happens at night. Should I wait until it is night? Sasha: Let's see if other clues happen during the day. Zoey: I pick the son. Zoey gets clue 13 (Son 1) [13] Victim's Son
Zoey: At the station, Zoey talked to the son who seemed to have adapted really well to the new country since his dad's promotion. However, she felt that the couple had a problem before they moved to this country. Tanya: Viper Tanya gets clue 203 (Viper 2) [203] Minion Viper
Tanya: While the other detectives are meeting with the victim's wife and son at the station, Tanya went to the victim's office. Piecing up ripped up notes found in the waste basket, Tanya found an address, a date , and a time which was only an hour away. "I need someone who can help take down a suspect within an hour," Tanya said on the channel. 44: I'll go. Tanya: How good are you in speaking spanish? 44: I can only name some dishes in Spanish, like taco, burrito... 😂 Tanya: Please come.
44: At the address from the ripped notes, a man shows up with a small package in hand. Tanya: That is Viper. The drug lord's minion. 44: What do we do? Do we arrest him? Tanya: Yes, he is suspected of drug trafficking. We can arrest him.
44: 44 casually walks near the man. Despite 44's manner and outfit could easily pass as a local person, when the man saw 44, the man panics and runs. 44 easily takes him down. Sasha: Two more clues for this round. Choices: Crime scene, HQ, Bartender, Drug Lord. LRRH: Red picks the drug lord. Red gets clue 138 (Druglord 2) [138] Drug Lord Toadstool
LRRH: Red is trying to catch up on this case, but when Zoey mentioned that Toadstool is a drug lord, she got sidetracked and looked him up. It seems that he has been buying as much property as he can through a front man. Sasha: Last clue of this round. Evelyn: HQ please. Evelyn gets clue 263 (HQ 2) Evelyn: I think Daisy's clue comes before my clue. [181] Prostitute Daisy
Amelia: That night, Amelia and 44 went to the bar to stake out the prostitute Daisy. When Daisy arrived, she went straight to the restroom. Amelia and 44 followed. When Daisy saw that 44 was wearing a gun, she whips out a razor to slash 44. Amelia pins Daisy to the ground. I think we missed a clue from the restroom. Tanya: Very likely. I think that is the expected result when we skip the crime scene. The evidence in the restroom would prbably be mentioned in another clue. Or it may be the reason why we decide to stake out Daisy and arrest her when she goes to the restroom. Ledia: I think it might be too confusing if we don't try to act in the way we would as detectives. Zoey: But for the game it is work because we still got Daisy in custody. XD LRRH: Why don't we just reveal all clues in each round except the last round? Then we will never be behind. In the last round, we will get only two free clues. Ledia: That is not a bad idea. That is the same as using the worst strategy. Ledia: I think it will still be a fun and fair challenge even if we use the worst strategy. The major up-sides are we are not cheating overall, and the story will be a lot easier to follow. Zoey: Yes we are still getting 24 free clues. That sounds fair. Sasha: I am okay with such change, especially when we have already discovered the strategy to only get vital clues by gaming the game. Sasha: I am for making the game harder. If making the game harder also gives us an easier story to follow, that is a bonus. Tanya: I see. Ledia: Then may I get check the crime scene again? Ledia gets clue 245 (Crime scene 2) Ledia: The clue is not about the bar but the victim's office. [245] Crime Scene
Ledia: Among the evidence Tanya gathered from the victim's office was his laptop. There was nothing extraordinary in the laptop except a folder filled with one-sentence coded symbols. Evelyn: I haven't said my clue yet. But I think my clue will be last for this round so I'll wait. Zoey: Totally forgot about Evelyn's clue. XD LRRH: If we don't say our clue at the same time we get them, maybe the purple text should display when we actually say the clue. Sasha: @StarTree, could you make a new tag for clue with a magnifying glass symbol? StarTree: Done! Sasha: I will just take the bartender clue to try it. [194] Bartender
Sasha: As Amelia and 44 take Daisy away to custody, Sasha noticed that the bartender mumbling tearfully to himself, "Mi Margarita... por que?" 'Margarita' refers to Daisy, not the drink, Sasha believes. Sasha: I did some gymnatstics there because the clue is supposed to be before the arrest. I don't think it changes the meaning if I put it like this. Zoey: May I just take both clues from the mother and son to keep things going? XD Sasha: Is this a problem? now we really need nine players to get through the first three rounds, but only 3 players for the last round. Tanya: I think we have enough players. Sasha: Not a problem then. [143] Victim's Son
Zoey: It is near the end of the day and Zoey is recounting the emotionally draining meeting with the victim's wife and son. It was hard breaking the news to them, and harder to remind herself that they too, are suspects. The son was trembling when he got the news, but took it like a man. he made it plain to us that his parents didn't have a good relationship, and his mom wanted a divorce. His dad, the victim, kept talking her out it. His mom would cry in private and have mood swings. One thing that sticks out to me from his testimony was that he heard his mom saying "only because he wants to keep his job" when she cries. I must not have understood that clearly during the interview. But from the transcript, I can only interpret that to mean the victim wanted to keep the marriage only because he needs to be married to keep his job. Isn't the victim just a navy officer? He can still keep his job after a divorce. Does he have another job where he needs to be married? [175] Victim's Wife
Zoey: Reviewing the transcript with the victim's wife, it seems that the wife was quite concerned about her son's safety. I suppose that could be normal to assume that the murderer wasn't only targeting the husband but her entire family. She also asked about when she could pick up the body. We might have to tell her about it tomorrow. Zoey: I must admit. The scrambling is bad for RP. LOL. It made it so hard. XD. It is one thing if we just decide to never get clues from a suspect, but if we have to RP it in retrospect it is hard. XD Ledia: That's what I said. 😉 Evelyn: And my clue. [263] Headquarters
Evelyn: Evelyn had retrieved the body of the victim from the local station. The local reported noted a letter "Z" that was carved across the victim's windpipe, but Evelyn will need the lab to determine the circumstance when the victim was attacked.
Sasha: "Bring this back to the lab, too" Sasha said, and hands Evelyn the razor confiscated from Daisy. Sasha: Okay. Those are ALL of the clues from Round 1 and 2. There are four rounds total. Is it possible that Daisy was not the murder?? We have only reach the halfway point of the case! Sasha: Please return for plot twist 3! Sasha thanks the players.

Could we make the teleport single click? LRRH: I was transferring content from the place level guide to its node. For ease of navigation, ever since we started switching to nodes, we need to click multiple times to get to the actual content from the teleport. LRRH: Can we make it single click again?

StarTree: StarTree has just changed the right side link to CH 27 Magic Bakery HQ!
LRRH: What about the left side link?
StarTree: That is the only link left to the post! Should there be no link to the blog post?
LRRH: I think we don't need a teleport link to a blog post. @Ivy ?
Ivy: I think it is the blogger post that should change, and the entire content of the blogger post should come from a node. When you click on the card at the blogger front page, it should load a page where the content of the node is displayed. StarTree: StarTree understands! StarTree: To do that the place node should not contain [jq] tags to avoid infinite loop! LRRH: Why can the link in the right load them? StarTree: That uses LoadArchivePost function to load the entire node! StarTree: StarTree is trying something!
StarTree: StarTree can make it work if the place node contains the background banner. Is that okay? Ivy: I think you are very close to what Red wants. StarTree: StarTree thinks harder! LRRH: 💟 StarTree: Is it okay if the place node does not have [jq]? LRRH: Yes, if you can make their content viewable without jumping to another page. @Guild has double ranked up to Rank B!

May I add the kudos calendar to the regular calendar?

Evelyn: I remembered the reason why I asked StarTree about the calendar. It was thinking of adding the kudos calendar as a tab to our normal character. The icon can be after the crown icon.
Evelyn: I think it will be convenient if we can easily switch to the kudos calendar to see what we were happy about on that day.
Ledia: I think that is a great idea.
Evelyn: @StarTree is there any technical concern? Will I break something if I do that?
StarTree: StarTree thinks it will be okay. There is dummy caledar node P202301000000 for 2023 January if you want to test the code! Evelyn: Evelyn learned something from StarTree! StarTree is recognized for the skill Practice Dummy. StarTree: Wee~~! 2022 December calendar now has a happy calendar tab. Evelyn thanks Ledia and StarTree.

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 4 Plot Twist 3!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

Sasha: Following the discussion from last round, we will reveal all clues of round 3, and round 4 will have only two free clues. Sasha: That means that we will need 9 players to get through round 3. Sasha: Since we will reveal all round 3 clues, I suppose you would pick the clue purely based on the one you want to RP.
PLOT TWIST 3

Sasha: The code from the victim's laptop has been deciphered. They are shipping coordinates of naval supply ships that had been recently pirated of weapons. And the small package that Tanya and 44 retrieved from Viper contained a USB stick with photos of the victim and Daisy together. Sasha: Choices: Crime Scene, HQ, Bartender, Daisy, Wife, Son, Viper, Drug Lord. Evelyn: HQ.
[227] Headquarters

Evelyn: I don't have anything to report about the body yet, but the lab result of the razor is that it has no DNA evidence. In fact, there is no evidence it was ever used. It is as good as new. Ledia: In a case like this, how important is it to find the murder weapon. It is not necessary to find the weapon. But if we do we can narrow down suspects. Zoey: Is no one concerned that the victim's laptop has encrypted coordinates? He was probably committing a crime against the navy. Are we sure he wasn't killed by our own spys? XD Ledia: If so, then what? Case closed? Tanya: Our spy wouldn't just kill him like that. I don't think we know how he died yet. We have only heard there was a lot of blood. Evelyn: Pressumably from the artery from his neck. But please wait for the autospy. 😖 Someone went Zorro on him. XD Ledia: ... LRRH: Can we upgrade the NCIS game node so that when we click on a plot twist, it shows the post there instead of jumping to the post? Zoey: Yes that would be much better! XD Ledia receives Zoey: What was that for? XD Ledia: What I meant by Scissors. Zoey: No way. XD Better find her scissors. I take the clue for the wife. Zoey: NCIS the anime. XD Ledia: The clue I got (208) has a scene where the wife, the son, and Daisy are in the same meeting. I suppose we reveal their clues to decide the order of events. Zoey: I take the son's clue. Zoey: My clue comes immediately after yours. Sasha: By the way, I think in general we don't need to piece together the event. You could just change the scene. Of course I am okay if you want to piece them together. Ivy: I think it is more clear if they are in order. I take Daisy's clue. Ivy: My clue comes immediately before Ledia's. I'm not on scene so I will give that to Ledia. Tanya: If you really want to piece the plot together, wouldn't you need all 8 clues? Ledia: Yes, if you are willing to give it. Tanya: I get the clue for Viper. Tanya: I cannot tell if my scene is before or after. it is a scene where the son is asked to translate, but seems to recognize Viper. LRRH: I pick the drug lord. LRRH: My clue is background information about who needs weapons. I think it can go first. Ledia: Who wants to RP the bar? Sasha: I think I will give those to Amelia and 44. They are not familiar with RPing. I think they are fine if I work them into the story. Evelyn: RP'ing can be hard at first. 😅 Sasha: OMG. I need to give this clue to Ledia. Zoey: XD Sasha: Chronologically, the third clue from the bartender happened before I gave the razor to Evelyn to bring back to HQ. Actually I think that scene would happen before plot twist 2. Sasha: We noticed that since game 1 when I was playing with Tanya. We did not read the game rules wrong. It is impossible to reach clue #3 in round 1 because each agent has to be sent to a different card. This clue I will give to Tanya. Ledia: So, who is first? Sasha: Red, then interview with Daisy, Wife and Son, then Viper, then Crime Scene. Evelyn: I like how in the same game, we tried playing in both strategies. Tanya: We didn't really try the "ignore the bartender and crime scene" strategy. Evelyn: I think you are right. I'm sorry. 😅 Tanya: It's okay. Sasha: @Red you are up first.
[129] Lord Toadstool

LRRH: After hearing about the coordinates of pirated weapons, Little Red said on the channel that Lord Toadstool have been not only buying a lot of land, but also trying to get weapons to arm his militia. Zoey: Just how is Red getting all these intel? XD LRRH: It is on Tweeter. 🐣 Zoey: XD The Drug Lord and Viper don't have a good motive to kill the victim if the victim is helping them get weapon. As far as I can interpret, Viper did not know that the victim died. If he did, he would not have gone to the meeting location. Ledia: Very compelling. Do we know for sure that Viper is meeting with the victim and not someone else? The note was in the victim's office. It is a secure location. By occam's razor, the most probable interpretation is the victim planned to get the USB from Viper. What I don't get is, why would the drug lord give the USB to the victim? Maybe they are doing that as a proof that they can blackmail him. But wasn't the victim already helping the drug lord get weapons? Maybe the drug lord figured out that he can stop paying him if they can blackmail him. Ledia: I am sorry to interrupt, but I have a hunch on who the murderer might be. But I need an opportunity to search the victim's house while his family is away. Zoey: I guess we can bring the wife and son to help interview Daisy.
[75] Prostitute Daisy

Zoey: Zoey asked the Wife and Son to come to the station to help translate for the two suspects arrested yesterday. First up is Daisy, her interviewer is Amelia.
Amelia: I show Daisy the photo of the victim and make a cutting throat gesture in front of it. Daisy seemed to understand that the victim is dead. She drops her head. Next I rubbed my fingers in front of her, and Daisy said something. "Ms. Amelia, she said she does not understand what you are asking," said the son, "I can translate for you." "I want to ask how much is he paying her," I said. "Nothing, she said." "Are you just in love with him?" I asked. "Ms. Amelia. She said someone else was paying her."
[208] Victim's Wife

Zoey: As Daisy confesses her affair, the victim's wife, who has come with her son, suddenly bursts out at Daisy, "This is all your fault!" Daisy seems frightened. The wife said, "Ask my son, he knows all about you!" "Mom?" the son said. I led the wife to sit further away.
44: Meanwhile, the son speaks softly to me, "My mom can lash out like that sometimes, but she tends to calm back down quickly. Can I take her home now?"
[51] Minion Viper

44: I said to the son, "I think the interview with Daisy ends now, but we have one more suspect if you would help us translate." As I led the son to the room with Viper, the son seemed surprised. "What's wrong?" I said. "Nothing. He looks just like one of my teachers," the son said. And we started interviewing Viper.
[67] Crime Scene

Ledia: While the wife and son are away, Ledia and Tanya went to search the victim's house for the murder weapon. "She probably does not know me, but I recognized her as the Dancing Scissors, a commando who had retired years ago," Ledia explained her rationale for the search to the team, "She would be someone who can 'go Zorro' at someone's throat at arm's length." Ledia receives
Ledia: An odd smell led Ledia to the wife's bathroom. Behind a mirror was a pair of commando scissors soaking in nail polish remover. "Tanya, I think we have the murder weapon," said Ledia, as she admires the designs of the legendary weapon.
Tanya: On the other hand, Tanya is searching for clues about the son. What if someone else has access to the victim's office? "The son has been skipping school," said Tanya. Tanya had found a dozen unopened truancy letters.
[214] Bartender

Tanya: According to the bartender that we interviewed on the first day, the victim had only been seen waiting for two people at the bar: Daisy, or Viper. Viper and the victim were always seen exchanging something. If his testimony was true, the victim and Viper knew each other.
[162] Victim's Son

Tanya: According to the interviews that are happening, the son knows both Daisy and Viper, although neither seem to know him. Why is that? Ledia: The son of a commando is a spy?
Ivy: That work laptop from the victim has a rather unusual login record. There is a history where a few minutes after the victim logged in, the son logged in.
Sasha: And those were all the clues from round 3! Sasha: Please return for Plot Twist 4! Sasha: @StarTree could you make the NCIS node work like the way Red suggested? StarTree: Roger! Sasha thanks the players.

Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 4

Sasha: After the interviews, the suspects were allowed to leave the station. Later, the drug lord's minion Viper is found dead in a back alley with bullet holes in his forehead, both of his wrists, and several in his chest. Completely different style of murder. We did take the scissors. Sasha: Okay. So in this round, we only have two free clues. For every six Arcacia Awards we can get one bonus clue, up to three bonus clues. Sasha: Meanwhile, I am doing some mindblowing upgrades to the script maker that I am in awe of myself. Sasha is recognized for Spell Crafting. Evelyn: Are we skipping the autopsy result? 😅 Tanya: I think it is quite likely that a clue from the Wife or HQ will rule out a suspect. Evelyn: I think now is the time I would defer to strategists to decide which clue to take. **Evelyn Sings** Evelyn receives I think the only three possible suspects are the bartender, the wife, and the son. If the scissors are not the murder weapon, the murderer may be the bartender, who might have been lying. I will be okay with spending the first free clue on HQ. Zoey: I am also okay with revealing the HQ clue. Tanya: I choose the HQ.
🔍 [256] Headquarters

Evelyn: Evelyn determined that the wound at the victim's neck was done by a pair of scissors. And the lab reported that there was traces of blue liquid around the wound. The liquid is identified to be barbacide. Evelyn receives Ledia: I think the wife and son's clue have about equal chance of disproving one of them. Zoey: I'll pick the son because the game is driving us toward the mom.
🔍 [134] Victim's Son

Zoey: Zoey asked the victim's son about the log in. He said he was a part-time custodian at that office last summer, that was why he also has a login to his dad's work laptop. "Was there anything unusual there that might help explain his murder," asked Zoey. "Like what?" "Like this USB stick?" "He has many of those, said the son. I think the implication is that those logins corresponded to last summer. They are not recent. Therefore, there is no evidence that the son knew about the most recent meeting where we caught Viper. Ledia: All evidences point to the wife. Sasha: You are one AA short of a bonus clue. P4: **P4 Sings** P4: P4 wants to check the crime scene.
🔍 [147] Crime Scene

💗
P4: P4 was practicing oracle skill with mom again. She hasn't been following the case, but her vision had something to do about it, in Spanish.
Zoey: At that time, Zoey was still interviewing the son at the victim's house. Zoey asked him about the truancy letters. He said, "I needed to stay home and keep protecting her." Zoey thought, according to Ledia, the wife was an ex-commando. How exactly is the son protecting her? And from what? That was when P4 called in.
💗
P4: Could you ask the son if he knows the difference between the words for 'cut' and 'shoot' in Spanish? Zoey: That seems so random, I don't know anymore. XD Tanya: How many AA are we from a second bonus clue? Sasha: I count 4. You need 4 more for second bonus clue. Ledia: What are you thinking? Maybe there is a clue on Viper's body. Sasha: I think it is time for each player to choose a suspect. Evelyn: I'll cover the bartender. LRRH: I'll cover the drug lord. Ledia: I choose the wife. P4: P4 chooses the son. Zoey: I feel obliged to sit out since I have the lead. XD I'll cover Viper. Sasha: I'll cover Daisy. Tanya: I pick the wife. Ivy: I pick the son. 44: I pick the son. Amelia: I pick the wife. Sasha: @Casey, @StarTree? Casey: Well I haven't really been following. Zoey: Then could you cover Viper for me. XD Casey: Sure. Zoey: Now the big question: Who should I pick? I guess I will go with Tanya and pick the wife since everything about the son is even more speculation. XD StarTree: StarTree picks the son to avoid rounding off 1/3! Sasha: Okay, now we will reveal the remaining clues. The order wlll be Drug Lord, Daisy, Bartender, Viper, and the Wife. Sasha: I decided the order based on my guess of the usefulness of the clues.
🔍 [26] Drug Lord

💗
LRRH: At one of Lord Toadstool's properties was a notice that reads, "Dear Toadstool, no more codes for you mi amigo. Give it up." Somewhere far off, Lord Toadstool is upset quietly.
🔍 [161] Daisy

💗
Sasha: During the interview with Daisy, she said that someone was paying her. Amelia asked who paid, but Daisy wouldn't reply until 44 offered her $300 for the answer. "The man with the glass eye," the son translated. The next day, after receiving a report that Viper was found dead, the Bartender called the detectives, "Daisy is dead behind the bar. Shot in the head, chest, and wrists."
🔍 [152] Bartender

Evelyn: On the first day, the detectives pressed on to ask the bartender if there was anyone else he had not seen on the night the victim was murdered. But the bartender said there was no one new. He had seen everyone there that night,including the drug dealers hanging around outside.
🔍 [2] Viper

Casey: I'll give this clue to 44.
44: In the intervew with Viper, Viper wouldn't talk at first, until the victim's son said something in Spanish that got Viper's attention. There was a rapid exchange between the two before the son started translating again. He said, "The method that Lord Toadstool uses to execute people is a cut across the forehead, chest, and wrists.
Ivy: Meanwhile, Ivy who was listening in to the interview on the channel said to P4, "The Spanish word for 'cut' is 'cortar'. The suspect said 'tirara', that meant shoot. Other than that this kid's translation was pretty accurate..." P4 was not listening to the case and had no idea what Ivy was talking about. Suppose the son is the murderer, is this clue suggesting that he tried to make the murder look like an execution by Lord Toadstool. He skipped school because he was a wannabe drug dealer joining Toadstool, but he didn't know exactly how Toadstool would have someone executed? That would mean the bartender saw the son on that night. The bartender just didn't know that the son is the victim's son. If the bartender has been truthful. Evelyn: How old is the son? 😅 Sasha: 17 Evelyn: I have a hard time picturing it. Sasha: There is still one more clue. Who is doing the clue for the wife? Tanya: Ledia picked the wife first.
🔍 [108] Victim's Wife

Ledia: The detectives were at the victim's home to confront the wife about the discovery of the murder weapon, and previous spousal abuse arrest warrants. Instead of denying the murder, she said the victim had dropped those charges after the son talked him out of it. "You are very close to you son, aren't you?" asked Tanya. "He is everything to me. He even quited his job yesterday to be closer to me." "What job was that?" "Custodian at his dad's office." I think that points more toward the son being the murderer than the wife. It is as if the wife knew the son killed the father. XD Sasha: Well well well, time to reveal the truth!
⚖️ SOLUTION

Sasha: It is the son!
Sasha: Motive: The son loves his mom and suspected his dad of doing something bad and started investigating. He found two things: 1) That his dad is selling out his country, and 2) his dad is cheating on his mom. So he did the father in.
Sasha: Means: The son used his mom's scissors. He thought that he could blame it on the infamous drug lord, but he did not know that the drug lord had a specific way of execution. Sasha: The implication there being, when the son discovered that Toadstool's method of execution was to shoot people, the son lied to the detectives.
Sasha: Opportunity: The son simply stalked out his dad, followed him to the restroom in the bar and killed him.
Sasha: Aftermath: The son was prosecuted as an adult, but the defense was successful in arguing that he did a great service to the country and could be considered a hero if he had been in the proper team. The jury was convinced and he received the minimum sentence possible.
Sasha: Aside: Viper and Daisy were executed by the drug lord because they were caught. Sasha: With that, the current scores are 0.7: Zoey. 0.5: Sasha, 0.45: Ivy, StarTree. 0.25: 44, P4. 0.2: Ledia, Tanya. Ivy: Would it be too much to ask to multiply all scores by 100? Sasha: In my mind a 1 means a level 1 detective. Zoey: Can anyone even get to 1? XD Sasha: Please return for the next case! Sasha thanks the players.

There has been almost no progress for "Arcacianism" since last month.

Sasha: The Magic Bakery playlist at youtube already has a description with the word "Arcacianism", but there seems to be no effect yet. Sasha: So let's change more titles/descriptions and see what happens. LRRH: Magic Bakery Waltz youtube now has a description with the word Arcacianism.
Evelyn: I think we can have another public playlist of original music, and its title could have Arcacianism. LRRH: I made a playlist with only Sora Arcacia. Zoey: To be honest we need more content. Evelyn: I think Magic Vacation is quite Arcacian. LRRH: What about Cooking with Arcacia? Evelyn: Yes 😅 P4: P4 has a question.
P4: Why do the music we upload sound muffled compared to other music at youtube?
Ivy: Treble filter. P4: 💟 P4 uploaded a new version of Sora Arcacia. Sasha thinks today is a good day.

Wyvern Island

This is about drafting for Chapter 16 Page 10. 3B: On page 9, a monster has spawned from a card. I haven't shown Sasha yet. What should happen next?

Evelyn: I think... we need to do something to determine if the monster is friend or foe. For example, we need to know if the gas it is spraying is poisonous, and if we should just avoid it or do something about it. Evelyn: I really want to avoid a situation where we are apparently practicing to destroy wild life. 😅
Zoey: I feel that we are back to square one. It goes back to healing versus destroying. Evelyn is okay if we are healing things, but not when we are destroying things.
Evelyn: I have an idea where within the mist, we can see crystal. Then for each crystal we need to determine if it is poisonous or not.
Zoey: And what does it mean when it is poisonous?
Evelyn: That would mean it hurts people around it.
Zoey: But those are words and concepts, how would they hurt people? Do you mean when the message is insulting? Evelyn: I don't know yet. 😖
Zoey: The original context of the dungeon was to identify logical fallacies and when we find them, we can mercilessly destroy them. Evelyn: But if they are representing as being, the option should be to heal them. If they can't destroy us, we shouldn't try to destory them. As you said, those are messages. If they are bad messages, and we heal them, they can become good messages.
Tanya: Should we try some items from the staging area? LRRH: The last thing I was working on was cherry-picking. I haven't deployed yet because the tone seemed off. Evelyn: Let's clean it up.
LRRH: The message prompt was "Profit demands inefficiency. Volunteerism demands efficiency." LRRH: With that prompt I wrote a lot explaining why that is cherry-picking.
3B: For my understanding, are we saying the turtle is now a monster that spawns other monsters? The dark mist it creates turns people into non-thinking or wrong-thinking beings. Then if you focus on something specific, you an see a message. 3B: And as a peacemaker you need to first decide whether that message is part of the problem lowering people's rationale. Evelyn: I think it should be something like that.
Evelyn: According to the schema that Black put there: The speaker used an example where a sellers who profits from a problem has no incentive to solve a problem. While Red gives an example where a for-profit buyer affected by such problem has an incentive to solve the problem. When the two are considered, since for every seller there must be at least a buyer, and a for-profit victim would want the problem solved, the conclusion by the speaker is either false or at least not as easily determined.
3B: So I am picturing, as you read into the mist and casts a spell, the mist starts to take form as a cherry. Your spell brings to it its lost cherry friends. Once they reunit, they are happy and together they can fend off others who try to pick them apart. Evelyn: I think that could be a cute idea. Zoey: I think it would be better if the lone monster is not a "cherry monster". How about a blindfolded small dragon that is isolated and attacks things around it? 3B: I think I can draw that. Evelyn: For the cherry-picking node, I want to first add a section describing the cause and how we could help. Evelyn added a cause section to the Cherry-Picking node. #P202208011050|🍒 Cherry Picking 3B: I will take me some time to process it. Evelyn: I don't think it is necessary to show all of that in the manga, but there might be a situation where our countermeasure does not work, my response would be based on that understanding. 3B: Thank you, I will think about it. 3B thanks all for the ideas.

Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 1

Sasha: The detectives arrive at a 20th high school reunion after a female body is discovered in the boys' locker room. She is dressed in full ceremonial military attire, including medals.
LRRH: "Isn't she the prize-winning autobiography author who is currently on trial for impersonating the officer that her book was about?" Little Red Riding Hood said. Little Red is a detective, usually the first to arrive.
Tanya: "We are locking this place down. No one leaves." orders Tanya, who is also a detective.
Sasha: Just to be clear, everyone who has an avatar is a detective. Detectives are never suspects. This is not that kind of game where we guess who did it among ourselves. The murderer IS one of the six suspects below. Sasha: The choices for clues are listed in the following sections. If the clues reveal to have an obvious order, I may rearrange them to make the story easier to understand.
🔍 [264] Crime Scene

LRRH: "Why is the victim wearing a military uniform?" asks Tanya. "The psychologist expert witness on the trial says she is deeply insecure and compulsively craves respect. So she wears medals that aren't hers." says Red while her dog sniffs around and finds a handgun lying in the corner. "My dog thinks this is the murder weapon."
Zoey: But there is no blood.
Evelyn: "Her skull is crushed," says Evelyn, "I'll bring her back for autopsy."
🔍 [163] Ex-Jock

Zoey: Zoey thinks that for the assailant to make such an attack, they would probably have to be a certain height and strength, so among the guests who are now separated, she picks the one who seems to have such qualities. "I'm an electronic salesman," says the Ex-Jock. Zoey says, "One of the guests says they saw you verbally abusing both the victim and her best friend the whole evening." "Abusing is a little strong," says the Ex-Jock with a smirk, "We were just reliving our old high school days. Besides, she kind of deserved it, didn't she?"
🔍 [119] Victim's Ex-Boyfriend

Robert: Robert searches the periphery of the crime and notices a black cellphone beneath a bench across the room. The battery cover was loose, but the phone was still on. "It was probably knocked from her hand," thinks Robert as he reads the most recent text messages. One ominous message, from "Ex-boyfriend #119" reads, "I want to settle this tonight, once and for all."
Zoey: XD Ledia: The victim seemed popular. Zoey: She kept count. XD
🔍 [84] Victim's Best HS Friend

Ledia: Ledia interviews the woman others refer to as the victim's best friend, or perhaps, former best friend. "It was asbolutely disgusting the way she was behaving tonight," the best friend says, "I'm not the least bit surprised that this has happened, especially after she had the audacity to show up in that uniform again. She is not who I used to know," weeps the best friend, "and on top of everything, sneaking out to make out in that cheater's car in the first hour she arrived! Disgusting..."
🔍 [148] Another Impostor

Tanya: Among the guests is one who looks much older. "Are you Sgt. Major Hunter?" asks Tanya according to the guestbook. "Yes, why?" "Aren't you currently in trouble for using that name?" The imposter is surprised at Tanya's question.
Ledia: It appears that we don't have enough detectives on scene to stick to the one player per clue restriction. Evelyn: Did I leave the scene too early? 😖 Sasha: We need a time of death ASAP. No pressures. Tanya: I'll call for backup.
🔍 [177] Victim's First Ex-Boyfriend

Ivy: Ivy hears Tanya calling for backup on the channel and replies, "Didn't Red bring the dog? Just let it run." With that, Red lets the dog run to a sobbing man.
LRRH: "What's your name?" asks Red. The man says his name which Red will soon replace with something more memorable to her. "The dog says you smell like [the victim]," says Red. "I suppose that would be true," says the man, "I might as well tell you, since you will find out anyway with that loudmouth around. [The victim] and I were each other's first. High school sweethearts." "Mr. Sweetheart, the dog is not talking about twenty years ago," says Red, "The dog says you smell very much like her right now."
Evelyn: Please don't do that in real life, the man just lost a loved one. The accusation tone is over the top. 😖 LRRH: 🐣
🔍 [244] Headquarters

StarTree: The handgun found at the crime scene is registered to the victim's best friend, but the only fingerprints not wiped off is one complete print at the top of the grip matching the Ex-Jock!
Evelyn: For the victim's time of death, I would place it at 10:15 PM.
Robert: lol about the gun. Making everyone look guilty
🔮 [159] Retired Soldier

P4: P4 is practicing oracle skill with mom. What do you see, P4? P4 sees a man walking through a park to a building that looks like a hospital. He is listening to a breaking news report about the high school on lockdown. He seems happy. He is saying something, P4, what does he say? He says, "Now she knows how to keep a secret!"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 2

Robert: Robert finds the name of Ex-119 by reverse search, but cannot find that name on the attendance list. He asks around if anyone has heard of [Ex-119]. "Isn't he the one who wrote that fake story on [the victim]?" says one of the guests. "Oh, I tell you, they were way more than that for a while," adds the best friend.
Sasha: Since we are revealing all clues for each round, I decided that whoever closest to the content of the next plot twist gets the plot twist RP as a bonus.
🔍 [103] Best Friend

Ledia: Ledia asks her about her handgun found at the crime scene. "That gun is just for my protection and [the victim] pulled me into that locker room!" the best friend panics, "She was hysterical. She knocked my purse across the room and it spilled..." "How did you get those bruises on your arms?" Ledia asks.
Zoey: She didn't get the gun back? 🤔 Black: I wonder if she is a witness of the murder.
🔍 [193] Ex-Jock

Zoey: "We found your prints on a gun at the crime scene," says Zoey. The Ex-Jock stumbles backward slightly, "That must be [victim's best friend]'s gun! We were just horsing around. I grabbed at the gun after spotting it in her purse, but she pull it back, I swear."
Zoey: What if the gun was not the murder weapon? Any more findings from the lab or crime scene? Black: I'll go to the crime scene. LRRH: If I said that it was the murder weapon, does that count? Sasha: No, we don't change the facts about the case. If you misinterpret something in your clue, we blame the player for misinterpreting. Evelyn: You just said Sirius thinks it is the murder weapon. It doesn't mean it is the murder weapon. Evelyn: I'll take the lab now.
🔍 [270] Headquarters

Evelyn: The assailant seems to be right-handed and tall, if not standing on something. And... the victim was with two men tonight. From her bruises, it seems that at least one was not consensual. 😖
Ledia: Don't we have only two other men on scene? We don't know if Ex-119 and the "retired marine" sneaked in.
🔍 [127] Another Impostor

Tanya: "They asked me to sign the guestbook," says the Imposter, after Tanya pointed out that he is also on trial for wearing someone else's medals. "We were just living out a fantasy, it was only meant to be harmless fun. Why did [the victim] have to talk with that reporter in the first place?" "Why exactly are you here now?" asks Tanya.
Tanya: My interpretation of the Imposter's comment was that it would have been harmless fun if the victim didn't get so much attention, which led to the imposter also being on trial.
🔍 [286] Crime Scene

Evelyn: I'm not sure if it helps, but there is also a large hickey on the victim's neck.
Evelyn: I got this clue from Black. But most of it are already mentions in other clues.
🔍 [213] Sweetheart

LRRH: The Sweetheart confessed he got rough with the victim in the car, and begged not to tell his wife about it. Red says to the dog, "Sirius, can you get the second man?"
LRRH: Can we give up clue three of the Sweetheart for one more free clue in round 4? Zoey: I would agree. Sasha: I would say yes, if no one picks him on round 3.
🔍 [137] Ex-119

Robert: Robert finds Ex-119 at his home. "All I meant by that text messge was that I wanted to end our relationship," explains Ex-119, "Since she is out on bail, I insisted that we meet." Robert asks him what led to this end. "Her experience seemed perfect for the story I was writing, Unsung Heroines, which earned me a prize. But I did not know that she was a fake. That embarrassment may have ruined me, but from what I ahve heard, you should talk to [the retired marine] instead."
Black: By relationship, it seems that he strictly meant their businessess relationship. I wonder if he may sue her for damage, if so, he probably has no motive to kill her. Tanya: What if they have a contract and he still has to pay her? Ledia: If that book is ruined, there won't be much payout to her anyway.
🔍 [39] Retired Marine

Kisaragi: Kisa followed the lead from Robert to look for the retired marine, a 29 years-old who resides at a psych ward. According to the records, he has PTSD from the war and opted in voluntarily to stay at the psych ward. His pasttime is bingo in the evening. That was how he met the victim, according to him. "Mr. [Bingo], we heard that recently you went to a newspaper, hoping to print some more wrongdoings by [the victim]. It would greatly help our investigation if you could tell us more about that."
Sasha thanks the players!

Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 3

Robert: On the night of the murder, after Robert showed the photo of Ex-119 but nobody recall having seen him at the reunion, the guests were allowed to leave, but were asked to remain available for the next few days. Meanwhile, the psych ward where Mr. Bingo resides confirmed that Mr. Bingo did not return until 11 PM that night.
Sasha: Here's the deal. for every clue that we choose not to reveal, we get a free clue in round 4. Tanya: In other words, we are back to how the game is played out of the box. There are ten free clues left between round 3 and 4. Zoey: If we had followed the official game rule, in this round we would get Plot Twist 4 after using four clues. Is that true? Getting Plot Twist 4 will save us from wasting clues. Sasha: I think that is fine. After revealing the fourth clue, Plot twist 4 will be revealed. Ledia: I thought the plan was to reveal all clues so that the story will make more sense and the game will be harder. Zoey: But it seems that the timeline is already broken. Sasha: I think in the way I post now, I can just rearrange them after a clue is revealed. Ledia: That's true. Sasha: So, now the choices are more important, and I hope that makes it more exciting!
🔍 [17] Mr. Bingo

Robert: "[The victim] pretended to be my friend and I thought we had much in common," replies to the detectives, "... or so I thought. We talked for hours on end and I told her my deepest secrets. How could she be faking all along like that?" "Where were you tonight at around 10:15?" asks Robert. "Right here." "Let's continue our conversation at the station," says Robert, as he reaches for his handcuffs.
Zoey: I don't believe it is Mr. Bingo. I don't think this is how the game works. XD We must find a second suspect. Sasha: We have three more clues before plot twist 4. Ledia: If I understand correctly, at round 4 we will have 6 free clues, but since we will have only revealed 4 clues in round 3, at least one of the clues in round 4 will be a round 3 clue. Is that correct? Sasha: Yes, you will need to use a free clue to catch up on a clue from round 3. Evelyn: I don't think there is any result pending from the lab. We still need to know who the second man was. I think we still have a good chance to get a clue from the crime scene or HQ. Ledia: if we can only pick one I would say HQ. Sasha: By now I would think that they are all the same. It seems to be just up to our preference. There will probably be overlapping clues. Ledia: Then we could just roll dice and stick with it? I want to pick Imposter #2 because I don't think anyone else knows him. Ledia: How old is Imposter #2? Tanya: The clue didn't say. Maybe being old is a clue that he is not the second man. Tanya: I see. Black: Then that leaves only Ex-Jock versus Mr. Bingo. I think it is safer to get a clue from HQ first, because we have nothing pending from the HQ. So if HQ in fact has something, then it will be a meaningful clue. Ledia: Compelling. Zoey: I pick HQ.
🔍 [56] Headquarters

Evelyn: The lab result is that the second man seems to have very low reproductive vitality.
Zoey: Case closed? XD Since a suspect normally won't give us incriminating evidence on themself, this would mean we don't reveal a clue from Imposter #2. But this is only Round 3. What if he has an alibi? Black: What if the Ex-Jock is also infertile? In reality we would just get DNA sample from both. That doesn't show the second man also killed the victim. True. Unless you can pinpoint the time of their act to coincide with the time of death. 🤔 LRRH: Do you think the Best Friend has more gossips? Ledia: I was last asking her about her bruises. I think her clue #3 will talk about that. I think it might be worth checking the crime scene because it appears that the HQ result would not overlap with a clue from the crime scene. But It could overlap with a suspect clue. If we directly review a suspect clue, there is a chance that we don't need to reveal a crime scene clue. But when we reveal a crime scene clue, we don't know who that clue is associated with. Zoey: I think that just happened when we revealed about the low vitality clue, we don't really know who has low vitality except Imposter #2 is referred to as being old. In that case the clue from the lab wasn't redundant. The lab result and "being old" were on different clue cards. It takes two separate clues to make a connection. So if the game was designed correctly, a clue from the crime scene should not be redundant. It will give you half of an association. If you just reveal a suspect card, it would not be enough for you to know that there is an association. Ledia: That is compelling if the game is designed like that. And I hope that it is designed like that, then we don't have to meta game. LRRH: Red goes to the crime scene, since "hope" and "wish" are close enough.
🔍 [254] Crime Scene

Ivy: In the lab, Ivy has gotten Mr. Sweetheart's laptop. "Why am I checking this?" laments Ivy. The content of the laptop confirms that Mr. Sweetheart likes it rough.
Ivy: I'm sorry. It was a flop. The clue is not a duplicate but is useless. We never doubted that Mr. Sweetheart can be rough if he had said so himself. Sasha: Last clue before Plot Twist 4! If the game tells us that Imposter #2 is fertile, it must also give us a clue on who is infertile. I don't think we can get that clue from Imposter #2. If a clue from Imposter #2 tells us that he is infertile that would be our guess already, and without revealing clues about other suspect, we would not know if that condition is unique to him. Therefore, in both cases we should not spend a clue on Imposter #2. The bruises on the Best Friend might be a red herring, suggesting that the victim died during a fight with her best friend. But we are not suspecting the murderer to be a woman. And if the best friend was the murderer, she could have kept the gun instead of leaving it on scene. So I pick Ex-Jock for a clue.
🔍 [6] Ex-Jock

Tanya: Tanya joins the interrogation with the Ex-Jock who is explaining why he acted the way he did at the reunion, "I was a hot shot football star in high school. I could get any girl I wanted. But when I asked [the victim] out, she just laughed in my face. In front of everyone. That deeply affected me."
So long as Ex-Jock or other suspects don't tell us they are infertile, my only suspect is Imposter #2. Wouldn't it be the same as saying, "unless Imposter #2 tells us he is fertile, he remains our top suspect"? Then we only need to reveal his clues intead of everyone else. Tanya: But if he does tell us, we have no other suspect. So my point is, we might as well assume that he will tell us he is fertile, so we start looking for a second suspect earlier. Ledia: Hmm... Zoey: Why did you ask that question, Ledia? I thought I understood the strategy now I am confused, but it sounds like Tanya knows what she is doing. XD Ledia: Tanya is saying, because she thinks that Imposter #2 is the murderer, therefore we should assume that his clue will tell us he is not the murderer, so we should start looking for an alternative murder suspect. Tanya: Correct. Ledia: It makes no sense. It doesn't make sense in real life. It makes sense in this game because we know the murderer is one of the suspects, and the game would not make us eliminate each suspect without also giving us something that associate them to the murder. So if the game bothers to give Imposter #2 an alibi, then the game must give us another clue on which of the other men is infertile. It is a meta-gaming strategy. So, if we reveal that another suspect is infertile, do we then assume that Imposter #2 is fertile? Or should we confirm or look for a second clue to pick out which infertile man is the murderer? Tanya: I think there aren't more vital clue. Ledia: But this is only round 3. We still have one more twist. Sasha: I think it is time to review Plot Twist 4.

Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 5 Plot Twist 4!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 4

Sasha: Ledia previously asked who discovered the body. We checked the call record, it was the Janitor who discovered the body. He had just finished sweeping the hallway and was moving on to the boys' locker room when he found the body.
StarTree: Meanwhile, StarTree looked into the Chickenhawk chat room that the victim frequented. It is a popular forum for people who want to join but do not qualify, to fantasize about joining the military!
Sasha: This twist is revealed after 4 clues from plot twist 3 were revealed. There are six free clues left, which can be spent on remaining clues from Round 3 or Round 4. Is the janitor one of the suspect? I think if he is a suspect he could only be Mr. Bingo. Everyone else came as a guest, and Ex-119 is supposed to be a writer. Evelyn: May I finish the last clue from the lab?
🔍 [277] Headquarters

Evelyn: Evelyn says on the channel that low reproductive vitality can be caused by malnutrition, smoking, obesity, radiation, and even bicycling.
Did the clue specifically not mention age? Evelyn: The clue does not mention age. 😅 Tanya: No suspect has any of those qualities so far. Sasha: Five free clues left.
🔍 [28] Mr. Bingo

Black: At the HQ, Mr. Bingo is asked where he was at 10:15. "I was leaving the bingo hall at that time, heading back to my room." says Mr. Bingo.
Robert: "And you said something about a secret that you told [the victim]." says Robert. "I did things in the war that I'm not proud of. Things I should never have told that faker," says Mr. Bingo.
I would say his explanation could be possibly be confirmed by other witnesses. I would consider Bingo clear of suspicion even if he would kill someone to keep his secret. Sasha: Four free clues left. Ledia: Let's finish Ex-Jock.
🔍 [49] Ex-Jock

Ledia: Ledia shows a previous case of the Ex-Jock. "Prior sexual assault. Bargained down to probation. Apparently because of your father's connections as a judge." "That was an entirely different matter," says the Ex-Jock, "and I was just a kid. I learned my lesson."
Ledia: No hit at all. That is within expectation if Imposter #2 is the murderer. LRRH: Little Red Riding Hood wants to go after the murder instead of eliminating alternate suspects. 🐣 Sasha: Three free clues left. Ivy: May I standby for the crime scene? Sasha: What do you mean? Ivy: You are going to have us guess, then reveal all clues before revealing the solution, right? I want to RP the crime scene if no one reveals it before our guesses. Sasha: Okay. I'll let you standby. LRRH: May I standby for Imposter #2? Sasha: I guess so. We still have three free clues. Zoey: I'll take a clue from Best Friend. Ledia: I suppose we should use it on Ex-119 if we don't want to waste it.
🔍 [71] Best Friend

Round 3 Clue

Zoey: "The bruises! [The victim] attacked me in that locker room," says the best friend, "She started beating me, shouting something about how this was her big night to shine and I wasn't going to ruin it for her." "Why would she think that?" "Maybe she was just nervous that another imposter showed up. That guy shouted during the trial that she ruined his life."
Zoey: We revealed this clue after Plot Twist 4 was revealed.
🔍 [9] Best Friend

Zoey: "She was fine when I fled that locker room," cries the best friend, "Except for her being insane. Blaming me for everything." "Why did you leave the gun behind?" asks Zoey. "I couldn't find it! I was lucky to get out when I did. We heard footsteps. She was distracted, so I ran." The best friend seems shaken as she realized that the victim was murdered shortly after she fled. Zoey hands her a pen to sign her testimony. The best friend signed it with her left hand.
Sasha: One free clue left.
🔍 [237] Ex-119

Round 3 clue

StarTree: StarTree looked at the photos taken when the guests arrived at the entrance, and noticed a blue pickup truck with someone in the driver's seat the whole time! The license plate is registered to Mr. Ex-119!
Zoey: OMG. Let's sing! XD Sasha: We are three AA short of a bonus clue. Who say we should just end now and start guessing? Ledia: I think it would be more exciting if we just guess now. Robert: Not the best friend. Evelyn: I'll cover the best friend. Black: I think there is no reason to 'cover' her. Evelyn: I would rather avoid a TPK... 🙏 Zoey: If I sing enough to get a bonus clue, could you make the guess first, then I get one more clue before making a choice? Evelyn: *Evelyn Sings* Ledia: Let's see. Do I want excitement or a better chance to get detective credits? I want excitement. Sasha: Okay. Please choose now. Those who contribute to the bonus clue may change their mind after a bonus clue is revealed. Sasha: And to avoid TPK, only one player is needed to cover all unpopular suspects. So if all of us choose Imposter #2 or Ex-119, and the murderer turns out to be someone else, Evelyn will get the credit. Ledia: That seems more fair. Robert: Ex-119 is my first choice. 🎧 Sasha: One AA short for a bonus clue. Black: I will get the bonus clue. 🎧 Sasha: Okay. Everyone else please confirm your guess first. StarTree: Currently there are five on Imposter #2 and Ex-119, Evelyn covers the rest! StarTree is stuck with Ex-119 if his last clue turns out to be his alibi! 😭 Evelyn: StarTree may use my bonus contribution if she wants to switch. 🤗 StarTree: Wee~~! Sasha: Okay, now we reveal the last clue of Ex-119.
🔍 [64] Ex-119

Bonus Clue

Robert: Ex-119 is brought in for questioning after he is caught lying about not being at the reunion. "Okay, aliright," says Ex-119, "so I was there, but I never got out of the car. I came to confront her, but I couldn't muster the courage." "Can anyone verify that you were still in your car at 10:15?" "Well, there was a guy smoking by my car a little after 10." "Did you recognize him?" "No, I think he was just arriving."
StarTree: False alarm! 😭 Sasha: It seems that everyone picks Imposter #2. Except Evelyn. Any smokers? I don't think I saw any. Sasha: Are you sticking with Ex-119? Robert: Yes. Black: No one else ever mentioned a smoker. StarTree: There are 9 players on Imposter #2. 😭 Zoey: The scoring method is bad. XD Black: Why don't you do scoring based on the number of players who do not get it right? So in this case, if Robert and Evelyn are the only two not getting it right, then those who get it right score two points each. Zoey: That makes more sense to me, but poor Evelyn. XD Tanya: Evelyn will get 10 points if it turns out to be one of the four other suspects. Zoey: Yes, but we all know that won't happen. XD Evelyn: Playing stress free is worth something to me. 😊 Sasha: Okay. Now the choices are set. We will reveal the remaining clues. Starting with Sweetheart, Crime Scene, then Imposter #2.
🥁 [200] Sweetheart

Unused Round 3 Clue

Sasha: After confessing that he had cheated on his wife that night, Sasha asked Mr. Sweetheart if they could search his car. Mr. Sweetheart's car smells freshly cleaned. In the trunk was a laptop. Sweetheart reluctantly agreed the detectives to take it for investigation, hoping that his cooperation may keep them from interviewing his wife.
Ivy: Thanks a lot.
🥁 [184] Sweetheart

Unused Round 4 Clue

Sasha: To be thorough, Sasha brought Mr. Sweetheart in for more questioning. Mr. Sweetheart once again pleads that he will cooperate 100% as long as the detectives won't let his wife find out. "All I want to do now is focus on my soon-to-be family." "Soon-to-be?" asks Sasha, "We're pregnant," says Mr. Sweetheart, "our first."
🥁 [91] Crime Scene

Ivy: After the detectives learned that the body was discovered by the janitor, they immediately tracked down the janitor. "I doubt that I swept up any evidence," claims the janitor. "That hallway had not been used much since the last time it was cleaned. All I found was a cigarette butt."
Ivy: *Facepalm* Feeling sorry for Robert.
🥁 [113] Imposter #2

Unused Round 3 Clue

LRRH: Little Red joins Tanya's questioning of Mr. Imposter. "This was my first opportunity to compare notes before my trial begins next week," says Mr. Imposter, "I had just arrived here when suddenly the news spread about her body was found. Then no one was allowed to leave." "And where were you just before arriving here?" asks Tanya. "I was wrapping up a live webcast on my favorite site. The one where [the victim] and I first met."
Zoey: OMG I smell a TPK if not for Evelyn! XD
🥁 [226] Imposter #2

Unused Round 4 Clue

StarTree: StarTree looks into the webcast that Mr. Imposter mentioned at the Chickenhawk chat room, but could not confirm the recording time of webcasts because all of the webcasts are pre-recorded!
🛎️ SOLUTION

Sasha: The murderer is Imposter #2!
Motive: He wanted revenge for being exposed as an imposter after the victim's trial subpoenaed him as a witness. That ruined his life.
Opportunity: He learned about the victim's reunion from the chat room. He arrived at around 10 PM and stayed around the edge of the gym until he saw the victim and the best friend leave to the locker room. He was the one who smoked a cigarette while waiting. Unknown to the detectives at that time, Imposter #2 is undergoing chemo therapy for cancer.
Means: After the best friend fled the locker room, he crepted inside and tried to strange her, but the victim put up a fight. He was knocked down and discovered the gun that the best friend left behind. He knew firing the gun would draw attention, so he hit the victim with the butt of the gun. He wiped the gun afterward and briefly rejoined the reunion crowd. He planned to only wait a brief period, but by the time he tried to leave, the place was locked down.
Sasha: For the scoring... Black, Ivy, Ledia, LRRH, P4, Sasha, StarTree, Tanya, Zoey, got the culprit for 2 points each, or in the old scoring, 0.11 points each. Zoey still has the lead at 0.81 points! Sasha: That's all for this case! Please return for the next one!
Sasha thanks the players!

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 6 Plot Twist 1!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 1

Sasha: A combat veteran is found dead in a one-car crash on his way to work, which is to buy prosthetics for the navy. His own prosthetic arm is on the seat next to him. The detectives are called in to investigate if this was an accident. As they arrived, they spot something in the snow next to the car...
Sasha: For this case, I want to the original game rule where we will reveal only six clues per round. Doing this will make round 4 a lot longer, so that will be split into two rounds. The fifth round will start with player's guesses then bonus clues, followed by drumroll and solution.
🔍 [168] Crime Scene

Zoey: Zoey took issue with Red when Red said she was usually the first to arrive. "That might be true before I joined," thinks Zoey. "I/m pretty confident that I am faster than her dog." From a bird's eye view, Zoey spots some fresh footprints in the snow. Even though it snowed last night, the road is not so bad, and there are no skid marks. Why didn't he use the brakes?
Ledia: For my understand of the scene, do we know what he crashed with? Sasha: It didn't say on my card. Zoey: It doesn't say on my clue. But are we safe to assume that it crashed into ditch, the side barrier or a tree? That the other object of the collision is missing from the scene? Sasha: I don't think we can assume that. It is possible that the other car in the collision fled. May I reveal the HQ clue to see if he has been drugged? Sasha: Yes. Evelyn: What about the strategy of revealing only crime scene or HQ? Ledia: I don't see Tanya here, and I think if we could attribute the overwhelming win to Tanya, I think that strategy would make the game too easy. Please make it more challenging, Evelyn. Evelyn: Okay. 😅
🔍 [278] Headquarters

Evelyn: Evelyn takes the body while the lab takes the car and the footprint. "The footprint is from a man's shoe of the leather shoes brand Oxford!" says StarTree
StarTree: Wee~~! May I get a clue from a suspect who is male and most likely wear leather shoes? Sasha: Hmm... No promises.
🔍 [252] Car Owner

Ledia: At the crime scene, Ledia ran the license plate and discovered something interesting. "That car is registered not to the victim, but his ex-business partner. Given the footprint, I wonder if he was in the car also."
Ledia: Who else is playing? Don't be shy just because there are only six clues this round. Evelyn: If you say it like that... 😅 Sasha: There are three free clues left in this round. LRRH: Can I get a suspect that my dog can find? Sasha: I wouldn't know what that means. LRRH: Someone who smells the closest? Sasha: I suppose I can give you someone who might carry a unique smell. But that is just my guess. No promise that the clue will have anything to do with it. LRRH: Okay.
🔍 [55] The Seductress

LRRH: I have problem RPing this clue. It has too much information that none of us should know. 🐣 Zoey: XD LRRH: The clue connects this suspect to two other suspects and the victim. Sasha: Maybe you can go the oracle route like P4? LRRH: Red wants to do something different.
LRRH: Sirius seems not to like a certain smell in the car and wouldn't enter. "What is it, Sirius?" says Red. Unlike Ivy, Red can't normally telepathically understand Sirius. So Red brought the dog to ivy.
Ivy: "Ugh," Ivy does her facepalm. "Sirius just gave me vision of a woman trying to steal a competitor's prototype prosthetic technology. She has a personal lobbist, and wooed two other men. One of them is the victim. Give me some time to figure out how to get you the names from the vision."
Ivy: I think it will be okay if we set the replace "Suspect" by the title of the two other men.
🔍 [288] Seductress's Lobbyist

💗
Ivy: In one of the visions that Sirius gave Ivy, there was a man combing his black hair in front of a full-length mirror. He says, "Why did [the victim] turn on me after all I did for him? I gave him his life back after the war, and how did he repay me? This is all [the seductress]'s fault. She pushed him too hard on [company name]. I kept telling her we need to take it slow. Now everything is falling apart. Even that [seductress's prey] now wants to sue me. Thank God for waivers..." Ivy forces wake herself and immediately jogs down names before they would fade from her short term memory. Ivy says on the channel, "Siruis brought us some names to investigate, please listen well..."
StarTree: StarTree will look up the prey!
🔍 [130] Seductress's Prey #2

StarTree: According to Ivy, Prey #2 lost one leg fighting a war, and blames the seductress's company for losing his other leg! StarTree narrowed down to a 22-yearold who is having a routine overnight check-up!
Sasha: That's six clues for Round 1. Please return for Plot Twist 2!

Ivy: Ivy is examining the car where the brake fluid had leaked. "It has not been determined whether the brake line leaked before or after impact. I will keep you posted." says Ivy.
🔍 [76] Car Owner

Ledia: The car owner seems shocked when Ledia told him the news. "[The victim] was going through some personal hard times and lost his own car. So I gave him an old one." says the car owner. "Was the car in disrepair?" "She had about 130K miles when I gave her up. Never had a problem." Ledia notices that the car owner's left hand is bandaged. "What happened there?"
🔍 [45] Last caller

Round 1 Clue

Kisaragi: "Kisa, the victim was wearing a headset when he was found. And his phone showed that the last call was made at 10:36 PM. Please investigate the caller." says Ivy.
🔮 [24] Darter

Round 1 Clue

P4: P4 is practicing oracle skill with mom. P4, P4, what do you see? P4 sees the victim's photo nailed on a wall, and a man throws darts at it.
Sasha: Every suspect is revealed. The seductress and the lobbyist don't seem to have motive to kill the victim. Prey #2 is a double amputee, the chance of him plotting to murder someone is probably low. Ledia: that leaves only the car owner and the darter. Sasha: You can't reveal a clue from the same card twice in a round, except using bonus clue. Black: Let's hear from Prey#2 his side of the story.
🔍 [146] Prey #2

Black: Black follows the identity narrowed down by StarTree to a leatherworks company where the Prey #2 now works.
Black: My clue mentioned an argument between Prey #2 and the Lobbyist. it suggests that the following clue from Prey #2 will talk about that argument. Ledia: Seems like we can skip the Lobbyist, for now. Sasha: And that's all clues for this round. Please return for the next round!
❔ [80] Seductress

❔ [267] Lobbyist

⭐ PLOT TWIST 3

StarTree: StarTree found from camera footage that the car following the victim belongs to the seductress!
Ledia: The plot is all over the place. Evelyn: I would like to reveal the Headquarters clue.
🔍 [230] Headquarters

Ivy: The victim's car has evidence of sabotage. The brake line has been leaking brake fluid as he was driving until it eventually failed. The cause appears to be nitric acid.
🔍 [105] Crime Scene

Zoey: Zoey goes to the victim's house to look for clues of the sabotage. "The neighbors say that he usually kept the car parked in the driveway," reports Zoey. "I don't see anything unsual on the driveway except a small divot in the cement. It looks fresh."
🔍 [1] Prey #2

Black: "All I wanted was some kind of compensation for being a filed guinea pig," says Prey #2. "What happened?" asks Black. "Their skimpy copper fittings agve out. I fell really hard, causing a compound fracture in my other leg so bad that it, too had to be amputated." Black notices a stockpile of acid, "Is that what your company makes?" "Nah, we use that for preparing the leather."
Black: I think Prey #2 does not know that acid could damage the copper fittings. He is probably not the murderer. Ledia: I think from Zoey's report, the murderer is someone who plays golf.
🔍 [59] Car Owner

Ledia: "My hand? It's nothing, just an acid burn, almost healed." says the Car Owner, "I was using it to help break up a slab of limestone on one of my properties. I got careless." "What business was it that you and [the victim] were into together?" "House flipping. Times were good until the housing market crashed. Our relationship crashed about the same time. I've barely seen him since."
Ledia: He is still my prime suspect.
🔍 [80] Seductress

Round 2 clue

LRRH: Little Red tells StarTree that she wants to find the seductress after learning that the car following the victim was hers."But the driver of the car seems to be a man!" says StarTree.
LRRH: I suppose that would be the lobbyist.
🔍 [267] Therapist

Round 2 clue

Evelyn: Evelyn sends Red to the victim's physical therapist to ask about the ill-fitting prosthetic arm, after learning that the "lobbyist" and his therapist are the same person.
❔ [161] Last caller

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 6 Plot Twist 4!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 4

Sasha: Okay. Not revealing every clue in each round makes the plot very hard to follow. Please do your best.
Kisaragi: From the victim's phone, the last text message from the last caller was "If you don't stop, I'll tell him."
P4: P4 saw that Mr. Darter wears Oxford shoes.
Ledia: I think we should check Darter, but I am planning to finish the last clue for Car Owner. Ledia: And I agree that there seem to be too much gaps in the plot. I think I prefer revealing all clues for each round and get only two free clues in Round 4. Evelyn: I agree with Ledia. Sasha: Okay. Next case we'll go back to revealing all clues in each round until Round 4. P4: Could P4 reveal the second clue from Darter? Zoey: I think we should reveal the four fourth round clues first, then decide on which suspect we should catch up. Evelyn: Then I start with the lab. Sasha: Just to be clear, if we reveal all clues in each round, you won't have this luxury of being able to reveal four round four clues for free. Zoey: I know, but why would I want to make it harder now that we hardly understand the plot? XD
🔍 [236] Headquarters

Ivy: Ivy informs the detectives that nitric acid is not too difficult to make by anyone who can search for the recipe online. The ingredients include hydrochloric acid and nitric salt, like Chilean saltpeter, which is also found in rock salt, and copper.
Evelyn: I suppose the victim was conscious when the car crashed. 😖
🔍 [219] Crime Scene

StarTree: StarTree got the recent phone records of Ms. Last Caller, which shows several recent calls were made to and received from Prey #2!
Ledia: Well, it seems that we might not need to talk to Ms. Last Caller if the person who will do the murder is Prey #2. I continue with the car owner.
🔍 [188] Car Owner

Ledia: With the information from Ivy, Ledia asks the Car Owner what acid he burned his hand with. "Sulfuric acid... why?"
Ledia: If I understand this correctly, his answer is a negative evidence because sulfuric is acid is made of sulfur and nitric acid is made of nitrogen. You can make nitric acid from sulfuric acid. Nitric acid is HNO3. The acid part (H) can come from HCl Hydrochloric acid or H2 SO4 Sulfuric acid. Ledia: Well then. Inconclusive. Ivy: As I said, the ingredients to make it is not too difficult to obtain. Anyone who have some understanding or familiarity of chemistry can do that. Your Car Owner suspect normally uses chemical, so he might be above average in his familiarity in handling or mixing chemicals. Ledia: Do you mean he shouldn't have burned his hand unless he was trying to make something he wasn't familiar with? Ivy: That's too much speculation for me to comment. Ledia: Fair enough. Zoey: To be honest, hearing "anyone can do it" from Ivy is not very convincing. XD Evelyn: 😅 Ledia: If we can't eliminate any suspect, this case would be quite interesting. Black: I continue with Prey #2
🔍 [109] Prey #2

Black: "I like my new job here," says Prey #2, "We make quality stuff, so I've managed to regain some sense of the pride that [the prosthetics company] stole from me. I even have a new girlfriend now, and..." "If you were so upset with [the prosthetics company], why didn't you sue?" asks Black. "Unfortunately I signed a waive. It's in here," says Prey #2 as he moves a large bag out of the way to open his desk drawer. Black notices an unusual stamp on the bag that reads, 'Made in Chile.'
Zoey: Uh-oh, we've got motive and means. XD Black: If the last caller knows where the victim lives, he has opportunity also. Sasha: Two free clues remaining. Nowhere close to any bonus clue.
🔍 [161] Last caller

Round 2 Clue

Kisaragi: "This is all my fault!" cries the Last Caller, "The last thing I ever said to him was, 'I hate you.' Then I heard a loud noise and his phone went dead. This ia ll m fault!" "May I ask what the argument was about?" asks Kisa. The last caller looks at her with red eyes, but does not answer. Kisa asks her again.
Zoey: I think... I am okay with revealing her remaining clues in drumroll. If she and Prey #2 are accomplices, who do you think was the one who did the actual sabotage at the car? Zoey: Good question. 🤔 Zoey: * Zoey sings* XD Sasha: One free clue remaining. Evelyn: I would like to reveal the clue for the therapist. 😖
🔍 [11] Therapist

Round 3 clue

LRRH: Little Red arrives and asks the therapist if he knows the victim. "Yes, he's an ex-client." "Do you know that he died yesterday in a car crash?" The therapist sits down hard in his chair. "We found his prosthetic arm on the seat next to him. Is it one of yours?" asks Little Red. The therapist stares at the arm without responding.
Sasha: Okay! Time to pick your suspect! Zoey: This is too wild! XD Black: Prey #2. Evelyn: I cover. 😅 Zoey: Covering doesn't sound so bad. XD Ledia: Prey #2 also. I don't see a motive for the car owner. LRRH: Prey #2. At least he is one of the three in Sirius' vision. Prey #2. He seems to have both ingredients, and the bag of Chilean product seems to be recent and not belong to the work place. Ledia: Compelling. Sasha: I'm sold. Prey #2. Zoey: Fine. Prey #2. XD Kisaragi: Same. Sasha: @P4, @StarTree? P4: What about the shoe? The Darter might be on scene, but that isn't enough to show he is the murderer if the main cause of death is the sabotaged brake line. Where the car crashes is not the primary crime scene. P4: 💟 P4: P4 chooses Prey #2 also. StarTree: There are eight players on Prey #2! StarTree doesn't know what to do! Sasha: It doesn't matter. I'll just round off. StarTree: Should StarTree call Tanya to join? Zoey: But she didn't play the whole game. XD StarTree: What if the AFK players are the cover? Then Evelyn can get some detective credits! Tanya: I'll choose Prey #2 if that's okay. Zoey: Why? If you are joining now, you could just cover and Evelyn can get some credits. XD Tanya: Evelyn may also get credits for covering by herself. But I don't think she wants to take part in choosing a murderer. Ledia: Is that true, Evelyn? Evelyn: I guess that's true. 😅 Zoey: Wait a minute. I thought the deal with Evelyn joining was that if she got it right, she gets to rez the victim. Evelyn: I don't think I know any of them enough to raise them. Zoey: What do you need to know to save someone's life? XD If he was just hospitalized, you would have saved him, right? What is the difference if he was dead. 🤔 Evelyn: I don't know. I need to know how they lived to tell if they will have the will to continue carrying the trauma. 😖 That makes no sense. XD As I said, if the victim was in a car crash and went into a coma, you would have saved him. You wouldn't have considered anything about trauma or their life. XD Tanya: Let's just continue. Zoey: ... Ok... I feel that I asked something I shouldn't have. LRRH: It has to do with what rez means. Evelyn, it doesn't have to be the same as what you know. You can change it to what you want to happen. If you are continuing the conversation, they I would say why doesn't Red rez the victims? Red can rez also. XD LRRH: 🐣 Sasha: I'm okay with how the game has been. We are three AA short of any bonus clue. I say we don't make it to any bonus clue. So now it is drumroll time. Although the plan was to split the guessing and solution to another day, I forgot about it. So let's do it. The order is Seductress, Therapist, Last Caller, Darter. I'll have Tanya do some so that she can be considered a player this game.
🥁 [32] Therapist

Unused Round 4 clue

LRRH: The therapist takes a good look of the arm, then looks relieved. "This is indeed one of our arms, but it is not [the victim]'s It is too small. Besides, he stopped wearing ours." "Why did he stop?" "Not sure. We tried to convince him to switch. He is in charge of procuring new prosthetics for the Navy. He tried out our arm for awhile, but then he seemed to lose interest with no explanation."
🥁 [99] Seductress

Unused Round 3 clue

Tanya: "I have no idea what you are talking about," says the seductress when the detectives ask about her car, "Someone must have stolen it." "Then returned it?" asks Tanya. The seductress does not response. "Then you don't mind if we search your car?" asks Tanya. The seductress reluctantly agrees. The detectives dust the steering wheel for fingerprints, and finds a match for a person they would refer to as Mr. Darter.
🥁 [90] Darter

Unused Round 2 Clue

Ledia: While questioning the car owner, Ledia asks if he knows of anyone who might harm the victim. The car owner points to Mr. Darter, who the victim had accused of stealing medical supplies to sell online. "[Darter] is not in prison only because of his Admiral father," says the car owner.
🥁 [121] Darter

Unused Round 3 Clue

Tanya: Tanya vists Mr. Darter to ask him about the car. Mr. Darter was shocked. "She loaned me her car and wanted me to run an errand for her. Why would she say I stole it?"
🥁 [132] Darter

Unused Round 4 Clue

Tanya: "Look, it was [the seductress]'s idea for me to follow [the victim] for the right moment to steal his prosthetic," says Mr. Darter, "So when I saw that he had died in the crash, I impulsively stole his arm and replaced it with one from my trunk. But I didn't cause the accident, and I sure didn't steal her car!"
🥁 [205] Seductress

Unused Round 4 clue

Tanya: The detectives return to confront the seductress about her lies. "Mr. Darter had told us about your scheme to rip off [the victim]." says Tanya. "I'm not trying to rip off anyone!" says the seductress, "It was [the victim] that was reneging on our procurement deal. I have every right to try to get something out of it."
🥁 [139] Last Caller

Unused Round 3 clue

Kisaragi: Last Caller confessed that she had a child with the victim when she was a teenager, but the victim had insisted that the child was not his and did not pay child support. "When I threatened to go to his superiors, he... he beat me," says the last caller, "Now I don't know what I'd do if I didn't at least have [Prey #2]'s shoulder to cry on."
🥁 [155] Last Caller

Unused Round 4 clue

Kisaragi: "We met at the hospital," says Last Caller regarding Prey #2, "He was on my work detail. We became instant friends after I happened to mention [the victim], since he has had his own problems with him. He even blames him for the loss of one of his legs. He truly cares, especially after I told him about the beatings."
Zoey: Well. I would forgive if Evelyn doesn't want to rez the victim. XD Sasha: Next is the solution!
🛎️ SOLUTION

Sasha: The murderer was Prey #2!
Motive: Revenge for the victim for pushing him to use that leg from the seductress's company, and for beating the Last Caller to avoid paying for child support. He planned to kill all three including the seductress and the therapist.
Means: He search online for ways to plan a murder that looks like an accident. He used acid from work and bought Chilean saltpeter, and used the copper fitting from his failed prosthetic leg to make nitric acid.
Opportunity: The solution didn't really explain how he got to meddling the car, except that he knew beforehand that the victim drives that car.
Aftermath: Prey #2 is eventually prosecuted on first-degree murder charges.
Scores: Black, Ledia, LRRH, Ivy, Sasha, Zoey, Kisaragi, P4, StarTree, Tanya gets 0.1 points each. Zoey still has the lead with 0.9 points! Sasha: Please return for the next game!
Sasha thanks the players!

Magic Bakery

This is Magic Bakery Plays NCIS, Case 7 Plot Twist 1!
Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

⭐ PLOT TWIST 1

Sasha: A body is found hanging from a pipe in the basement at his house. His laptop is still running with the webcam pointed at him. From the recording, we could see that the man said, "This suicide's for you!" as he begins to put a noose around his head.
Sasha: For this game we are doing it the same way as Case 5. We will reveal all clues for the first three rounds, and leave Round 4 with only two free clues. Ivy: Question: If you keep the same number of free clues, shouldn't round 4 have no free clue? Sasha: Okay I misspoke. We will reveal all clues in Round 1 and 2, then only six in Round 3. That leaves Round 4 with only two free clues. Ivy: I'll take the HQ clue.
🔍 [269] Reverend

LRRH: As Red arrives at the crime scene, a religious group seems to have gathered near the crime scene cheering for the death of the victim. "God has exercised his righteousness once again!" chants the Reverend.
🔍 [250] Headquarters

Ivy: Ivy checks the encrypted files of the victim's laptop and discovers that the video of the suicide was editted. "Someone appeared to be in the basement while the victim was hanging himself, and editted the recording," says Ivy.
Zoey: I start with the crime scene
🔍 [153] Crime Scene

Zoey: The rope that hung the victim is hung from a pipe at the ceiling above the bottom of the stairs. Zoey notices that the pipe section that the robe is attached to is more shiny than the surrounding pipes. That section seems to be recently replaced, as there are still metal filings around it.
🔍 [274] The Victim

Evelyn: "The victim's blood alcohol content was high, he was probably unconscious at the time of death" says Evelyn, "Also, the victim has an end stage of liver disease. I am checking the white spots on his tongue next."
Zoey: Wait. The victim has his own card? Does that mean we haven't ruled out suicide? I guess that is what that means. But since he was probably unconcious at the time of death, he probably didn't commit suicide. I want to start with someone who would normally be in the house.
🔍 [57] Older Brother

Ledia: The person who found the body was the victim's older brother, who does not live with the victim. Ledia finds the brother at his own home and asks about the discovery. "I hope I didn't push him over the edge," says the brother, "We had a big argument the last time I saw him. I'd gone back to apologize, but there he was, hanging."
The question I really wanted to ask is how he discovered the body in the basement. Do we assume that he can enter the house? Or he peeked through a window to the basement? However, the next clue from him will most likely be about the argument.
🔍 [7] Stalker

Tanya: The victim's record shows that he once took out a restraining order on a 61-yearold female, claiming that she was stalking him. Given Ivy's report that the video of the victim has been editted, Tanya visits Ms. Stalker to check the manner she might have stalked the victim. "You mean that rat who came by here a few months back asking all sorts of personal questions about my husband?" says Ms. Stalker, "Something smelled, so I followed him a few times to find out the truth. I sure didn't like what I saw."
I think we need to find a suspect who has the technical skill to edit videos. Sasha: I've got a 53-yearold blogger and a 24-yearold. Black: I'll take the blogger.
🔍 [142] Blogger

Black: Black searches online for the victim and finds a separatist blog that mentions the victim by name. The blog post calls for the death for many local people, and cites the victim as an example.
🔍 [35] Bully

StarTree: Tanya asked StarTree to look for a suspect who might be tech-savvy. The only candidate that StarTree finds is a 24-yearold who was put in prison for a year for beating up the victim, sending him to the hospital. "The Bully was released from prison two weeks ago and moved back to the victim's town!" says StarTree.
It might be a little early to speculate, but according to Evelyn's report, the victim was most like unconscious from alcohol at the time of death. So I am imagining the victim drank with someone he trusted, but his trusted person turned out to be a murderer. In that direction, the older brother is the prime suspect. Tanya: That is possible. Sasha: Are we so good at it now that we can tell who the murderer is in round one? Ledia: Do I get extra credit if I pick now and the older brother turns out to be the murderer? Sasha: If I give you a bonus now, it would be unfair to others who didn't get a bonus. Ledia: But we have only played 5 games. The later you start the more unfairness the scoring remains. Sasha: What do others think? Evelyn: How many games are there total? Sasha: This game has 9 cases. We might replay case 1 where Tanya and I won't play. Zoey: I think players who explain their reasoning to help others understand should get detective credits. Evelyn: I agree with Zoey. Sasha: First, for my understanding, early guesses and explanations are welcomed. No one is saying that such discussion is spoiling the game. Is that correct? Evelyn: I like the explanation. Tanya: I think it is better with explanations. Sasha: Okay, how do people feel if a meritful detective comment is worth 0.1 credits? Ivy: I think it should be 1 credit or 1 detective EXP. We can use the same formula for the level by taking the square root. Sasha: Okay, so, suppose we go back to the old cases and tally the meritorious moments to get the EXP and Level. How many credits should it worth for guessing the correct suspect? Tanya: It could be none, since with correct explanations, most, if not all, should reach the same conclusion, as what we have seen so far. Blind guesses shouldn't get any detective credits. Zoey: In that scoring scheme, simply agreeing with someone would earn no EXP. You have to point out something new to get EXP. And if someone beats you to it, you don't get the EXP either I assume. Evelyn: I think that is fair Sasha: My impression is that if we do that, Ivy, Ledia, Tanya will be in the lead. StarTree, Red, P4 might have no EXP. Is that okay? Zoey: But you only need to say one meritful thing that is detective/logical to be level 1. I don't think that would be too hard Sasha: In summary, the proposal is this: During the game, if you say anything meritful, you would get one daily merit EXP for the guild participation. That point maxes out at one EXP per day. On a completely separate scoring for detective EXP, you get one detective EXP per merit, with no daily maximum. To get those EXP, you don't need to be right in guessing the murderer, and guessing the murderer correctly doesn't award any detective EXP. Ledia: I think being right should worth something. Tanya: I think it is worth not having your merit EXP reevaluated and demerited. Ledia: I think if you don't keep score on who is right, the game itself would be less fun. Ivy: You may track your own success rate. Ledia: Fair enough. Sasha: Okay. So I marked some lines from today where I think is worth Detective EXP. The tally is Ledia 3 EXP, Evelyn 1 EXP, Tanya 1 EXP. Any objection? (And those who are getting guild merit from this thread are Ivy, Ledia, Sasha, Tanya, Zoey.) Ivy: Not an objection, but I think it is possible to tally detective EXP using JQuery, since a person can only get detective EXP from a thread. Sasha: I would like that upgrade. Ivy: The thread would need tags such as data-DXP-Ledia. Sasha: My script maker side is ready. Ivy: I added the function DXP. Have fun.
Sasha thanks the players!

⭐ PLOT TWIST 2

Zoey: At the crime scene, Zoey notices not only the pipe segment that where the rope hangs is new, but also the step underneath the rope. In the dumpster outside, Zoey finds what appears to be the original step, broken in half. On the other side of the step are chisel marks. "This step has been cracked so that it would break suddenly," Zoey says on the channel.
It seems that the victim was doing a prank but an accomplice made it real. Sasha: Tiny announcement: If you haven't noticed, I started tallying the merits and you can see the count in the Player Scores section. Tanya: I would like to do something like that for @Dungeon. Ledia: I have an idea. What if we multiply the EXP by the success rate to get the actual Detective EXP? Tanya: That seems reasonable to me. Sasha: What if someone only picks a suspect when it is easy? Ledia: My impression is that all the cases are about the same difficulty, and we don't get a player who would join then choose not to pick a suspect when the case seems hard. So I don't think that is a problem. Sasha: I will think about it. I will make the code count how many games a person played and how many wins they have. For games where a player chose to cover, I would just have them choose the same as Tanya. LRRH: What kind of comment do I need to make to get detective EXP? Sasha: Something that would help others be a better detective, that is not too obvious and said too often. Like... we are looking for someone who is both Tech-savvy and Handy, and has a motive to kill the victim? Sasha: I would count that as 1 DXP. Black: The Blogger owns a hardware store.
🔍 [83] Blogger

Black: Black sees the Blogger at his make-shift garage office featuring a Swastika mural and a picture of lynching. "The Blogger fits the profile so far," says Black on the channel, "We need more evidence to vet him as a suspect."
Black: The clue says that the NCIS detectives take him in for further questioning. In Panarcadia, it is necessary to "take him in"? Why can't the questioning be done in place? Tanya: It is not necessary to take him in. There is no active threat. We can't detain him either.
🔍 [197] Crime Scene

Zoey: The broken step has a piece of shoe canvas embedded in the broken edge. "It seems that the person who stepped on and broke the step was wearing sneakers. Was the body wearing sneakers?" Zoey asks on the channel.
🔍 [255] The Victim

Evelyn: Meanwhile, Evelyn is checking the victim's insurance record and finds that he had sought help at an institution. The institution doctor said that the victim had tried to commit suicide twice, once with sleeping pills, the other by slitting his wrists. In both times, his brother interceded. The doctor added, "suicide is still considered a violation in this state. That puts the victim's property at jeopardy."
Evelyn: I'm sorry, Zoey. The clue does not mention if the victim was wearing sneakers. What is the law about? Will the state take the property of a suicide victim? It seems to say that the brother has a property interest in keeping the victim alive. Ledia: So the brother has no motive.
🔍 [92] Older Brother

Ledia: Ledia asks the older brother what they argued about. "It's just that I'm up for induction into our local chapter of the Freemasons. So I asked him to keep a low profile for a while," says the brother, "one that doesn't involve him flaunting his lifestyle all the time."
Ledia: I am not familiar with the Freemasons. But what is the lifestyle of the victim?
🔍 [279] Reverend

LRRH: Red talks to the Reverend who cheered at the victim's death. "What did [the victim] do?" asks Red. "Enough to burn for eterntiy," says the Reverend, "We've got video proofs."
🔍 [107] Headquarters

Ivy: The laptop of the victim appears to have been wiped of fingerprints, but Ivy is able to get a partial print matching his older brother. Knowing that Ledia is visiting him, Ivy calls Ledia.
Ledia: "We've found your fingerprints on your brother's laptop." says Ledia. "I lent him my laptop months ago. I even forgot about it," says the brother, "I may have had issues with his lifestyle, but he was my brother. I lvoed him very much."
🔍 [42] Stalker

Tanya: The stalker is a widow whose husband died in a stand-off as a militia man for tax evasion. The stalker herself was sent to prison for 3 years for similar charges. When she got out, she told a local newspaper that she still distrusts anyone connected to the state govenment. She is paranoided that they are out to get her.
This suspect doesn't seem like she would murder anyone. She seems more afraid for her own safety than to be "proactive." However, she hasn't said what exactly she saw when she stalked him. So there is a possibility that her testimony will reveal a vital clue. It is the stalkers don't lie observation from the other case.
🔍 [176] Bully

Kisaragi: Kisa visits the Bully to ask about his assault charge. The Bully explains, "[The victim] first hired me as his back-up during census taking. We became friendly, then one night I was drunk. I've served my time, and he forgave me, everyone knows that. I don't want to talk about that night anymore. I don't even want to hear anyone else talking about that night. I avoid him now, I just want my respect back, okay?"
Kisaragi: The suspect card says this suspect is homophobic. The clues so far have not said that the victim is homosexual. This suspect is 24 yearold. He might be the person who wears the sneaker that stepped on the step. Ledia: I don't get the context if that is the case. Who set up the trap step? I don't see how the broken step is related to the murder. Was it replaced before the murder? For the murder? Or after the murder to cover up something? Zoey: The Plot Twist text was suggesting that it was broken to cover up something, but not necessarily the murder. I think the victim was hung elsewhere, then relocated to the basement. I think there should be evidence if the body had been dragged or relocated. Such as the back of the shoe dragging on the broken edge of the step? The step might have broken because it was holding the weight of two people. The Bully was a drinker. The Bully might have lied about avoiding the victim. He has a motive to lie becuse he wants "respect". We would want to know the time of death of the victim so we could ask people where they were. Sasha: Please return for Plot Twist 3 where more will be revealed!
Sasha thanks the players!

🚨 PLOT TWIST 3

LRRH: Red watched the videos that the Reverend showed her. Those videos were sermons where the Reverend talks about how bad the victim was. "This is not proof of what the victim did," says Red, "This is hearsay." "If you don't trust me you would at least trust his brother. We are going to have lunch together near his pharmacist office if you want to join us."
LRRH: I made some slight changes to the scene. If it seems odd, it is because of my changes. In the original plot twist, the Reverend did not invite the detectives to have lunch with them. The detectives saw the older brother in the audience in one of the videos, and when they tried to find him at his pharmacist office, they learn that he is having lunch with the Reverend. LRRH: I made the change because in my subplot it is not obvious to the Reverend that Red is a detective. Red just appears to be a potential follower. I kept the highlight that the older brother is a pharmacist because the victim was probably unconscious when he was killed. According to Evelyn. Sasha: Okay. So the default setting of this round, Round 3, is that there are only 6 free clues. Round 4 will have only 2 free clues. Before the plot twist, I would have suggested that we skip the brother and the reverend. It was because the brother had saved the victim twice, and the reverend is too open about his hostility to the victim. I think the reverend wants the victim dead, but did not commit the murder himself. That is why he feels so free talking about it. But in the case of the garden gnome secretary, she, the murderer, was also openly hostile to the victim.
🔍 [282] The Victim

Evelyn: Evelyn looks deeper into the victim's psychiatric file which states that the victim was diagnosed as manic depressive, capable of huge mood swings. During his lows, he can be withdrawn and intolerant of others. During his highs, he can be overly friendly and forgiving. His case file also says that he has an inability to read other people's intentions.
Evelyn: I'm sorry my clue doesn't seem very useful. 😖 A person who can take advantage of that would be the brother, and possibly the bully if he knew the victim enough.
🔍 [266] Headquarters

James: James decides that the team can't have just one medical examiner so he checks the body and Evelyn's notes. The victim's arms have no signs of being tied up, yet his palms have abrasions. Did he regret and try to save himself? Or was it never meant to be real and he was surprised?
Sasha: James's title is now Medical Examiner.
🔍 [102] Crime Scene

Zoey: Zoey returns to the crime scene for more clues but has no luck finding something new. She remembers Ledia complaining that several suspects have mentioned the victim's life style, but none of them is descriptive about what the life style is. So Zoey decides to ask for a neighbor witness. To her surprise, most of the neighbors she talks to do not remember seeing the victim for quite a while. Except a neighbor who lives across the street. "I briefly saw him a couple times recently. Once, he was heading inside with [the Bully] who assaulted him. I only saw [the Bully] one other time. My guess is that [the victim] hired him to do some yard work."
First, I think this witness has no reason to lie. So the Bully was lying about trying to avoid the victim. Second, my impression from the neighbor's recount is that the victim and the Bully entered the hosue together, then the victim was killed, and the Bully replaced the step after the victim was killed. Ledia: It is a bit metagaming, but I think such a strong association is coming too early for the Bully to be the murderer. Sasha: Three clues remaining for Round 3. Another interpretation is that the sightings happen before the victim was murdered. The Bully and the Victim entered, the step broke, and the Bully fixed it. The victim was still alive when the Bully left. Then the brother came to look for the victim, possibly took the opportunity to kill the victim because he already got a noose on himself. But this won't make sense unless the brother now has a motive to kill his brother instead of save him. I suggest we let go of the Reverend and the Blogger. I think if we talk to the brother we will know about the lunch meeting, and so far we have nothing that would connect the Blogger to the victim's house.
🔍 [20] Stalker

Tanya: Tanya reads the notes that the victim made while doing census about two months ago when he visited the stalker. The victim reported that [Ms. Stalker] was unusually hostile towards him, and she kept repeating, "You are not here taking census! What are you really here for? I swear to get to the bottom of things." The victim's note says that he believed Ms. Stalker might take matters in her own hands.
Tanya: I didn't find that clue very helpful.
🔍 [74] Older Brother

Ledia: Ledia arrives at the lunch meeting to break up a fist fight between the Brother and the Reverend. After separating them, Ledia asks the brother what it was about. "It was over nothing," says the brother, "just some differences about medical issues." Ledia then asks about the video where he was clapping for the Reverend who was denouncing the victim. "That was for someone else's benefit," whispers the brother.
Ledia: I suppose Red should know exactly what the fight was about, but since the clue is mysterious to me, I decided that it would better if I join the scene knowing nothing. I think the "someone else" that would benefit might be the Bully. The Bully might go to the same church. Sasha: One clue left for this round.
🔍 [217] Bully

Kisaragi: "[Mr. Bully], I thought you said that you hadn't seen [the victim] since you were released," says Kisa. The Bully's face goes pale. "That was only briefly! I just didn't want to talk about it. [The victim] offered to hire me to design a site for him after I told him I learned how to design websites during my year in prison. But I said no as soon as I realized what he was up to."
I think the Bully will tell us what the victim was planning to do, such as faking his own death to please someone or to start a new life. If we believe that is true, then we might not need the fourth clue from him. Tanya: The only two Tech-savvy persons are the Bully and the Blogger. 3B: *3B Sings* Evelyn: 3B, help us. 🤗 *Evelyn sings* 3B: Actually I was wondering if it is too late to discuss manga draft. Sasha: Okay! There is no use overthinking before Plot Twist 4. Please return for the final round!

202212112019|◀ 2022 DEC 22 THU 10:23 PM
Wyvern Island

This is about drafting for Chapter 16 Page 12. 3B: On page 11, the team is bursting the bubbles while waiting for concrete examples of self-interest being good. Then Sasha appears with a card. What card will Sasha play?

Sasha: I have a few cards I can play: Abilene Paradox, Duolingo, and "Compassion as Self-Interest."
3B: I think it is better to play one at a time.
Sasha: Then I play the Abilene Paradox card. It is an example where being assertive to one's self-interest can prevent the group from doing something none of them want.
3B: And what would be Zoey, Ledia, or Red's reaction to that card? I think Evelyn took "her turn" so I would prefer if one of the other three be the main responder.
LRRH: I agree with the example. It is something I always want people to understand when I ask for their wishes. I want them to tell me what they really want instead of what they think is possible or compatible with others.
3B: My plan is that when Sasha uses the card, the content of a bubble starts to take shape as a monster or something. Then when Red agrees with it, it either turns into an item or it gives Red an item.
3B: Thus the questions: What things represents Abilene Paradox?
Ledia: The problem that knowing the Abilene Paradox would solve is a water element problem
LRRH: I imagine a cactus. 🌵 Ledia: May I know why? LRRH: It stores excess water. Ledia: Good idea.
3B: I think next we need an example to bound the cactus. Or it would mean that being truthful to what one wants is always good.
LRRH: Isn't that somewhat good or almost always good? I don't need to find a counter example if I am not trying to argue that it is always good.
Sasha: Let's say after Red makes friend with the cactus, it fires up and thinks that being truthful to one's self-interest is always good. Then what do you do?
3B: I think I have enough for a page, and that is a good place to have Ledia or Zoey response. So please wait for me to draw it. 3B thanks all for the ideas.

Sasha: ⚠️ The game content is rated "Age teen to adult"

🚨 PLOT TWIST 4

Zoey: Zoey returned to the crime scene after a rainstorm and spots a pipe section with chisel marks just under the mud. "If the rope was hanging from this section, the pipe would have snapped," Zoey reports.
Sasha: Only two free clues in this round. We are 1 AA short of a bonus clue. Zoey: *Sings*
🔍 [158] Stalker

Tanya: Tanya interviews the Stalker's parole officer and learned that Ms Stalker's bunkmate in prison committed suicide with socks, after the Stalker took issue with the bunkmate being gay.
Tanya: I didn't find that clue very helpful. I apologize. I was hoping that the stalker saw something about the victim. Sasha: One free clue left and there is one bonus clue. I think the brother and the bully equally likely to have an alibi in their last clue. I think it is safer to reveal a clue from headquarters or the crime scene, since we don't have any clue pointing to anyone specific. What is the odd that there is more to find at the crime scene? XD I say let's do both the headquarters and crime scene.
🔍 [238] Headquarters

💗
StarTree: StarTree watches the unedited version of the decrypted video and sees the new pipe in place! The victim signaled to an off-camera helper, who moved the camera out of the way for a few seconds, then refocused the camera back on the victim, where the rope was re-positioned at the center at the new pipe section. That is when the video picks up where the edited version started!
The replacement of the pipe seems to be relevant to the murder. The Bully is my prime suspect. Sasha: Well we are out of free clues, so this is the time to make your choices. Ledia, Ivy, Kisaragi, 3B, Evelyn, Zoey, and StarTree may change their mind after bonus clue. Evelyn: How does cover work? Sasha: Hmm... cover is for RP. For the win ratio, you have to pick one, or follow someone if you don't want to pick. Evelyn: I cover and pick the victim. 😖 Zoey: So you think it was a suicide? What about the victim being unconscious? I don't know what happened, but doesn't the video showed that the victim was conscious since he signaled the camera person. I pick the Bully. I think he might be lying about leaving once he learned about the victim's plan. LRRH: I pick the Bully, but I also want a bonus clue. 🐣 Sasha: Four AA short of second bonus clue. Kisaragi: Bully. Zoey: When in doubt, follow the crowd. XD At least if we fail I am not behind. XD. Bully Ledia: It is definitely easier to pick having contributed to bonus clue. Bully. 3B: Bully. Sasha: It makes no sense not to contribute. Arcacia help us! I pick the vicim for now. Sasha: Two more AA for bonus clue #2. So. The way it works is that after revealing bonus clue #1, everyone who got an AA can change their mind. But after revealing bonus clue #2, only those who got two AA can change their mind. Ledai: That seems fair. StarTree picks the Bully because StarTree imagines him to be the best at editting videos! Bully. There is no evidence linking anyone else at the moment. Sasha: Bonus clue 2 unlocked. Would someone who has just been released from prison be so eager in murder? I pick the brother. But there is no physical evidence pointing to him. I just thought that the chance of a negative proof with the bully is high. I didn't plan to get an Arcacia Award. Sasha: Is @James picking a suspect? We'll continue with Bonus Clue #1 next. I pick the victim. He did try to kill himself twice. Zoey: This is like Arcacia giving everyone a second chance since we are all wrong. XD Sasha: Okay. There is no third bonus clue. I will let those who only got one AA decide on the first bonus clue. I think it is worth using it on the Bully in case he has a compelling excuse. We only have this chance to save ourselves. Sasha: It is first come first serve. So let's do it!
⭐ [183] Bully

Bonus Clue 1

Ivy: The piple section that Zoey brought back after the rain has a shred of fingernail matching the Bully's DNA.
I think this points to the Bully replaced a pipe that is would break to one that would not break. As a result, the victim is dead. I am staying with my choice. James: I switch to the Bully. Sasha: I switch also. Sasha: @Evelyn, Tanya? Tanya: I am convinced. Switch. Evelyn: Please let me switch also. Sasha: Okay. Now we are unanimous. Which is actually how the game was designed to be. Sasha: Ivy, Zoey, and StarTree can pick the second bonus clue. Zoey: Let's finish the crime scene.
⭐ [31] Crime Scene

Bonus Clue 2

Zoey: First the step, then the pipe. Who was trying to make sure that suicide succeed? Was it the victim or the assistant?
As I said, since the chiseled pipe has DNA of the Bully, the evidence points to the Bully to be the one not surprised at the victim's death. Zoey: I know. But that was the clue. It is redundant. XD Ledia: It seems that the game wants us to win. Sasha: Okay. Drumroll!
🥁 [50] Blogger

Unused Round 3 Clue

Black: At the Blogger's garage, the Blogger kept silent about the murder. Then Black received the message when StarTree decripted the video.
🥁 [25] Blogger

Unused Round 4 Clue

Black: The night after Black visited the Blogger, the Blogger ranted at this blog that the detectives tried to trick him into saying something they could use. "What rookies," rants the Blogger, "They probably don't even have a clue how [the victim] died. Anyone could have made that murder look like a suicide. You just have to put the wrong things in the right place, right J.?" Black recognizes that 'J' is the initial of the first name of the Bully, who is the prime suspect.
🥁 [65] Reverend

Unused Round 3 Clue

Ledia: Ledia arrived at the lunch meeting and saw the Reverend punch the older brother. It seemed that they have been arguing for a while. The older brother was knocked to the floor and a letter popped out of his jacket. "Get me to a hospital, I might be cut!" screams the brother.
🥁 [149] Brother

Unused Round 4 Clue

LRRH: Little Red tells Ledia what the fight was about. "The Reverend wants drug from the Brother. The Brother said he can't get him more, and the Reverend hit him," says Red. The letter that the brother dropped was from a prescription drug company asking the brother why he kept asking for more without a prescription.
🥁 [117] Reverend

Unused Round 4 Clue

Ledia: Ledia remembered Evelyn saying that the victim could be unconscious when he was killed. "I think we need more information on what this drug does, and if the victim had this drug in his blood," says Ledia.
🥁 [261] The Victim

Unused Round 4 Clue

James: James read Evelyn's notes about the white spots on the vicim's tongue. "Oral thrush," James think to himself. Then he notices a rip in the vicim's sneaker. "So you were the one who stepped on the broken step," thinks James, as he checks the victim's blood test result: "HIV positive..."
James the detective thinks that the murderer replaced the pipe so that noose would kill, and chiseled the step so that the victim could not save himself. After the murder, the murderer replace the broken step to make it look like the victim could have saved himself if he didn't mean to commit suicide. Sasha: Next is the solution, will everyone get it right?
🛎️ SOLUTION

Sasha: The murderer is the Bully!
Motive: The Bully wanted revenge against the victim for putting him in prison despite the victim had forgiven him.
Opportunity: The victim wanted to be friend with the Bully when the Bully was released from prison. He even offered to hire him for the project of faking his own death.
Means: The victim wanted to fake and boardcast his own suicide for the town to see, but the Bully took advantage and rigged the pipe and the step. The victim's plan was for the pipe to snap as needed, but the Bully replace that with a pipe that would not snap. The victim planned to jump off a step after putting on the noose. But the Bully modified the step so that the step would break when the victim steps on it after putting on the noose.
Sasha: Everyone got the right murderer! Please return for the next case!
Sasha thanks the players!

This is Magic Bakery plays Consulting Detective, The Baker Street Irregulars Case 1!

💬 About

Sasha: The goal of this game is to solve the case with fewer clues than Holmes. The players cooperate, but each player decide which clue to reveal in their turn. We track each clue that we reveal. When we think that we have revealed enough clues (or earlier), we can see the questions we need to answer to earn points. Then based on our answers and the number of clues we used, we will get a score. If our score is more than 100, then we beat Holmes.
🚨 Case Info: November 19, 1885

Amelia: Our client is a governess who was kidnapped on November 16 (Mon) and was released the next day in the afternoon. She is afraid that she would be kidnapped again and wanted our help to identify the kidnappers. She was blindfolded all the way. From what she could hear, she believes that she was brought outside the city, and there were at least two kidnappers, one of them might be a woman according to her voice. She heard from kidnappers conversation that because no one was paying the ransom, so they decide to release her.
Amelia: According to the newspaper on November 19, 1885, the police believes that the kidnappers also kidnapped someone from the Dunsworthy family.
44: What is a governess? Black: It is a private nanny. 44: What is laudanum? Black: It is a 10% percent opium alcohol. Sasha: So we will take turn deciding what clue to reveal. Black: The directory shows only one address for Dunsworthy family, 43SW. My suggestion is to go to Scotland Yard to get the police report of the Dunsworthy case.
🔍 13 SW Scotland Yard

Black: Black goes to Scotland Yard for the police report on the previous kidnapping of the Mary Dunsworthy. In that case, Lady Dunsworthy paid ransom. The victim was released before they family informed the police. The inspector said if we want more information we could ask Murray the Criminiologist.
Black: This report wasn't as informative as I expected. Maybe if we want more information we need to visit the Dunsworthy. Sasha: Or the victim Wendy Sturton's family. StarTree: "Sturton" is not in the directory!
🔍 43 SW Dunsworthy

44: Lady Dunsworthy is an old lady with French accent. August 25, the driver of the daughter saw struck from behind after stopping. Details were similar for the Wendy Sturton kidnap. Mary Dunsworthy was kidnapped for about a week. The fireplace was burning all the time.
The "fireplace" that is burning all the time might be some type of oven in a factory, since it was in the summer.
🔍 22 SW Murray (Criminologist) [C]

Base Clue

Amelia: Amelia visits the criminologist for further information. The criminologist says that the two kidnappings don't seem to be done by the same group. The second group seems to have copied the first group by writing similar notes (but with different handwriting), and with a similar red scarf for the blindfold (but with different material for the scarf), and the ropes for tying were of different thickness. The mud at the bottom of their shoes were also different, which he had sent to our office. Circle C needed for the rest of the clues.
The first red scarf was made of cotton, the second made of cotton and silk. I think maybe Lady Dunsworthy did the copycat kidnap to recoup the ransom money, but gave up after learning the second family won't pay.
🔍 42 NW 221B Baker Street [C, F, J, T, Z]

Base Clue

LRRH: Holmes looked at the mud sample and said it is uncontaminated, clearly not from the London streets. He asked us to determine whether the kidnapping was done by the same gang who took Mary Dunsworthy, if not, who might have done it since the press did not report many facts, and why Wendy Sturton (instead of another governess) was kidnapped considering her habits.
I think we already have answers to the first two question. About Ms. Sturton's habit: She likes to walk alone at the park in the early morning. But her kidnapping did not occur when she was doing that walk. She was kidnapped in the afternoon on her way to get medicine. She went because the bottle was empty. She was kidnapping not during her routine. Why didn't the kidnapper kidnap her when she was in the park?
🔍 61 NW Kenneth Train

Sasha: Sasha visits Kenneth Train, the family where Wendy is a governess. Mr. Train says the note demanded £2000 by dawn of the next day, which is nearly impossible to arrange, even though he does have a rich uncle (who did reply the next day that he could assist partially). Mrs Train seems sad at the visit. Mr. Train explains that his wife is stressed by various unfortunate events this year: She herself getting sick, her daugther coughing, and his mother's dying.
I think maybe Laetitia Train (the wife), who knows that his husband's uncle is rich, and planned the kidnapping. So she wants to get money to treat her daughter's illness. She might have learned the details about the Dunsworth case from someone of the Dunsworth family. I was just wondering if the kidnapper used their own carriage or hired a carriage. But there is no clue at 5 WC.
🔍 75 SW Sally Train

Amelia: The newspaper has an obituary of Sally Train, who I think is the death mother of Mr. Train. At her address, her house is for sale and her brother is in charge of the sales.
I think we can check the brother for clues next. But how would that be related to the case? We lose points if we follow irrelevant leads. 44: Isn't the scoring wrong? Shouldn't it reward detectives for being thorough? Sasha: I think when we see how it is scored after this game we will know if it is fair. 44: But the brother is the uncle who might help pay.
🔍 62 SW Laurence Yale (Sally Train's brother)

44: We tried to talk to the uncle but his bulter turned us away.
🐣 5 WC Central Carriage Stables

No Clue

🔍 63 NW (Near the kidnapping)

44: I go to the intersection where Wendy was kidnapped. The old man there said he had already told the police that he saw nothing out of ordinary.
🔍 75 NW Edgar Newmarch

Amelia: Mr. Newmarch is another tutor of the Trains family, who also know Wendy's habit, but does not seem to know that she would go out to buy medicine.
⭐ 95 NW Hyde Park - Plant Nursery ⭐J

44: I go to the park to check where Wendy might normally go. It is a greenhouse with a small lodge. No one answered but there was with a delivery list.

LRRH: Holmes recognizes the name Grace Allende from the delivery list, who only signs for special deliveries.
💡
Black: The name Grace Allende is mentioned in the Newspaper on the art gallery where Allende is a friend of the Dunsworthy in their invigation only gallery.
🔍 39 EC Emeline Manton (Mary's Artist Friend)

💡
Amelia: A room full of canvas paintings. Ms. Manton confirmed that the people at the art gallery are Mary Dunsworthy's friends. The newspaper mentioned 7 names including Ms. Manton. Five of them don't have a directory listing. Harbuck is found twice on the directory.
🔍 55 SE M. Harbuck (Mary's Friend)

💡
44: Outside the residence, Mr. Harbuck's fiancee, who again confirms that Mary told her friends about the details.
🔍 95 NW Hyde Park - Lodge

💡
Zoey: Zoey thinks the victim was actually still in London when she was held. She investiages the lodge, which seems vacant. There is a carriage there. And there is a grand fireplace inside.
The newspaper has a to the editors section where someone complained about smoking.
🔍 95 NW Hyde Park - Police Station ⭐L

Amelia: There is a police officer there that seems to have a mutual liking with Wendy.
⭐ 95 NW Hyde Park - Gunpowder Magazine ⭐C

Amelia: The gunpowder magazine has not been in disused for awhile. Found partly smoked expensive cigar and recent carriage tracks and footprints.

Murray

Amelia: Murray said we should consult a tobacoist.

Holmes

LRRH: Holmes says that the footprints indicates that the smoker took a breath of the cigar then dropped it, but from the footprints, he wasn't surprised or running away. Why did he stop smoking?
🔍 35 WC Amber & Co. (Tobacconist) [C]

Black: The cigar is imported from West Indies.
Grace Allende receives deliveries from West Indies.
🔍 27 SW Bradford Levin (Mary's friend)

In the newspaper, "Levin Twins" refers to someone with the lastname Levin.
Black: At the resident, we are told that the twins had left for Paris.
🔍 93 NW Patrick O'Hara (Mary's friend) [T]

Black: We don't know Grace Allende's brother Patrick's lastname. There is a patrick on the directory, but we need clue [T] to reveal this clue.
🔍 30 EC Times Reporter

Sasha: The Times Reporter confirmed that the details were not released by the police to the newspaper.
Let's look for clues from those who would buy such cigar.
🔍 31 SW Clarendon Family (Cigar Buyer)

44:
🔍 42 WC Oswald Mason (Cigar Buyer)

🔍 2 SW Social Columnist

⭐ 52 EC Raven & Rat Pub ⭐T

93 NW - Clue T

44: Edward Ivory.
⭐ 41 NW Edward Ivory ⭐Z

44: Professor Moriaty

Holmes

LRRH: Holmes has a note that demands payment by November 17 8 AM.
🔍 83 WC Doctor Richards

Amelia: The doctor said Duncan Train has an allergy to chrysanthemum.
🔍 81 SW Wilma Krath (Train's previous maid)

Amelia: She got married so she quit being a maid.
🔍 24 NW Waldenboch Florist

Amelia: Mrs. Train bought chrysanthemum recently.
I think Mrs. Train got addicted to Laudanum, then to harder drugs. She poisoned her own son to get a supply of laudanum for her fix. But she needs more money to get the harder drug. So she kidnapped Wendy. Still missing why Mrs. Train knows about the detail of Mary's kidnapping. Let's find the police officer who switched with the Wendy's lover.
🔍 26 SW Maxwell Ponsford

Black: Smokes cigars. Confirmed that he swapped with the other office on November 16. Seems to be hiding something. He has a green box in his house full of expensive cigars.
⭐ 11 EC Clyde Nestor (Receiver at park nursery) ⭐A

Black: Apparently Nestor is the manager at the nursery, but he is not at his resisdent at the moment. The landlady says he went to sell an old wardrobe 20 minutes ago. Newspaper.
🔍 87 SW Keene & Ashwell (Chemist)

🔍 45 EC Charter House [A]

Amelia: Found Nestor selling the wardrobe.
🔍 95 NW Hyde Park - Humane Society

🔍 17 WC National Archive [F]

🐣 38 EC Medical Examiner

Black: The Medical Examiner says that there seems to be no relation between the suicides (as we could read from the Newspaper) and the kidnaps.
🐣 54 NW Bradley's (Tobacconist)

Black: I was wondering if the cigars were being sold to a shop. But the shop referred us to Amber & Co.
🐣 20 WC Simpson's Cigar Divan (Tobacoonist)

Black: I was wondering if the cigars were being sold to a shop. But the shop referred us to Amber & Co. The switch is for the whole week so Wendy won't see the exchange on November 17th.
🐣 4 SW Haymarket Theatre

44: Eliza Delane
⭐ 58 SW Sir Colin Pickwick ⭐F

Clue L

44: Sir Colin lets his children Patrick and Grace take care of the park. Patrick has a small green box of cigar also. Grace disclosed that she was in West Indies, where her husband Eduardo died by illness. Plot point F.

42 NW Holmes - Clue F

LRRH: Holmes noted that Sir Colin ordered a review of all the buildings in the park, and that that they also have those green boxes.

17 WC National Archive - Clue F

StarTree: Grace Pickwick was born 1863 and was married to Eduardo Allende in 1883.
💬 Questions Discussion

LRRH: We think we are close but stuck. This is a recap of the questions.

First Series

Question 1-1: Who kidnapped Wendy Sturton? Patrick, Grace, and Maxwell (The Police Officer). Why didn't they just say the park was closed? I think that is because if they put a sign or tell Wendy that the park is closed, people can ask about it and they would be found out. I think the police officer didn't take part in the kidnapping because he seemed to have connected the dots only after the detectives asked about it. Then Patrick and Grace only, since Wendy's account just said two people. Amelia: Is the Train house close to Pickwick house? StarTree: The Train House is in NW the Pickwick house is in SW! Black: A question remainis on how the kidnappers know when Wendy would exit the Train house, and why didn't the kidnappers kidnapper her at the park if they know her routine.
Question 1-2: Why?
Question 1-3: What was Constable Ponsford's involvement?
Question 1-4: What deal was being done?

Second Series

Question 1-5: Who was the buying in the deal?
Question 1-6: What is wrong with little Duncan Train?
Question 1-7: What is the story behind his illness?
🍮 Scoring and Gameplay Discussion

Sasha: This section is for discussing about our playing of the game.
Sasha: Next time I will scan and make copies of the case book because it is THE bottleneck. Unlike NCIS, we can't eaily take pictures or share. The clues of NCIS is short and easy to summarize. This game the clues are long and we need to revisit or we would miss details. Sasha: I also need more ideas on how to make the gameplay better so we can play the next one. Sasha: And I have problem taking notes fast enough.
Black: I think we need Motive, Means, Opportunity information on the prime suspects, and our chat should really be split per day. Sasha: I will first mark our prime suspects.
Sasha thanks the players!

202212222223|◀ 2022 DEC 28 WED 10:41 PM
Wyvern Island

This is about drafting for Chapter 16 Page 13.

3B: The content of page 12 is a lot different from what we planned because Sasha wanted to use the water element already on stage to cast flash flood. 3B: It is an AE attack, but I think it would be better if someone other than Evelyn responds. 3B: In the last panel of page 12, I drew Zoey holding onto a rope. Sasha is going to cut the rope if that rope does not have a philosophical meaning.
LRRH: I jump onto the turtle also because I agree that self-interest is good sometimes, like when I am asking people for wishes.
Zoey: I think "Self-Interest" and "Personal Desires" are different. Self-Interest is a motive. A personal desire is not necessarily a motive. Zoey: A person can have a personal desire, but they may not be acting on it Tanya: I think we need a node defining Self-Interest. LRRH: Don't we already have a motivation node? StarTree: It was a section in the 202209020848|Compassion node! Tanya: @StarTree please split that into its own node. StarTree: 202212282320|Wee~~!
Zoey: When Red wants to know what people wish for, she doesn't mean that she wants people to *only* act based on self-interest. She just means that she doesn't want people to hide their personal desires. Tanya: It is a subtle difference.
Zoey: For example, in the case of the Abilene Paradox, a solution is people pursuring their self-interesting. Another solution is people disclosing their personal preferences and desires. A person does not need to be motivated by self-interest to disclose their personal preferences and desires.
LRRH: What is the difference between motivation and desire? Tanya: I think desire is a broader term than motivation. You could have a desire that something happens, but no motivation to act toward it. 3B: I think we also need comments on Motivation vs Self-Interest vs Other-Interest, and a node on Abilene Paradox itself with solutions. Let's continue next time. 3B thanks all for the ideas.
Motivation is what drives a person into action. Understanding it helps set people in motion or predict what people would do in a given situation.
When learning is fun, it could also motivate people to apply that learning. So if there is a task you want to motivate people to help on, make it fun to learn about that task. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamarruda/2024/09/10/how-fun-at-work-can-boosts-employee-engagement/ This can be done in many ways, and a way that works for someone could confuse someone else. If the task as many parts, maybe each doer could make it fun in their own way. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamarruda/2024/09/10/how-fun-at-work-can-boosts-employee-engagement/ Sometimes people enjoy accomplishment and do not want complicated tasks. Making it simple allows people to do it as a routine or as an exercise. Nothing fancy. Pure Zen. If a task is boring to do alone, consider also having a team mode for the task. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamarruda/2024/09/10/how-fun-at-work-can-boosts-employee-engagement/ If a task is boring to do under supervision, consider make it soloable, then the doer can do it while also doing anything else that is fun, such as listening to music, talking on the phone, etc. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamarruda/2024/09/10/how-fun-at-work-can-boosts-employee-engagement/ As long as you are rewarding people per task and not per time spent, the doer can pair it with any fun thing. A record of achievement can motivate people to do more. Not necessarily for them to feel superior than others, but an understanding that their contributions are on record. There are some steps to prepare for this, such as keep records and taking before photos for comparison. For this to happen, the task itself should also be purposeful and accepted by the stakeholders. https://www.forbes.com/sites/williamarruda/2024/09/10/how-fun-at-work-can-boosts-employee-engagement/ This changes the task into an automation task and could attract people who find it fun to solve an automation challenge.
